What Is Conviction DMG Bonus
When there are 4 Declension Stacks, Conviction will automatically trigger. This makes the Elemental Skill be casted with wider AoE and more power.
Elemental Skill Also Provides Elemental Mastery For The Team
Once you unlocked Penetrative Reasoning, using Elemental Skill will buff the team's Elemental Mastery. This is great if you are using Heizou as a Sub-DPS. This will also increase the damage from reactions that is not produced by Heizou.
