The momentum from sprinting adds force to the throw, sending enemies a significant distance.12121313Combat Tips14141515Spinning Scissors Throw requires a running start, so it works best as an engagement opener or when chasing fleeing enemies. The throw creates strong positioning advantages by separating a single target from a group. At 60 Stamina, it is expensive, so save it for high-value targets.16161717See Also18181919For a full list of abilities, see the Skills page.

Damiane must already be sprinting for the X + Square input to trigger the scissor throw; pressing the same buttons from a standstill performs a regular grab instead. The running prerequisite makes this skill ideal as a pursuit tool against fleeing enemies or as a committed engagement when Damiane is crossing open space toward a backline caster.24242525The throw launches the target a long horizontal distance, which can be aimed toward other enemies for a knockdown hit or toward environmental hazards such as cliffs or spike pits. Line up the angle before committing because the 60 Stamina cost is one of the highest in her grappling tree.26262727Requirements28282929RequirementDetailCharacterDamianeSkill TreeStamina (Blue) - Grappling branchPrerequisites1 Abyss Artifact, or observe the skill in action (Watch and Learn)Stamina Cost60 StaminaControl InputX + Square while running3030Related Skills31313232Grappling - governs all of Damiane's grapple techniques.Screwdriver - kick-based grapple, complements Scissors Throw.Throw - standard throw, available earlier in the tree.Restrain - stationary grab-and-hold.Aerial Grapple - airborne variant for jumping enemies.33333434Related Articles35353636Damiane SkillsSkillsCombat SystemAbyss Artifacts
