ILLUGA COMPLETE GUIDE
CHARACTER OVERVIEW
Powerful Geo support with Nightingale's Song
Illuga is a 4-Star Geo Polearm support character who enhances team damage through her Elemental Burst. When her Burst is activated, Illuga deals AoE Geo DMG and enters the Haunted Night's Oriole-Song state, granting her 21 stacks of Nightingale's Song.
While this effect is active, each time the on-field character deals Geo DMG through Normal, Charged, or Plunging Attacks, as well as Elemental Skills or Bursts, one stack of Nightingale's Song is consumed to amplify that damage. The strength of this bonus scales with Illuga's Elemental Mastery.
If the triggering attack causes a Lunar-Crystallize reaction, the damage bonus is further increased, making Illuga an especially powerful support for Geo-focused teams. Her passive talent Torchforger's Covenant grants party-wide buffs to Geo DMG, CRIT Rate, and CRIT DMG, solidifying her role as a cornerstone support for Geo compositions.
