Special Attacks

Special attacks are secondary attack types available for each melee weapon. The attacks available are different based on weapon type and rarity. For example a common rarity quarterstaff would never have any uncommon specials assigned to it.

Premade and crafted weapons have specific specials assigned based on their weapon type as well, but like stats they do not change.

Common Specials

Common special attacks are those found on common rarity Quarterstaffs. They do not deal any specific elemental damage and apply no status effects.

• Flurry
• Spinning Staff
• Uppercut
• Shockwave
• Ground Slam

Uncommon Specials

Rare and Uncommon rarity Quarterstaffs have a unique set of special secondary attacks. They consume energy when used, but unlike their common counterparts these attacks apply a status effect based on the elemental damage type.

• Blink Explosion
• Barrier
• Energy Whirl
• Rocket Spear
• Energy Aura
• Energy Pillar
• Energy Wave
