- Dysapoptosis - Prototype Arsenite unleashes a wave of toxic sludge that kills within seconds upon contact.
- Pernicious Vortex - Prototype Arsenite conjures inflowing miasmatic winds that concentrate their deadly fumes in a small radius around itself. Distant targets take less damage, while targets drawn too close will take high damage and become exposed.
- Toxic Slice - Prototype Arsenite sweeps the area in front of it with its greatsword, dealing minor damage.
Relapse - Prototype Arsenite slices through enemies with a backswing that deals increased damage.
- Rupture - Prototype Arsenite places a symbol in front of itself and then shatters it with an upswing of its blade, dealing high damage in a small area. Every other time this attack is used, it fires a Noxious Vaporblade at the furthest non-fixated target.
- Noxious Vapor Blade - A swirling blade comprised of toxic gasses slowly tracks its target. After a short delay or upon striking the target, the blade reverses course at high speed, striking everything in its path. Drops Boiling Aether at the location from which it reversed course.
- Boiling Aether - Scalding aether from the Mists collects into a growing pool. Upon reaching maximum size, the damage increases significantly. Dissipates after a short time.
- Noxious Return - A swirling blade comprised of toxic gasses returns to Prototype Arsenite, striking everything in its path for high damage.
