Editing Aether Strikers (section)

==Techniques==
Perhaps the most important component of the Aether strikers system are techniques. 

These are special moves that vary depending on how many Mantras you have charged up.
===Tempest Form===
The '''Tempest Form''' is the simplest technique, requiring only one Mantra to use. 

Activate it to focus your energy and increase your attack speed. This is a relatively long boost.<br><center>[[File:Aether_Strikers_Tempest_Form.gif]]

<br>
===Karma Breaker===
The '''Karma Breaker''' requires two Mantras and unleashes a forward strike. 

This strike damages the first target it hits and deals damage over time for an extended period.

===Adamant Bolt===
The '''Adamant Bolt''' releases a focused, cannon-like blast of energy, dealing damage to the first enemy it hits. 

It also deals bonus damage if either Tempest Form or Karma Breaker is active, and even more damage if they’re both active. 

You’ll need to light up all three Mantras in order to use this one.<br><center>[[File:Aether Strikers Adamant Bolt.gif]]</center>

Adamant Bolt can be swapped for Titan’s Crash, a devastating close-range Attack that does more damage when both Tempest Form and Karma Breaker are active.

===Mantra===
Once you’ve charged up a Mantra, you’ll see a timer and two special skills light up on your UI.

The first one is Surge: a skill you can use after gaining any Mantra or using any technique. Tap your special button to execute a dash attack that punches through enemies and – this part is important – refreshes your timer.

'''Timing is Everything'''

Before we go further into techniques and combo chains, let’s explain the Mantra timer. This glowing meter lets you see how much time you have left before your current Mantra(s) expire. You can refresh it by either (a) activating Surge or (b) landing another successful combo before it times out. If it expires, you’ll lose all of your current Mantra charges and have to start over with another combo.
