Rush Assault



Rush Assault (Hard Rush, ハードラッシュ, Hādo Rasshu) is one of the first three Limit Breaks in Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-, already held by the player. It activates when Angeal's face portrait appears in all three reels during Modulating Phase. Based on Angeal's preferred hand-to-hand fighting style, the ability deals up to 15 physical hits to one, two, or three enemies, ignoring Vitality. The last hit is always a forward dive at a single enemy, launching a series of small explosions in its wake. Keeping this attack pattern in mind, it could be said that this attack is a melee version of Cloud's Final Limit Break, Omnislash, thus giving greater explanation to why Zack claims that he taught Omnislash to Cloud (as stated in certain novellas). The player can increase their chances of activating this Limit Break by equipping Rush Assault Independent Materia, available at the shop Research Dept. QMC+.
