------------------------------------------------------------------------------
System:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[THE SWORD GAUGE]
The Sword Gauge below the Life Energy Gauge shows attack
strength. When it is low, the amount of damage you give an
opponent will be slight even when you hit them, and when
you hit opponents with the Sword Gauge at MAX, you can
exact extensive damage with a single blow. The Sword Gauge
falls when attacks hit or miss, and subsequently rises as time
passes.
[THE RAGE GAUGE]
The Rage Gauge rises as you take damage from attacks. When
it hits MAX, you can use Knocking-on-the-Sword moves and
try to turn things around with a single blow.
[RAGE EXPLOSIONS]
Activating the "Rage Explosion" enables the use of invincible
attacks that knock back enemy attacks even as you take damage
and the Sword Gauge shoots up to MAX. This lets you use
Knocking-on-the-Sword Methods of Mayhem to get out of
tight spots.
[CONCENTRATION ONE]
"Concentration One" can be activated when the Life Energy
Gauge flashes blue and lets you anticipate your opponent's
moves to aim for a one-blow turnaround. The Rage Gauge
disappears when you use either the "Rage Explosion" or "
Concentration One." The Rage Explosion can get out of a
pinch or you can turn the tide of battle in your favor using
Concentration One-either option greatly changes how you
do battle.
