Inaros Abilities
Passive Ability
When Inaros enters bleedout, he entombs himself in a Sarcophagus and incarnates as a sand version of himself, giving him the chance to self-revive.
Inaros will have the ability to siphon the life force of nearby enemies, which eventually allows him to revive himself if no allies are near to help him.
1) Desiccation
Inaros blasts enemies with a wave of cursed sand that blinds enemies, inflicting stagger upon those within range.
In addition to this, Inaros steals a percentage of health based on the damage that is dealt by this ability, providing him with a way to heal himself.
Desiccation (Max Rank)
Stat | Value | Affected By |
Drain | 25 Energy | Ability Efficiency |
| Damage | 150 True | Ability Strength |
Range | 15 Meters | Ability Range |
| Duration | 8 Seconds | Ability Duration |
Damage/Second | 8 True | Ability Strength |
| Life Steal | 25% | N/A |
Augment Mods:
- Desiccation’s Curse causes a Swarm Kavat that can spread Scarab Swarms when an enemy is killed while blinded. Obtained from Arbiters of Hexis/The Perrin Sequence.
2) Sandstorm
Inaros shifts into a living sandstorm, which causes enemies to be lifted, thrown around, and pulled towards him.
Enemies who are pulled into the whirlwind end up being devoured by Inaros, which heals him depending on how many enemies are caught.
Sandstorm (Max Rank)
Stat | Value | Affected By |
Drain | 25 Energy | Ability Efficiency |
| Damage/Second | 500 Slash | Ability Strength |
Radius | 7.5 Meters | Ability Range |
| Duration | 4 Seconds | Ability Duration |
Health/Enemy | 50 | Ability Strength |
Augment Mods:
- Elemental Sandstorm increases Sandstorm’s Ability Range and adds a chance to inflict Status Effects based on the Damage Types of Inaros’ equipped Melee Weapon. Obtained from Arbiters of Hexis/The Perrin Sequence.
3) Scarab Shell
Activating this ability causes Inaros to drain his health to form armor that protects him from damage and absorbs Status Effects.
A bar is displayed showing how much armor is generated, and this ability may be activated early to stop channeling early.
Scarab Shell (Max Rank)
Stat | Value | Affected By |
Drain | 5% | Ability Efficiency |
| Armor | 350 | Ability Strength |
Health | 2,500 | Ability Duration |
Augment Mods:
- Negation Armor prevents Inaros from entering bleedout when taking fatal damage, but results in him receiving the Slash Status effect after a brief period of invulnerability. Obtained from Arbiters of Hexis/The Perrin Sequence.
4) Scarab Swarm
Inaros summons a Scarab Swarm to attack enemies, which guarantees they are inflicted with the Corrosive Status Effect.
Enemies that are killed as a result of this ability will cause a Swarm Kavat to be summoned that fights alongside Inaros, guiding the Scarabs to enemies.
Scarab Swarm (Max Rank)
Stat | Value | Affected By |
Drain | 100 Energy | Ability Efficiency |
| Damage | 241 Corrosive | N/A |
Range | 30 Meters | Ability Range |
| Spread Range | 12 Meters | Ability Range |
Duration | 15 Seconds | N/A |
