Upgrade choice · level 5

  • Charge forward with breathtaking speed. If this move hits an enemy from point-blank range, its cooldown is reset and it restores the user's HP. However, the cooldown cannot be continually reset by using this move on the same enemy multiple times in succession.

    Level 11: Increases Attack for a short time when this move is used.

  • Charges power before unleashing a powerful attack. While the user is charging power, its movement speed is decreased but its Attack slowly increases and the damage it receives is reduced. The user then charges in the designated direction and releases this move, dealing more damage the lower the enemies remaining HP is. The next basic attack becomes a boosted attack if the move hits. This move's cooldown is reduced every time one of the user's moves hits.

    Level 11: Become immune to hindrances while charging power.
