While Denia is in Resonance Mode - Fusion Burst, after Erosion Field deals damage, trigger Fusion Burst on the target based on its max limit. The Fusion Burst DMG triggered gains a 200% DMG Multiplier increase against the main target and does not remove the Fusion Burst stacks on the targets hit. The effect can be triggered on the same target up to 1 time. When the target is damaged by Resonance Liberation Final Act: Breakdown Form, the effect's trigger count is reset. The trigger count can be reset for the same target once every 2s.
