Arte Description and History
The user performs a simple uppercut, causing both the user and the target to become airborne. In Tales of Eternia, Rising Dragon Strike is needed to activate the Serpent Knuckle team skill. Law uniquely uses his leg as opposed to hand to perform this arte. In Tales of the Rays, Jude's version is a Wind-elemental mirrage arte, while Sync and Mirrist Regal's is a regular arte.
