Castlevania: Circle of the Moon (class)[]
Instead of being an equipped weapon, Nathan Graves can perform a similar attack with Mars + Griffin combination. However, this attack requires standing still to charge its power and release later, such that it's impractical to use against most enemies. One hidden effect is that when this combination is active, Slide and Tackle can immediately deal damage equal to a full charge attack.
