Tips and Details

• Each of the 4 planets surrounding you deal damage the entire time they orbit around you, including while in the back- and foreground, so it can only deal full damage to enemies you can stand in front of like Chaos Leviathan.
  • On average, due to the way the planets orbit, enemies on your left side will take 36 hits, while enemies on your right will take 42 hits.
    • The Unfortune effect of Natal Chart can be used to ensure the skill deals more hits than usual on most targets as the planets' orbit is shrunken down with you, dealing 41 hits on your left side, and 47 hits on your right.
• If you use this skill right before stage transition, the orbiting planets will not come out in the next stage, contrary to the buff that is applied very early in the skill.
• Only your initial casting animation is affected by action speed; the planets will always rotate at the same speed.

Trivia

• This skill's name is a term used in astronomy to refer to the orbital motion of objects in relation to a central object.
