Blade of the Mystic is a Royal Arm Weapon.
How to Obtain
The 4th Royal arm you get during the main quest. It's found in the Disc of Cauthess in Chapter 4.
Movesets
- Basic combo: Lots of slashes and stabs. Medium speed and AoE. When you stop attacking, Noctis will hold the sword in front of him and gain +100 strength for 10 seconds. Buff can be activated out of combat.
- Aerial attack: A single slash.
- Phase-counter: Uppercut slash.
- Warp strike: Shoot 3 magic beams and then warp strike.
- How to use: Decent AoE combo, but generally speaking AoE combos in this game are bad, especially with Royal Arms. The buff and warp-strikes are decent though.
Additional Information
- Unique warp strike: Noctis shoots Armiger projections of the blade before warping in to deliver a devastating strike. Each projection actually does the same damage as the blade would, also adjusted for warp strike distance bonus, so you can get a bit of a higher damage warp strike than your average weapon at that attack rating.
- Trait: Super Armor. [FALSE] Retested on different enemies, only armors through attacks as well as an average Greatsword, meaning you can't tank through anything but relatively weak hits. Don't use this expecting to not flinch when attacked.
- Trait: Strength Buff. When pausing after an attack, successfully finishing Noctis' "knight stance" animation will grant him a +100 Strength buff. You know what part of the animation you're looking for when his hands glow just before it is "sheathed."
