- Passive: Renata's basic attacks deal 1/2/5% of the target maximum health as true damage.
- Active: Renata fires a missile that hits all enemies, dealing 200/300/900 magic damage, reducing their magic resist by 1/015/30. At the end of the missile, it will explode. Enemies entering the explosion area will also lose magic resist. The magic reduction can be stacked.
