Overview
Ink Cut is a Phantom Edge in Phantom Blade Zero designed for combo-oriented play. Unlike Phantom Edges that function as standalone burst tools, Ink Cut is built to chain seamlessly into and out of primary weapon combos, extending attack strings without interrupting their flow.
Moveset
Item | Description |
|---|---|
Chain slash | a quick strike that links directly from the end of a primary weapon combo |
Ink flourish | a multi-hit follow-up that keeps combo momentum going |
Return cut | an attack that transitions smoothly back to the primary weapon |
Combo finisher | a heavy final strike available only at the end of an extended chain |
Combo chaining
Ink Cut's defining feature is its seamless integration with primary blade combos. Where most Phantom Edges require a distinct activation that resets combo flow, Ink Cut slots into existing combo strings as if it were a natural extension of the primary weapon's moveset. The result is dramatically longer combo chains that deal sustained damage without natural breakpoints.
This makes Ink Cut the ideal Phantom Edge for players who prioritize combo length and style. It pairs especially well with high-hit-count primary blades like the Sanguine Twin or White Serpent & Crimson Viper.
