Uses FP to temporarily turn body to steel, boosting poise, resistances and damage negation at the expense of mobility and vulnerability to lightning.
An art that requires fragments of hunted noble jars. Depraved perfumers are plainly in league with jar poachers.
Effect
Grants a Body Buff for 40 seconds that increase Physical Damage Negations by +40%, makes all one-handed light attacks and many one-handed heavy attacks and running light attacks deflect away the user when hit (except for Whips and Perfume Bottles, and the Cipher Pata and Coded Sword), increases resistance against all Status Effects by 45, and prevents stagger from all attacks that do not cause knockdown while reducing the stagger from knockdowns.
Also decreases Lightning Damage Negation by -60%, forces heavy load rolls, and reduces movement speed to a crawl.
The decreased movement speed and much harder to use roll can be counteracted with various skills such as Quickstep, Bloodhound's Step, and Blinkbolt (and its two unique variants).
Though it's still possible to dodge with Heavy Load rolls, their decreased distance and the decreased movement speed makes the user very vulnerable to ranged Lightning damage attacks such as Lightning Spear and Lightning Pot.
This item actually deflects all weapon attacks with an AttackRepel value below 90.
