<includeonly>=</includeonly>==Royal Arms Tips, Tricks and Mechanics==<includeonly>=</includeonly>
*Royal Arms drain your health per enemy hit. How much, is dependent on the Royal Arm. The [[HP]] drain is percentage-based, meaning raising your health wont help.
*When you defend with a Royal Arm, ethereal blades will materialize around [[Noctis]] and will block bullets for free.
*You cannot airstep with any Royal Arms
*You cannot perform link strikes with Royal Arms (except with Iris and maybe other guest characters)
*Royal arms ignore all resistances and vulnerabilities. They don't ignore immunities though.
*Royal Arms have unique warp strikes, these typically consume a lot of health.
*Royal Arms don't have "Finishers". Instead, releasing and re-pushing O will skip to the second or third last attack in their basic combo (only works with some Royal Arms).
*Most Royal Arms don't have full [[movesets]]. If I don't cover some directional inputs for some Royal Arms, that mean those attacks don't exist, or at least I haven't discovered them.
*Your [[HP]] is drained based on each enemy struck, not each attack performed.
*HP drain can actually put you in danger state. Don't try to keep attacking and being confident in being a one-hit wonder. This is especially true if you use [[Overwhelm]] at low HP; you might be invincible to enemy attacks, but you can still be downed.
