Arte Description and History[]

Shadow Shock as it appears in Tales of Zestiria.
When this arte is activated, the user reels backward, then dashes forward with a single, horizontal slash that hits enemies multiple times. Later appearances includes a vortex of slashes after the horizontal slash. In Tales of Rebirth, Mueishou can be transformed into the Aqua-elemental arte Muhyoushou if the Hyouma no Tamashii (氷魔の魂?) talisman is equipped and the assigned Force Gauge is completely full.
Jude Mathis from Tales of Xillia uses a version that involves him attacking with his fist, which is localized as "Mirage Blitz" and written with the character for "palm" (掌 shou?), as opposed to everyone else's "rush" (衝 shou?). During execution, he hops backward and spins counterclockwise, before darting forward and striking with his left fist. If he uses it in the air, he gains the dodging effect of the arte for aerial maneuvering, but it deals no damage. Law from Tales of Arise, performs it differently, darting directly toward the target and striking with his right palm.
In Tales of the Rays, Veigue's version alters into Muei Hakushou when standing or moving.
