Tips and Details

  • If you don't hold a directional key, pressing the skill button again will send you in the direction you are facing.
  • The attack pierces through opponents, but the lack of  Self BuffSuper ArmorSelf BuffSuper Armor makes it risky to approach enemies with unless the Powerful trait is selected.
  • If neither trait is selected, you are able to space the additional casts while in Gale Mode after unlocking level 2 of Waltz of the Sword to be able to chain the skill indefinitely as long as you have Gale bars remaining. Without cooldown reduction effects however, both traits will make this no longer possible.
  • This skill can be countered.
  • The skill costs a total of 100 MP to perform all slashes, making it rather expensive for an Active skill, but also very powerful in return. Level 4 of Waltz of the Sword reduces the cost per dash, but adds an additional dash, increasing the cost to 105 MP if you want to use all casts possible.
  • The skill's hitbox follows Elesis's sword, making it unable to hit much outside of the dash's area and slightly in front of her. However, with Sword of Victory, the range is extended significantly, allowing her to hit enemies on top of and below platforms, as well as much farther ahead.
