Description

A gremor using Gale Lunge

Galebreathe is an Attunement that grants the user the ability to manipulate, conjure and control winds, giving them access to abilities that focus on movement, projectiles, and large AoE. As well as possessing the ability to lower attack speed when hitting an opponent with a gale mantra.

Galebreathe also has Talents attributed to it as well, allowing the user to fully expand their connection with the atmosphere.

Obtainment

The Attunement can be unlocked by using a Skyblood potion obtained from the Attunement Trainer, Friid, located in the Isle of Vigils, just outside the Temple of the Blade, using two Gale Stones assuming you have Galebreathe unlocked, or 5 Gale Stones if you haven't already unlocked Galebreathe. Alternatively, you can simply pick the Random option when selecting your Attunement in the character creation screen, this has a chance of unlocking Galebreathe without you needing to unlock it yourself. If you don't get it the first time, you can just wipe and retry until you get it. This works for all other Attunements as well (excluding Shadowcast, Ironsing and Bloodrend).

Training

Galebreathe can be trained by using a combination of Gale Kata and Galebreathe Mantras.

Along with all other elements, users can see their Mantras becoming stronger with practice:

• At 1 Galebreathe, players will receive the Galebreather Talent. This allows players to obtain 0-star Galebreathe Mantras.
• At 20 Galebreathe, players will receive the Adept Galebreather Talent. This allows players to obtain 1-star Galebreathe Mantras.
• At 30 Galebreathe, players will receive the Expert Galebreather Talent. This allows players to obtain 2-star Galebreathe Mantras.
• Finally, at 50 Galebreathe, players will receive the Master Galebreather Talent. This allows players to obtain 3-star Galebreathe Mantras.

Galebreathe Mantras are upgraded at the Attunement Trainers and Friid.

• To upgrade a Galebreathe Mantra from level 1 to level 2 costs 100 and requires 20 Galebreathe investment.
• To upgrade a Galebreathe Mantra from level 2 to level 3 costs 200 and requires 40 Galebreathe investment.
• To upgrade a Galebreathe Mantra from level 3 to level 4 costs 300 and requires 60 Galebreathe investment.
• To upgrade a Galebreathe Mantra from level 4 to level 5 costs 400 and requires 80 Galebreathe investment.

Upgrading your Mantras with the Songwright NPC will cost 50% more Notes.

Galebreathe Unbound can be obtained by defeating any humanoid boss (Duke, Chaser, Ferryman, etc), while having 75 points invested into the attunement.

Trivia

• The old Rising Wind mantra probably is referenced from Shoryuken move in Street Fighter.
• The Windwaker Talent is a direct reference to the Legend of Zelda main series game "The Wind Waker," both in name and function, as there is a special song you can play to cause the winds to propel your boat.
• After expressing a desire to make a new 0 Star Mantra for Galebreathe, developer ragoozer was presented with an image created by discord user Necros75, which he promptly added to the game as Gale Kick.
• Bosses are completely immune to suffocation.
• Light Green Mudskippers are able to use a buffed version of the Air Force mantra, with greater knockback.
• Arch_mage stated that Galebreathe is "least me" out of all the elements.

  

  

• The "Wind Step" Talent can be used by other players for a short period after being placed.
• The "Gale Leap" Talent requires cliffs of certain height. Strangely, the Talent will not proc if used too close to the edge, requiring the user to jump earlier than expected.
• The [Q] key activates Gale Dash.
• For some bizarre reason, Heavenly Wind has been referred to as Heavenly Strike multiple times in the update logs.
• Jumping before activating the "Tempest Wind" variant of Wind Blade will propel the user forward by a few studs while releasing a sound cue.
• A few Talents require to Inhale mantras, which acts like a cancel but are performed differently:
  • Cast the mantra then press M2 to Inhale, you know you're doing it right when you hear an inhale sound.
• Galebreathe can apply 2 status effects: "Winded" & "Suffocate".
  • "Winded" reduces your opponent's attack speed.
  • "Suffocate" prevents the opponent from using mantras; the opponent will also have a resonance-like effect circling their neck when applied.
• Allows for arguably the most agile and swift mobility in Deepwoken.
• Heavenly Wind may also double as a mobility mantra as you can take advantage of its upward boost by cancelling the mantra.
• Wind Blade with its Talent "Tempest Leap" can double as a very decent ranged/melee attack and an upgraded version of uppercut.
• The "Gale Leap" Talent can prove volatile unless managed with care. You may potentially rocket off a slope or cliff unfavorably which makes your practice with quick reactions and mobility very important.
• The majority of Galebreathe mantras have potentially high range, allowing you to pose an imminent threat to players without often being within their effective range.
• The wind phantom visual from the "Haunted Gale" Talent appears to wield a Whaling Knife with a thick green outline around it.
• The "Tempest Wind" Variant of Wind Blade can be deceptively useful by slide jumping and immediately M1 which will keep it active long enough for you to cast it after the M1.
  • Alternatively, you could cast it early to feint the M1 but due to its low windup, it's very difficult to parry or punish unless it's used by itself. However, letting the aerial M1 hit before casting it is very powerful because it leaves no room for a counterattack after blocking or rolling the M1, but this is negated by parries.
• Pairing this attunement along the Jetstriker Oath can ultimately make it one of the best mobility builds, given Galebreathe's wide variety of mobility moves and Jetstriker's mobility-based kit. The Wind Step and Aerogliding Talents, along with all of the Jetstriker Talents makes it nearly impossible to catch if you plan on running from an unwinnable fight. Can sometimes even be used to escape Monsters such as the Megalodaunt. One great weapon paring with this attunement is the Curved Blade of Winds, this legendary weapon has 2 forms that compliment both styles of Galebreathe.
• Galebreathe is good for pressuring an opponent thanks to its high mobility.
• Tornado would sometimes be referred to as "Wind Eruption" in patch notes. This is because its internal Mantra ID is "Eruption:Wind".
• Wind Passage shares it's startup sound with Shadow Assault.
