Special Ability
Berserk
When Elesis gets hit by an arrow or kunai, a small meter will be shown to the right of her. The gauge empties quickly in a short amount of time. When the gauge is filled to the top after being hit by enough arrows or kunais, the word BERSERK will be shown in the middle of the screen, and those around her will be sent upward and back down, suffering a small bit of damage in the process.
Only Elesis, Sieghart after equipping Berserker, and Dio after equippingWeapon Passive 3 have this ability, though only Elesis has the words occurring. Arme can gain a different version of Berserk through Mental Recovery that only increases her mana regeneration.
Arrow Defense
Arrow Defense only blocks standard-leveled arrows. If any enhanced arrow is approaching, it is impossible to defend/block it, and must be dodged.
All characters except for Lire and Arme have Arrow Defense. However, Lire can gain the ability to shoot down enemy arrows and Arme can gain the ability to reflect arrows. Some monsters are also capable of using Arrow Defense.
Magic Defense
Basically the same thing as Arrow Defense, but protects against Magical components instead. Many certain abilities, such as reflectors, defensive swings, or defensive shields, are known to block only several magical attacks, mostly Firebolt spells.
The ability to acquire Magic Defense is usually gained through the use of aSkill Tree. Only Elesis, Lire, Arme, Ryan, Ronan, and Sieghart can gain Magic Defense.
Elesis is also the only character that can actually block the Magician‘s Magic Circle, in the same manner as Arrow Defense.
