force blast can also be used with the encrypted orchid

Chaos 9

HOWEVER Valkyrie Sword can do a Force Blast Technique without having it mastered

Anonymous 8

Mechwarrior is right, there's no secret move for the valkyrie sword. This whole guild is bad, the sword is in the second twin tower hidden below the shield outsider, dimension shift required.

Noredine 7

you could also learn Force Blast with Red Umbrella

Mechwarrior 6

The Valkyrie Sword's Secret Technique is actually just the hit effect from the Sword technique Parry.
