...wriggs, your feeble attempt to prevent the Monado from doing something is cute.
So your saying that Elios is more powerful than the combined energy of entire Universes?
Ok Think of it this way:
Monado > Boundary Manipulation (So it's more powerful than Yukari)
BUT
Monado has more limits than Boundary Manipulation.
His abilities won't be sealed by Purge, it would only be that barrier for a minute.
THAT is what it's truly designed for.
Besides, there's another Monado Art that removes buffs.
But that one, you don't want me to use.
If you make it the only option for Shulk to remove Elios's Barrier, then it's on you.
The Monado has the following weaknesses:
- If Shulk is stunned, then he can't use it.
- If Shulk can't hit his opponent or use Battle Soul (Meaning he's under Arts Seal himself) He can't recharge it (or use it if he's under Arts Seal)
- If there is an Apocrypha Generator Active, then he has a harder time of using it.4
This guy is a complete idiot when it comes to Xenoblade, but he showcases how you can screw up with the Monado
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxuWpjdbk5oThe time when he's thinking he's doing something wrong and can't hit the Telethia is when the Telethia has Soul Read and the only way to recharge the Monado was through Battle Soul. He used it once, but he didn't use it the second time which would have recharged the Talent Gauge.
