Skystep allows Damiane to deploy an Abyss-powered platform beneath her feet while airborne. This platform acts as a temporary foothold, enabling her to reach higher ledges, cross wider gaps, or reposition during aerial combat. The platform is powered by Scholastone technology and draws on Damiane's Spirit reserves.
In combat, Skystep can be used to maintain an aerial advantage over grounded enemies. By deploying a platform mid-jump, Damiane can extend her time in the air and follow up with aerial attacks or ranged abilities before landing. This is particularly useful against large enemies whose attacks sweep along the ground.
Use Skystep to access shortcuts and elevated areas that Kliff and Oongka cannot easily reach without climbing.
Combine Skystep with Shield Toss for aerial harassment, throwing shields from elevated positions before dropping back down.
Spirit regenerates while in Focus mode, so enter Focus briefly between Skystep uses to keep your Spirit topped up.
Skystep is considered a core traversal upgrade for Damiane and is practically a requirement for reaching certain exploration areas.
Spirit regenerates while in Focus mode, so pair this skill with Focus for sustained use.
