Depend on Higasa when it rains bullets. Aiming creates a shield that blocks weapon fire. Kills and blocked shots charge a beam released by Alternate Fire.

Higasa is  Koumei's signature gun umbrella. Its primary fire shoots burst-fire rounds and that builds charges on kills to allow use of the Alternate Fire involving a powerful  Blast laser. Aiming down sights opens the umbrella to project a field that nullifies projectiles and charges the Alternate Fire.

  • Primary fire shoots 5-round bursts.

    • Cannot fire without a full gauge.
    • Killing an enemy with the primary fire will fill 10% of the gauge. Blocking an enemy attack fills 10% of the gauge per second for 2 seconds.
