Unleash

An Unleash is a special attack a weapon can perform. When an unleash occurs, a new attack animation sequence is triggered, instead of the usual jump/slash enemy. Each unleash has a different animation sequence, and no two weapons have the same unleash. Only artifact weapons have unleashes, but not every artifact has an unleash.

An unleash has a certain percentage attached for the unleash to occur. Some occur more frequently than others do, but the base percentage for an unleash to occur is 35%.

Some unleashes have a special effect, such as instant kill, causing enemy status abnormalities, replenishing HP or PP, or doing more damage than normal.

Every unleash is connected to an element. This means that the damage done by an unleash is converted to elemental physical damage, rather than battle damage.
