Garuda - Abilities & How To Use

Deadly Embrace

Very powerful feat to draw against easy enemies and down on strong enemies which is 50 % staggered. Can be used even if you are in the air, so it is useful to activate it in the air against easy enemies.

Rook's Gambit

An ability that takes the place of evasion. Activating it just in time against an enemy attack greatly increases its power and shortens the interval between uses by 1/3. This is a ability suited for boss battles, and activation just in time is extremely important, so it takes some getting used to.

Gouge

The number of attacks increases with a series of button presses, and the attack movement becomes faster. When Stagger enemies immediately after the attack, the damage multiplier is increased with Gouge, and the other abilities are powerful enough to aim for large damage with a single blow. Since it can be used in the air, it can also be used to chase down launched enemies.

Wicked Wheel

A ability that allows you to leap while launching enemies. It is powerful when used in combination with abilities that can be used in the air. Since this ability itself can also be activated in the air, it can be used in combos such like other launchable ability, then wicked wheel.

Aerial Blast

When activated, it creates a huge tornado that follows the enemy. The tornado continues to chase and attack the enemy until it disappears, and because of its wide range, it is useful in both group battles and single boss battles.
