The Chain Barrier, also known as the Sustained Sweep, is a series of very rapidly performed whip swing attacks that targets enemies in front of and behind the player in Lords of Shadow games. The whip is swung while the [Area Attack] button is held down, and its target direction can be changed by moving. It can be upgraded to perform a guard breaking combo finisher by performing another Area Attack as soon as releasing the button.
