Moveset#

Key Move Description Damage / Cooldown
Left mouse Flame Edge Lightning-fast katana string trailing flame. W = rising slash, S (air) = meteor cut. 4 hits: 3% each, final hit 7%
1 Flame Swallows A flame crescent splits into three homing fire swallows; the third stuns and sets the foe burning (2% over 1.5 s). In the air they dive on foes below. Hold to aim: they fly further and pierce. 5 s
2 Coiling Fire Dragon A fire dragon bursts from the blade, holds the foe in its burning coils, then carries them up. In the air the dragon coils around you and bites everything nearby. Hold for longer coils. 5 s
3 Sunset Ring Six flame pillars erupt in a ring around you (kill); burning foes ignite for +3%. In the air: drop a falling sun that erupts on the floor and leaves it burning for 2 s (spike). Hold to power it up. 7 s
