How to Use Taker's Flames

Long-Ranged Projectile

Activate from a distance and target a group of foes. This skill disrupts the ground it passes through giving it a vertical and a slightly wide linear range from other skills like the Vaccum Slice.

Pushes Away Enemies

Enemies near or are in its linear trajectory are pushed away almost as if carving a path for the user. Good for taking down a group of enemies during PvE but is easily dodged during PvP for its slow wind-up.

Provides Good Poise

This skill is not easily canceled once the sword is raised aloft as it charge, but with quick continuous attacks from foes it can be still canceled. That is why activating it from a safe distance is crucial.

Leech Enemy HP

This skill will heal the user as long as it hits an enemy even without killing it. User will also get healed when it kills a foe through the effect of the Blasphemous Blade. Either way you can get healed by using this skill and with the sword it's unique with. So aim it to a direction where there's a bunch of enemies to maximize its healing effect.

Unique to the Blasphemous Blade

The Taker's Flames can only be used with the Blasphemous Blade an armament obtained by defeating Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy in the Volcano Manor.
