Piercing Gleam is an ability for Jack that requires 5 AP and is available after learning Slipstream. It lowers the enemy's Defense. When performing it, Jack lunges forward hitting his target, and his next slash will inflict Defense Break. The chance to inflict Defense Break is high, slightly higher than Cater's Weakening Bullet, despite the sluggishness. It is hard to use because of its startup frames, which leaves Jack vulnerable to attacks before his Defense Breaking slash.
