Hollow Saint
Bank Static Charges, then unleash a bouncing Hollowed Orb, a broad Thundercloud or a charged Gaze. A storm-saint survivor with chain lightning, Stormspear and an open lightning crown.
About this mod Machine translation
English | 简体中文 | Русский | Português (BR)
A cracked devotional icon that answers only to the storm.
Chain lightning through a pack, pin the biggest threat with a spear of lightning, and bank every Electrocute as a Static Charge.
Then spend the bank: on a Thunderbolt that rides your next spear, or on a charged Gaze that opens with a blast.

What's new in 1.2
Gaze of the Hollow is rebuilt around your Static Charges.
- Charge it up. Hold Special and your stored charges spiral into the crown one at a time, each with a rising power-up sound. Aim while you gather.
- Open with a blast. The beam opens by firing every charge you drew in at once. The crown flares and kicks back, a wave rides down the beam and the hit grows bigger and wider with every charge (600% per charge).
- Surge on demand. During the beam, hold Primary to load up to three charges and release to fire them as one surge (400% per charge).
- Watch your feet. Every surge also drops a bolt onto the closest enemy within 14 m, so whatever closes in under the hover gets hit while you aim elsewhere.
Also in 1.2: a 3D Stormspear impact that grows with charge, Static Charges that wait for you instead of discharging on their own, an Open Circuit crown whose lightning crawls over the terrain, a new mastery skin (Crimson Vow), a sound and visual cleanup and shorter, clearer skill text. Full list in the changelog.
Early access: Hollow Saint is still being tuned, so expect balance changes and the occasional bug. Your feedback shapes the next patch. In-game skill descriptions always show the numbers for your current settings.

Answered Prayer Passive
Your hits build Static on enemies. Full Static Electrocutes: the enemy is shocked and the arc jumps to its neighbours. Every Electrocute stores a Static Charge (up to five). A full bank turns your next Stormspear throw into a Thunderbolt, and Gaze spends charges on its blasts and surges. Charges never go off on their own.
Arc Bolt Primary
Snap a bolt that chains to up to three more enemies. It is your steady pressure and the fastest way to spread Static across a group.
Stormspear Secondary
Hold to form a spear of lightning, release to throw. It sticks in what it hits, then bursts in a dome of lightning that grows with charge. A full charge also calls a lightning strike, and a full Static bank turns it into a Thunderbolt.
Arc Step Utility
Blink a short way in any direction, even mid-air. Look up to climb, and jump out of a step to keep its momentum. Two charges: one to find an angle, one to get out.
Gaze of the Hollow Special
Hold to draw your Static Charges into the crown, then rise and channel a piercing beam for seven seconds. The beam opens by firing everything you gathered in one blast. While it burns, hold and release Primary for surges, each with a lock-on bolt at the nearest enemy. You take less damage while you gather and channel. Tap Special to skip the charge-up; Special or UI Cancel ends the beam early, and Utility exits straight into your Arc Step.
Open Circuit Alternate special
Open the halo into a crown that strikes everything around you for ten seconds while you keep fighting. Stormspear charges much faster under it, and a fully charged crown spear calls a Thunderbolt. Enemies that stay inside for three seconds take an extra zap.
How the storm works
- Static. Every hit charges the enemy. Bigger hits, critical strikes and high-proc items charge it fast
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
