D&D Dark Alliance - Empowered Strike.png
In the Optional Tutorial, Trials of Tempus, you learn how to do an Empowered Strike. After landing a successful attack, press either the Square Button (Preset 1) or the R1 Button (Preset 2) to initiate an Empowered Strike.

Using Empowered Strikes in Combat

Dark Alliance - Empowered Strike.jpg
When your Ultimate bar is still charging while you are in a tight spot, this is when you can utlilize Empowered Strikes. Empowered Strikes deal more damage to your enemies for the price of 25% of your Ultimate bar. This is also a good way to restore Stamina after releasing a flurry of Light and Fierce Attacks.

You can only use Empowered Strikes if you have at least 25% of your Ultimate bar filled.
