Executing a complete combo has Noctis will finish using the same attack pattern he uses when finishing a combo with the Sword of the Father. Noctis's moves become warps, but as this is limited to the locations of his weapons, he cannot warp while sending his weapons to attack Leviathan, and instead moves normally.
