Overview

The Étoile Class handles three special weapons: Double Saber Double Sabers, Soaring BladesSoaring Blades, and WandWands; as well as GunbladeGunblades, common to all classes.
All are existing weapons, but when equipped as an Étoile, their movesets have a completely different behavior in terms of Normal Attacks, Weapon Actions, Dodge Actions, and Photon Arts.
Étoiles cannot use any of the existing PAs for these weapon types (even for weapons that have a built-in PA cannot be used). Therefore, the behavior and PAs relating to these weapon types are discussed in separate pages.
Étoile PAs can only be used by Étoile as a Main Class. They cannot be used even when equipped with those types as Étoile Subclass.

  • Common to Double Saber, Soaring Blades, and Wand is that all of their Weapon Actions can counter in a way from guarding.
    • Unlike other Scion Classes, each weapon has its own Focus and Weapon Action (not shared by the three weapon types). However, what is common to them is their Weapon Action elements that can lead into enhanced attacks.
  • All three weapon types have a very high flight performance and slow occurence of spontaneous fall for a variety of actions.

Features of Étoile Double Saber

  • Normal Attack
    • 3-stage attack. Hits twice -> twice -> thrice for a total of 7 hits.
    • Has a long Perfect Attack window. In addition, it has excellent flight performance, and altitude does not drop at all during the Perfect Attack window.
  • Enhanced Attack
    • Activated by pressing and holding a Normal Attack with 1 or more Focus accumulated.
      Consumes 1 Gauge of Focus to release a strong attack that can stun in front of the player to retreat. Has a Guard Point at the time of activation, and also recovers PP.
      Has the range of about 1 Sidestep of Etoile Double Saber.
    • It is treated similarly to a Normal Attack and can be performed up to three stages in total. The timing of the transition from the Normal Attack differs with each level.
    • Can be activated even if no Focus has been accumulated, but the potency is halved, the amount of PP recovery is reduced, and the stun effect is omitted.
  • Étoile Double Saber Focus (Skill Acquisition Required)
ETDBFocus.png



    • Accumulates when attacking the enemy. Up to 3 gauges can be stored.
    • When being attacked while the Focus Gauge is stocked, it will automatically consume Focus and reduce the damage.
    • Also consumed when activating the above-mentioned Enhanced Attack.
  • Weapon Action Deflect, Deflect Combo
Icon Deflect Deflect Combo Deflect Combo (Quick Take) Deflect Combo (Perfect Guard)
UIWAEtDoubleSaber.png Potency 0 530 + 440 + 440 900 + 440 + 440 2000 + 440 + 440
PP Recovery Amount 0 2 + 2 + 2 2 + 2 + 2 10 + 2 + 2

During Deflect and Deflect Combo, the number of combo stages of Normal Attacks is maintained and Natural PP Recovery is halted.
Deflect is also eligible for Perfect Guard PP Aile.
PP Recovery effects are applied to the Deflect Combo attack.

    • Deflect
      • Activated when a Weapon Action is performed. Moves in any direction while guarding.
        Performing another Weapon Action during this will derive the move into a Deflect Combo.
      • Performing a Weapon Action during a Sidestep or Slide will increase the distance traveled from the action.
      • Perfect Guard is possible at the beginning of the Weapon Action. If it succeeds, a sound effect is made and a deflect ring (tentative name) will be made around the player.
        When the deflection occurs, the behavior changes immediately after.
      • Deflect ring can be made even at the beginning of the Guard Points provided in the PAs, but the grace period is very short.
    • Deflection Combo
      • Can also be Perfect Guarded at the beginning. Same properties as when it succeeds, a deflect ring is made around the player.
        Has longer duration.
      • After stepping forward a little, launch 3 consectuive attacks. Stuns on the 2nd and 3rd hits. The potency of the first hit is higher than the other hits.
      • If Perfect Guard is successful in the Deflect or Deflect Combo, the forward movement changes to high speed movement. The potency of the first hit is increased by about 3.8x.
      • You can repeat a Deflect Combo by performing a Wapon Action during a Deflect Combo.
      • If you have Double Saber Quick Take learned, the flash effect described below will occur after the 3rd hit, and you can extend the distance by performing a Weapon Action.
        The potency of the first hit when the guard is not made increases by about 1.7x.
    • Behavioral Changes Immediately After the Deflection Ring Occurs
      • The number of hits when you perform a Normal Attack with a Normal Attack/Quick Take is increased by 1. The added attacks are slightly more powerful.
      • Increased potency of the first hit of the Deflect Combo.
      • Become invulnerable while the deflect ring is displayed.
  • Sidestep
    • Sidestep in any direction to avoid enemy attacks.
    • Performing a Normal Attack while Sidestep will derive it into a Sidestep Strike.
  • Double Saber Sidestep Guard (Skill Acquisition Required)
    • When succesfully evading an enemy's attack via a forward Sidestep will launch a counter that accumulates 1.5 Focus Gauges with a potency of 2000%.
    • The range of the counter attack is about 2.5 Sidesteps.
    • A forward Sidestep is regarded as moving forward while performing a Sidestep or performing a Sidestep while stationary.
  • Double Saber Sidestep Slide (Skill Acquisition Required)
    • Double tapping Sidestep twice will make the player move into a slide.
      While in this state, by continuing to input movement, it is possible to continue sliding.
      Movement speed increases during lock-on.
      Any attacks made during the slide will be eligible for Perfect Attack.
    • An enhanced attack or a Normal Attack during a Sidestep Slide will result in an enhanced attack.
      • Both do not change from the second hit, and the Normal Attack happens in the first.
      • Even if the Normal Attack portion has the same Sidestep attack and animation, it happens a little late, Focus accumulation increases greatly, potency increases to 1600%, and its PP recovers by (20 + Focus Offset).
      • Even if PAs are used during the Sidestep Slide, no change happens.
    • Double Saber Skip Arts can be applied during the Slide.
  • Double Saber Skip Arts (Skill Acquisition Required)
    • Performing PAs without movement input will skip the first half of the PA.
  • Double Saber Quick Take (Skill Acquisition Required)
    • At the end of a PA or Deflect Combo, a golden flash effect coupled with a distinctive sound effect is made.
      Performing a Normal Attack (even Enhanced Attack) or a Weapon Action during this will make the player instant move to the lock-on part and perform a single attack for a Normal Attack or a Deflect Combo for a Weapon Action.
      Only a Quick Take with a Normal Attack advances the combo stage of the Normal Attack.

Enhanced Attack, Deflect Combo, Quick take, and Sidestep Guard have no potential or SGA effect associated with Normal Attacks.
