All Eikonic Feats and How to Use

Use to Block Incoming Attacks

Titanic Block is used to block incoming attacks and negate their damage. This Eikonic Feat has no cooldown and can be used consecutively or keep active for as long as you want.

However, take note that not all attacks are blockable, and Titanic Block has a limit on how much it can protect you.

How to Do Titanic Counters

Press Square After a Precision Block

Activating Titanic Block right before an attack hits triggers a Precision Block. This triggers a unique slow-mo animation that can also give additional points in Arcade Mode.

After doing a Precision Block, quickly press the attack button to perform a Titanic Counter and deal heavy damage to your attacker. This can be done up to three times after each Precision Block.
