Ciel fires faster bullets with longer range while Lu fires slower souls. {{CX}} fires a charged shot. Ciel fires a large condensed instantaneous blast while Lu fires a large soul which is significantly slower.
{{CDR}}{{CZ}} has been reworked, doing hitstun instead of launching the enemy. After doing {{CDR}}{{CZ}} or the standard {{CDR}}{{CX}} perform another quick swipe towards the enemy and enter '''Sniper Mode'''.
A maximum of 5 set of barrages can be launched. You are still able to execute the charged shot after firing at most four barrages.
