How to get Rockburst
Teachable via Ground Skill Fruit: Rockburst. Feed the fruit to any Pal — see all Skill Fruit Tree locations for where it spawns. 24 Pals also learn it natively (see list below).
Ground Skill Fruit: Rockburst turns up in 16 loot tables — 5 relic recyclers, 4 Skill Fruit trees, 3 chests — with the best odds at a Feybreak skill-fruit tree, 2.7% a roll. The Arena Merchant sells it at Arena Shop 1 for 30 Battle Tickets.
Rockburst can be inherited through breeding. Breeding gives a 50% chance to pass down one active skill from either parent, and it can be any skill they know — not just the four they have equipped. Plan a pair in the breeding calculator.

When to use Rockburst
Rockburst is a balanced mid-range hit — 300 power on a 16-second window leaves room in the rotation for one filler skill between casts, a flexible slot for most teams. It also applies muddy, so leading the rotation with it locks the target before your bigger hitters land.
