Overall
Talene is a frontline phoenix who trades ally health for protection and hits hard up close. She consumes a chunk of each ally's current health to grant them shields worth triple what was taken — and those shields also regenerate health over time. Her blade attacks carve through nearby enemies and leave burning ground that weakens enemy damage output. When she dies, she enters a fireball state and eventually revives; allies taking damage while she's down accelerates her return. With her awakening skill active, every allied critical strike triggers bonus damage from Talene onto the target. If the ally who crit is lower health than the enemy, the hit heals them instead of dealing extra damage. These triggers accumulate, and at regular intervals Talene heals herself and her most injured ally. This rewards crit-heavy teams and keeps both Talene and her squishiest teammate alive through sustained fights.

Whenever an allied hero lands a Critical Strike on an enemy, Talene uses the power of Solaris to deal additional damage to the target equal to 240% of her Attack Rating. Each allied hero may only trigger this skill once every 2 seconds. When this skill triggers, if the allied hero has a lower health percentage than the target, the allied hero will recover health equal to 40% of Talene’s Attack Rating. If not, the additional damage will be increased to 320% of Talene’s Attack Rating. Every 20 times this skill is triggered, Talene and 1 of her most injured allies will recover health equal to 160% of Talene’s Attack Rating.
Talene spreads her wings and deals 190% damage 8 times to all enemies in front of her, after which Talene and any allies behind her have the damage they receive reduced by 35% for the following 8 seconds. Effect cannot be stacked. When the ability “A New Dawn” is being used, Talene becomes immune to damage and control effects.
Talene swings her Blade of Resurgence, dealing 200% damage 2 times to all enemies within range. Talene then brings down her blade upon the enemies before her, dealing 280% damage to them.
Every time Talene dies, she transforms into a fireball. While in a Fireball state, she is not considered as a living hero, therefore cannot be attacked or receive the effects of her allies.
Talene shakes her wings, consuming 30% of all her allies’ current health in order to grant them a shield which has a value equal to 3 times the amount of health that was consumed.
