Episode III: Tech Attacks

MOMO's Episode III Tech Attacks quite honestly have nothing to do with her Episode I Tech Attacks. This is likely the result of 1) she uses an Ether Bow instead of a scepter now and 2) her Ep 1 Tech Attacks weren't very good to begin with. Luckily, MOMO proves to be more efficient with an Ether bow (in other words, her Tech Attacks are useful)! The only downside is that if you decide to try and learn her Tech Attacks (which are along the B-path of her skill tree), you don't learn as fast or at all her elemental spells (along the A-path of her skill tree), which is pretty fundamental to the game.

You don't need to input a sequence for Tech Attacks anymore. Simply select it from the menu (very hard to miss: it's under "Attack") and you select the attack from the list. Her attacks either diffuse to multiple enemies, help fill the enemy's break gauge, or are just pretty powerful. She does not learn any automatically. Here's a list of some of them:

Tech Attacks Chart
Name Target Restriction EP SP Descriptions
Double Shot I Single Long 10 200 Medium physical attack. (2 hits)
Double Shot II Single Long 12 300 Heavy physical attack. (2 hits)
Double Head Shot Two Short 6 50 Small physical attack. (Adjacent enemies, not usable if only one enemy)
Break Arrow I Single Long 8 35 Small break attack.
Break Arrow II Single Long 10 100 Medium break attack.
Angel Arrow All Long 10 50 Small physical attack. (Not usable if only one enemy)
Sword Fish Single Short 18 300 Heavy physical attack + heavy break attack.


As you can probably already tell, Sword Fish is the best one attack both the HP and Break gauges heavily. This attack is actually pretty similar to Ziggy's Swordfish (Ziggy and MOMO are getting close huh?). However, Break Arrows are very effective in the beginning portion. Another major difference is that these attacks do not need to be set to be used. If you think of the FFX battle system, this is very similar. Overall, whatever path you choose for MOMO (Ether or Tech), she'll be very useful.
