Drive Twister/ ドライブツイスター
Changes the first Triangle Attack into a quick forward step, traveling about the same distance as a standard step. Upon contact with an enemy an upward swing will be done. If nothing is encountered, no stamina will be consumed, and can be chained into another quick forward step. Upon hitting the first Triangle Attack with the upward swing, the second Triangle Attack will be the second hit of the default Triangle Attack.

Secret Sword: Rising Flying Dragon/ 秘剣・昇り飛竜
Changes Triangle Attack into a short forward step. Can be used up to three times, on the fourth press of the button, an upward slash with a short charging time will occur. As this does not consume stamina at all, it's very useful in dodging and repositioning. However the attack will only occur after the 3rd step, making this not as useful when going all out to attack a stationary enemy. Works very well with Selfless State skill (damage increased by 20% when stamina is below 25).

Air Triangle Attack

• Genocide Gear
• Skanda
• Hiten Wheel

Genocide Gear/ ジェノサイドギア
Changes Air Triangle into a stationary spinning attack in the air. Can be done extra times in the air (2~4 spins from Rank II to IV). As this attacks makes the player completely stationary, one might get hit either during the attack or when the player lands. On the other hand, staying in the air for so long allows easy dodging of ground based attacks. Excellent for destroying tall parts.

Can be used to attack the same area, or to travel great distances. Hiten Wheel needs to be chained into the next spin quickly, so think quickly on which direction to spin.
