== Tips and Details ==
*Due to the hits being spread across a large area, this Art will do significantly less damage to smaller targets.
*As the orbs are spread apart a bit, this Art can only deal all of its damage to large enough targets.
*Due to its high MP usage and spirit energy requirement, it is not recommended in PvP. However, the damage is still remarkable (roughly half of the target's health).
**Using a skill such as [[Suppression: Energy]] or [[Vortex Energy]] after the secret art can pull enemies through the orbs as they explode, allowing the art to deal much more damage even on smaller targets.
*By using [[High Speed]] before all the orbs explode, it is possible to do most hits and compensate for most of the neglected damage.
*[[Purgatory]] cannot be mana broken but you can Mana Break from the individual skills to avoid damage.

*Due to the strange behavior of [[Rakshasa Stance 1: Soul Reaping]] when used close to a target, the Secret Art can actually be started with a mere 2 energy instead of the required 5. This is because Soul Reaping cancels itself and gives you 2 energy (thus 3 in total on 1 target) before Energy Burst is cast (which consumes 3 energy).

*All of the art skills except [[Rakshasa Stance 1: Soul Reaping]] can benefit from being in a [[Transcendence|Transcendent Skill Slot]] when chained into from the art prior to them, gaining the damage increase without consuming the buff.
*Being part of [[Rakshasa Stance 4: Soul Escape]], the art gains damage from any '''Strength''' skill tier damage increases. It does not benefit from '''Soul Escape''''s skill traits however.
