About:

Candace is a Hydro element character, officially released on September 27, 2022 during the game's 54th character release. Originating from the region of Sumeru, she carries cultural and narrative influences from this place, which directly contribute to she personality and role within the story. In combat, Candace uses a Polearm-type weapon, combined with a Woman body model — factors that influence both fighting style and the character's movement animations and dynamics. With a 4-star rarity, she main attribute is % HP, which is essential for performance in advanced team compositions. Among she base stats, the character has 912 HP, 18 ATK, and 57 DEF — key values for assessing their potential from the early levels all the way to the endgame. Candace's birthday is celebrated on May 3, a fun detail often appreciated by the community. Beyond the technical aspects, the character also features a rich and engaging backstory: "A descendant of King Deshret with an amber left eye. The defender of Aaru Village.".

Performs up to 4 consecutive spear strikes.

TC2: Sacred Rite: Heron's Sanctum

Candace's fighting style is capable of warding off an entire tide of foes.

Tap
Rushes forward with her shield, dealing Hydro DMG to opponents in front of her.

Hold
Raises her shield to block incoming attacks from nearby opponents, forming a barrier that absorbs DMG based on her Max HP and absorbs Hydro DMG 250% more effectively. This barrier lasts until the Elemental Skill is unleashed.
After holding for a certain period of time, Candace will finish charging, and when the skill button is released, the skill duration expires, or when the barrier is broken, she will perform a leaping strike that deals Hydro DMG to opponents in front of her.

The oath of the guardians is more stalwart yet than the shields they inherit.

Raising her weapon on high, Candace calls upon a divine blessing that deals AoE Hydro DMG based on her Max HP and continuously confers the Prayer of the Crimson Crown on your active character.

Prayer of the Crimson Crown
This effect has the following properties:
·Characters deal increased Elemental DMG with their Normal Attacks.
·Whenever a character takes the field, they will unleash a rippling wave of water that deals Hydro DMG to nearby opponents. There is a limited number of waves that can be triggered in the duration of this skill.
·Sword, Claymore, and Polearm-wielding characters under this effect will obtain a Hydro Infusion.
