If Lingyang uses his basic attack after casting Feral Roars and Swift Punches, his attack pattern starts from his third basic attack. Lingyang's Resonance Skill does not reset his basic attack pattern.
- Resonance Liberation: Strive: Lion's Vigor - Lingyang attacks the target with Glacio damage, and receives the blessing of Lion's Vigor, which lasts for 50 seconds. While Lion's Vigor is active, Lingyang's Glacio damage bonus is increased by 50%.

Lingyang's basic active Skills
Lingyang's basic attack can perform up to five consecutive hits that deal Glacio damage, and after the fifth hit, his regular basic attack is replaced with Feral Roars.
For his heavy attack, Lingyang consumes stamina to deal Glacio damage, and he also consumes stamina for his regular mid-air attack to perform a plunging attack that also deals Glacio damage. Lastly, Lingyang can use a basic attack after a successful dodge to deal Glacio damage to a target.
Lingyang's Forte Circuit Skill
When Lingyang's Lion's Spirit is full, he can use a heavy attack to perform a Glorious Plunge that deals Glacio damage. When Lion's Spirit is not full, Lingyang can use a basic attack after a heavy attack instead to perform a Tail Strike that deals Glacio damage.
Lingyang enters the Striding Lion state after using his Glorious Plunge heavy attack, and also by using a basic attack after his Intro Skill or Strive: Lion's Vigor Resonance Liberation is used if his Lion's Spirit is full. In the Striding Lion state, Lingyang's attacks can be launched in mid-air, and if Lingyang is on the ground, he can use a Glorious Plunge heavy attack to get back in the air.
Lingyang's Lion's Spirit is continuously consumed, with the state ending five seconds after his Lion's Spirit runs out, and Concerto Energy is restored when Lion's Spirit is consumed. Additionally, if Lingyang is in the Lion's Vigor state, the consumption speed of Lion's Spirit is reduced by 50%, which can extend Striding Lion by up to 10 seconds.
In the Striding Lion state, Lingyang's regular basic attack is replaced with Feral Gyrate, which can perform up to two consecutive attacks that deal Glacio damage. However, when Lion's Spirit is less than 10, Lingyang can use a basic attack to perform Stormy Kicks, which deal Glacio damage. After Stormy Kicks is used, Lingyang's Radiant Plunge mid-air attack is available. Lingyang's regular Resonance Skill is also replaced with the Mountain Roamer attack, which deals Glacio damage.
Lingyang can hold up to 100 Lion's Spirit, and he accumulates Lion Spirit when his Furious Punches Resonance Skill, Intro Skill, and Strive: Lion's Vigor Resonance Liberation is used.
