Holy Lance (ToE)

Holy Lance as it appears in Tales of Eternia.

Holy Lance (ホーリーランス / ホーリィランス Hooriiransu?) is a powerful Light-elemental spell in the Tales series.

Arte Description and History[]

Holy Lance (ToS)

Holy Lance as it appears in Tales of Symphonia.

Holy Lance is a spell that causes many sharp spears of light to form in a circular pattern in the air while a magical glyph is formed around the enemy. The spears point down at an angle toward the target, rapidly striking the earth in sequence to pierce the enemy. This is followed by a small blast of light as the spears detonate.

The first appearance of this spell is in the original Tales of Destiny, where it is available exclusively to Swordian Clemente. All of the Swordian masters are capable of using the spell while Clemente is equipped. The PlayStation 2 remake of the game applies this spell exclusively to Philia Felice, who now has sole possession of Clemente. In this remake, the spell is revised to allow an initial spike of light to shoot from beneath the enemy, launching it into the air and keeping it trapped in place while it is assaulted by the other spears.

In Tales of Eternia, Holy Lance is available to either Keele Zeibel or Meredy, based on who has Rem in their Craymel Cage. The other character must have Maxwell in their Craymel Cage, and the two Craymels must be fringed together.

In Tales of Symphonia, Holy Lance is a move that can be learned by Raine Sage, providing Photon has been mastered and Raine is aligned with the Strike type of arte progression. Its Technical counterpart is Ray. In addition, Holy Lance also had a Dark-elemental equivalent named Bloody Lance, which is only usable by enemies. Holy Lance is also one possible key to unlocking Raine's mystic arte, Sacred Shine, in the PlayStation 2 port and later releases of the game. This spell alongside Ray did not return in Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World as they were replaced by Divine Saber.

Tales of the Abyss features Holy Lance as a spell learned by Tear Grants. The spell provides a fully charged Light-elemental FOF Circle, which can be used to activate Fire- or Wind-based FOF Changes. In addition, Holy Lance can change into Cluster Raid when activated within a complete Earth- or Dark-elemental FOF Circle.

Holy Lance returns in Tales of Innocence. It is learned by Ange Serena after she has reached an appropriate level of mastery for Ray, building on her Light-elemental focus. It is also learned by Hermana Larmo without any requirements, continuing Hermana's ability to use high-level offensive magic of all elements.

Tales of Vesperia also features the spell, this time usable by Estelle. Holy Lance is the key to unlocking Estelle's altered arte Holy Rain, which is obtained by using Holy Lance with the Deluge skill equipped, until it is mastered. Holy Lance can also be used by Flynn Scifo, available only during his duel with Yuri Lowell as an enemy attack in the Xbox 360 version of the game. The PlayStation 3 and Definitive Edition ports enables Holy Lance to be learned normally while Flynn is with the party.
