- Basic Attack: Deals wind damage to a single enemy with a chance to inflict an Arcana debuff.
- Skill: Inflicts wind damage on multiple enemies and can apply the Arcana debuff.
- Ultimate: Unleashes wind damage on all enemies, inflicting wind shear, bleed, and other DoT effects based on Arcana stacks.
- Talent: Increases the likelihood of enemies receiving an Arcana debuff with each instance of DoT damage.
- Technique: Enhances Black Swan's base chance of inflicting the Arcana debuff on enemies.
