Basic Attack Notes

Conjure Phantom Orbs

Magic Orbs that track foes and can be upgraded to shoot two at a time.

Rain of Skulls

Can move slowly while the attack charges and it can be upgraded to use four skulls at once.

Wall of Bones

A semi-circle barrier of bones that can be upgraded to larger and more durable protection.

Upgrade Paths

Shade Master

Long Distance Orbs may not seem that useful but these are tracking orbs and the extra range means they can hit foes anywhere on the screen. Caustic Phantom Orbs is a straightforward damage boost. Unstable Phantom Orbs also increase damage in the form of projectiles that explode on contact. The exploding orbs can damage nearby enemies, proving a wider effect for her long-range attack. This path is clearly geared towards boosting Conjure Phantom Orbs so stay back and use a Wall of Bones for protection while bombarding enemies with orb attacks.

Bone Crafter

Compound Fracture turns Wall of Bones into an offensive shield that hurts anything that touches it. This power can turn a shield into an attack by luring enemies into it. Troll Skull is a basic damage boost to Skull Rain, but it gets even better with another upgrade on this path. Master Caster reduces the time to cast both Wall of Bones and Skull Rain! This awesome upgrade helps deal with the long charge time for Skull Rain and is a must to use that attack effectively. The damage ability on Wall of Bones and quicker cast time means it can be created on the go and hurt any foes chasing you.

Soul Gem Ability

Skull Shield: 4000

Skull Rain knocks away enemies and attacks.

This upgrade serves to make Skull Rain an even more vicious attack. One drawback to Skull Rain is that it can take a long time to fully charge. With this power, any enemy that tries to hit Hijinx while she is charging takes damage and gets knocked back.
