(Guillotine Cross) Weapon Blocking Lv.1

Counter Slash is a 3^rd job offensive skill available as Guillotine Cross.

Description

This skill is available for 2 seconds after avoiding an attack with Weapon Blocking. Damages all targets around the caster with an attack that's able to Critically hit and also knocks them 5 cells back. Damage scales with AGI, Base and Job Levels.

Mechanics

Counter Slash can only be used after a physical attack is blocked through Weapon Blocking, making it more effective against monsters than players. Despite the description, the 5x5 area of effect is centered on the target, not the user. This interaction can result in the skill failing to hit enemies standing on the other side of the user, or even directly on top of them. Although the attack is centered on the enemy that most recently triggered Weapon Blocking, Counter Slash cannot be activated against enemies outside of the range. The fact that this skill can CRIT means it can potentially bypass high FLEE, and benefits from CRIT damage boosting effects.
