Overview
Arriving in style, Hazama is BlazBlue Entropy Effect's second DLC character. Brandishing his signature butterfly knives and wielding the powerful Nox Nyctores: Ouroboros, Hazama will fly across the screen while slashing hundreds of times. Not limited to just his knives, Hazama has several attacks that have a snake-like appearance and enormous range or speed. Utilizing Jormungandr to drain the MP of enemies he is attacking, Hazama is extremely MP efficient and has a seemingly endless supply of MP to devastate his opponents.
Prototype Abilities
Talent: Gaze of the Serpent
Dealing damage while close to an enemy while increase your overall damage from far away by +20%. Dealing while far away will increase your overall damage while close by +20%. The buff lasts 4 seconds and both can be active at the same time. A dynamic Talent that is perfect for Hazama who is constantly weaving in and out of the enemy's range to capitalize on his excellent movement. While it can be hard for some Prototypes to use it, any that can attack from afar consistently will appreciate this small damage buff.
Unique Mechanics:
Jormungandr and MP Absorption: Hazama specializes in absorbing MP from enemies to allow him to continuously use his Universal Skills and SP Skills. The first way this is done is through Jormungandr. Holding Skill will release the Jormungandr ring which will continuously absorb MP from enemies within its radius. Later, this will increase the MP absorption rate of your Universal Skills that hit within its radius as well. Upgrading your Universal Enhancements will contribute to his Hidden Effects, making it so many of his Universal Skills and Attacks will become completely MP self-sufficient.
Ouroboros: Ouroboros is Hazama's main movement gimmick. After unlocking "Pressing Any Direction + Action again before Ouroboros returns will drag Hazama toward the end of the chain", you will be able to travel anywhere the chain can reach which having Dodge Frames. While initially, this may seem a bit useless on its own, the myriad of Hidden Effects that Hazama can unlock will turn it into a versatile movement, combo, and counter tool. Once unlocking "Venomous Bite", Hazama gains full Invincible Dodge Frames while also being able to trigger a strong counterattack if he is attacked while swinging. Mix that with his increased MP absorption and Hazama can go completely un-killable as long as you are able to main his SP regeneration through MP absorption. Many of the upgrades from Potentials and Hidden Effects require tricky input combinations, most requiring you to hold the Action button while mashing or clicking Attack and/or Skill. While changing the controller layout may help ease the use of these moves, these combinations are much easier to hit when playing on keyboard as you can set the keys to whatever layout you need without sacrificing one button for another.
Legacy Skill 1: Jormungandr
Activates the Jormungandr aura around your Prototype. Enemies within its ring will have their HP and MP stolen and given to your Prototype. The duration and absorption rate increases with each level. Because this Legacy Skill only mimics Hazama's very basic form of Jormungandr, the MP absorption rate is very low. While it can be increased in Transcendence mode, it will not make a large impact on your gameplay.
Legacy Skill 2: Ouroboros
Releases the Ouroboros chain in the direction you are holding. Holding the Legacy button will drag an enemy hit by the chain toward you, while tapping the Legacy button will instead drag you toward the end of the chain. Hitting an enemy with the chain will reduce the cooldown time. Damage increases and cooldown decreases with each level. While this may seem awkward, this Legacy Skill gives every character in the game a form of good vertical movement. Lacking any of the potential combinations that Hazama has, using this Legacy Skill for movement instead will provide more value.
