Children of Mana - Equipment - Swords

The Sword is gained before your first mission to the Mana Tower. The basic attack for the sword is to perform up to three consecutive slashes, the last one of which will knock enemies over. This can cause damage to enemies behind them and in turn knock them over, etc etc. The sword will also be greatly used to mow down small obstacles such as pots, grass and bushes, to allow you to advance in the level, reveal the Gleamdrop and open chests. Certain gems will cause this last strike to send out a shock wave to increase its range, and also allow for cutting down small obstacles at a distance.

A focused attack for the sword is called a parry, and by the nature of such will deflect missiles and reduce the damage of physical attacks. The basic parry will only last 5 hits before failing and requiring regeneration. Certain gems will increase the number of hits the parry can take, or the damage reduced on physical attacks, or both.

A focused attack during Fury will cause the character to launch forward with the sword glowing in front of them, causing quite considerable damage. Enemies that are stationary (like vortexes) will receive up to three hits. Certain gems can increase the level of this attack, which increases the distance the charge
lasts and the damage caused.
