Delta Attack in Final Fantasy V.
XenomicAdded by Xenomic

Delta Attack (デルタアタック, Deruta Atakku?), also known as Delta Hit and Triangle Attack (トライアングルアタック, Toraianguru Atakku?), is a powerful recurring attack which requires the presence of all three users. It is commonly cast by the Magus Sisters and Movers.

AppearancesEdit

Final Fantasy IVEdit

The Magus Sisters are able to use Delta Attack, wherein Sandy casts Reflect on Cindy; Cindy attacks a character, and Mindy then casts an offensive spell on Cindy, which will bounce off and hit the player party. Incidentally, their version of the Delta Attack is not really a programmed attack skill at all, but rather a strategy. However, this can be avoided by Silencing Sandy.

Final Fantasy VEdit

Phobos, Nereid, and Triton, three of Exdeath's lackeys, will use Delta Attack when one of them is defeated and then successfully revives the defeated enemy before the player has a chance of killing one of the others. It inflicts low to mediocre non-elemental damage to one character, but has a possibility of Petrifying that character. Omega also uses Delta Attack, which does more damage, but can be reflected. The Mover enemy located in the final dungeon can also use Delta Attack. If the player Catches it, Delta Attack will be used upon the enemy's release. Finally, Neo Exdeath uses Delta Attack during the game's final battle, and not only can it be reflected but upon doing so it will instantly destroy one of Neo Exdeath's four sections, regardless of where it hits; this can only be done once per battle, however. Enuo, Omega Mk.II, and Neo Shinryu all can use this attack in the Advance remake.

Final Fantasy VIEdit

The Dream Stooges, Laragorn, Curlax, and Moebius, are able to use Delta Attack (previously known as Delta Hit). It has a possibility of Petrifying the character it hits. Omega Weapon and Inferno can also use the attack.

Final Fantasy VIIEdit

Called Triangle Attack, used by the Movers, it deals moderate non-elemental damage to one party member.

Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-Edit

Movers use Delta Attack. It deals critical damage to Zack.

Final Fantasy IXEdit

Movers in Terra will cast Delta Attack when three are alive at the same time. It only uses Delta Attack as a counterattack when all three Movers are hovering in the air, and inflicts Instant Death to the character that attacked them.

Final Fantasy XEdit

Delta Attack is the Magus Sisters' Overdrive and is arguably the strongest Aeon Overdrive in the game, as well as having the longest animation sequence. It is a non-elemental attack, which breaks the damage limit by default; however, the attack is hindered by the enemy's defense, so inflicting Armor Break beforehand is useful. In the International version, it deals 6 attacks rather than just 1.

When the Magus Sisters and the Dark Magus Sisters are fought, they can use their Delta Attack overdrive on the player.

Final Fantasy X-2Edit

Delta Attack is the Overdrive that the Magus Sisters use, when they are fought in the Farplane.

Final Fantasy XIIIEdit

Delta Attack is the name of a Paradigm. One party member takes on the role of Sentinel, another on the role of Commando, the third being a Ravager.

Dissidia Final FantasyEdit

"Death approaches!"
—Exdeath

Delta Attack is one of Exdeath's HP attacks. It creates a field of energy in front of Exdeath, blocking attacks as he thrusts his sword through the field to send a burst of energy straight forward. It costs 40 CP to equip and 180 AP to master.

Delta Attack is the Magus Sisters' summon ability when they are called into battle. It automatically decreases an opponent's Bravery by 50%, and halves their base Bravery for a period of time.

Dissidia 012 Final FantasyEdit

Delta Attack returns as one of Exdeath's HP attacks, now costing 30 CP to equip and 130 AP to master. Magus Sisters also return as a summon and Delta Attack returns as their ability when summoned, with the same affect as in the original Dissidia.

Non-Final Fantasy AppearancesEdit

Chrono TriggerEdit

Delta Attack is used by the boss Guardian along with his two Bits. The Mystic generals Ozzie, Slash, and Flea also use this in their optional battle.

Chrono CrossEdit

Delta Attack is used only by Serge, Leena, and Razzly.

TriviaEdit

  • Although produced not by SE, but by Game Arts, Delta Attack also appears in Grandia II, where it will be carried out by enemies called Eye Bats in a boss battle, but only if all three of them are alive.
