Tips and Details

Normal and Reused appearance of the dark aura surrounding Elesis' Claymore while the skill is active.

This skill is heavily affected by attack speed, drastically reducing its hit count at higher amounts. With 0% attack speed, the maximum hit count is 8, while at 20% it drops down to just 6 hits, and further with more attack speed.
The double attack chance stacks with other equipment/set effects/Random Mission that gives double attack chance.
While the buff is active, a dark aura will surround Elesis' claymore.
- The border of the aura changes from red to a deep pink color when re-using the skill.
This skill works extremely well combined with Actives like Dark Wave, as well as combo, due to the large number of hits.

Trivia

This is the only Sword Aura skill that is not a Bravery or Hyper Active skill, instead being Tenacity.
