Skills

  1. Skill 1
    Aoi Over Sekigahara

    A heavy smite on one target that lowers its defence for three seconds, and a short Mighty Shield over his own troop.

  2. Skill 2
    Mikawa Bushi

    Infantry gain march speed and defence, and basic attacks and counterattacks may briefly raise infantry attack.

  3. Skill 3
    Nikkō Tōshō

    As garrison commander the garrison deals more damage, and its smite hits stack infantry health and may cleanse a debuff.

  4. Skill 4
    Nagashino Gambit

    As garrison commander, each buff the garrison receives may raise a Mighty Shield, at most once every seven seconds.

  5. Awakened
    Siege of Osaka

    Basic attacks and counterattacks may add a smite on up to three troops in a fan, twice as likely while shielded.
