Chain Sweep

Description

A skill perfect for damaging multiple enemies simultaneously. You use this skill to knock them flat on the ground, then attack them at your leisure.

Details

Requires a Chain Blade equipped to use.
Thrusts the chain blade into the ground, causing a knockdown effect at the targeted area, then leaps and sweeps the chain blade twice before jumping back to the original spot.
After loading the skill, the cursor will change to a circle. Clicking the ground will place the attack.
- The cursor's color determines where the attack can be set. Green (over normal ground) indicates the area where the attack can be set in the ground, whereas red (outside range) indicates the area where the attack cannot be set.
- The attack can be set on or through props/physical obstacles, but will not harm any enemies.
There is a brief delay before the character strikes the ground, allowing enemies to walk into or out of the attack.
The user cannot move with Chain Sweep loaded.
The multiple hits dealt by slashes are purely cosmetic.
- The total damage of all the hits is equal to the actual damage dealt.
  - However, unlike Pummel, enemies do not take a minimum of 1 damage per hit and therefore creatures with 100% Damage Reduction from Protection, Level 3 Heavy Stander, or Invulnerability receive only 1 damage from the skill.
- This means that Proficiency is gained and Durability is lost for only one hit rather than two times, Critical Hit is calculated only once rather than separately for each individual hit, and if a Critical Hit is scored, both hits will deal a Critical Hit on all enemies.
Enemies hit will not aggressively aggro the user.
The user will exhibit Advanced Heavy Stander while in use unless they are knocked into Deadly. However, the attack cannot be interrupted even if the user is Knocked Unconscious.
Rank 3 Chain Sweep is required to obtain the quest to learn Bachram Explosion.

Tips

"Get a Critical Hit" counts multiple times if you crit multiple enemies with the skill.
For hitting multiple enemies, the barriers in Tense Escape from Yesterday's Friend Is Today's Enemy, or the barriers in Nowhere to Run from the Baltane missions allow you to hit as many as five targets with proper aim, allowing you to remain stationary as you train the skill without a need to chase enemy clusters around.
Another method is to gather weak enemies using Enthralling Performance followed by Lullaby
