Unleash Blade

Unleash Blade is a Technique for Ace. The effects and appearance differs depending on Ace's currently equipped weapon.

Effects

 * A-Saber: A spinning blade fires out of Ace, travelling a set distance before returning. It deals 0.7x Power Strength normally, and can be Surged at the cost of 4 Energy to deal double damage.
 * Tonbokiri: Fires out an energy spear which quickly travels forwards. When it hits a wall, it acts as a platform. It deals 2.0x Power Strength normally, and can be Surged at the cost of 4 Energy to deal double damage and increase the time it lasts as a platform.
 * Lucavi: Rapidly hits enemies in front with a flurry of small blade strikes. Seven swings total. First swing deals 2.0x Attack Strength, every swing after deals 1.0x Attack Strength. Cannot be Surged.
 * Lara: Flings a spinning hammer diagonally upwards, falling in an arc. It deals 2.5x Power Strength normally, and can be Surged at the cost of 4 Energy to deal double damage.
 * Grandmaster: Deals a powerful hook which sends enemies it kills flying, which can then damage other enemies for damage equal to the flung enemy's HP (20 damage if flung enemy's HP is less than 20). The hook deals 2.0x Attack Strength normally and cannot be Surged. Current weapon charge applies with a modifier of 200%.
