Affected By Action Speed

Enemies will be pushed back by the skill as it travels, potentially increasing the amount of hits they take. On average, enemies will be hit around 7 times.
- The Gigantic trait enlarges the skill significantly enough so that it stays in contact with most enemies long enough to deal an additional hit as it passes by, increasing the average hit count to 8. Because of this, it will usually out-perform the Critical trait, unless an enemy has very high defense, or they can take maximum hits.
- Player characters carried by the skill are pushed back severely, dealing well over 12 hits on flat surfaces. It does make it easier to Mana Break however, and feeds a lot of MP to your opponent.
- Only exceptionally wide targets, such as Debrian Nasod Carrier during its Energy Buster attack or Chaos Leviathan/Leviathan during their Tackle Assault/Charge attacks, can take full damage from the skill.
Certain targets hit in mid-air (aside from flying enemies) will be lifted by the skill.
- The lift will push mid-air players above the skill's hitbox, thus drastically reducing the damage dealt.
The projectile may rarely fly off the path on particularly sharp corners, especially when fired from the ground. Using it in mid-air typically gets around the issue.

End time (also called end times, end of time, end of days, last days, final days, or eschaton) is a time period described in the eschatologies of the dominant world religions, both Abrahamic and non-Abrahamic.
