Thunder Blade as it appears in Tales of Phantasia (iOS).
Thunder Blade (サンダーブレード / サンダーブレイド Sandaabureedo / Sandaabureido?) is a classic Lightning- or Wind-elemental spell that has appeared frequently in several games throughout the Tales series.
Arte Description and History
.png){kind=link}
Thunder Blade as it appears in Tales of Destiny (PSX).
In Tales of Phantasia, Thunder Blade involves hitting the entire screen with a large and instant electric blast. Since then, its animation has changed twice. In Tales of Arise, the arte takes the form of an orb of electricity, that quickly shoots a stream of lightning across the area in front of the caster.
In Tales of Eternia, the spell summons a long lightning sword from the bottom of the field behind the caster's position, which swings back to the right to toss enemies into the air. This same animation style was repeated in Tales of the World: Narikiri Dungeon 2, Tales of the World: Narikiri Dungeon 3, Tales of Legendia, and Tales of the World: Reve Unitia.
In Tales of Symphonia, the spell summons a large sword of lightning in the sky, which pierces into the ground to create an electric shock that affects a circular area around the impact point. Thunder Blade is available to Genis Sage if he is aligned with the "Technical" branch of artes. If he is associated with the "Strike" style, he learns Spark Wave instead. This does not apply for Kratos Aurion and Zelos Wilder, as both acquire Thunder Blade, regardless of their branch affinity. This title's animation for Thunder Blade would become the spell's staple animation, being reused in the Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology series, Tales of Innocence, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, Tales of Vesperia, Tales of VS., Tales of the Heroes: Twin Brave, Tales of Hearts R, and Tales of the Rays.
In the PlayStation 2 remake of Tales of Destiny, this becomes a mid-range attack where Philia Felice extends her sword's reach with electricity, then swings it upward. In Tales of VS., Philia uses this animation, whereas everyone else uses the generic animation.
In Tales of the Abyss, this spell is introduced as part of the Wind element due to the lack of a dedicated Lightning element in the game. For Jade Curtiss and most enemy characters, using Thunder Blade within a fully-charged Earth or Dark FOF Circle changes the spell into Gravity Well. Thunder Blade must be fully mastered to unlock Jade's second mystic arte, Indignation, during a second or later playthrough.
In Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, this arte appears as a Lightning-elemental arte available to Zelos throughout the game and Genis starting in Chapter 7. Monsters can also learn this through the tome "Volt's Melancholy".
Thunder Blade appears as an altered arte learned by Rita Mordio. Like other lightning-themed attacks in Tales of Vesperia, the spell is both Wind- and Fire-elemental. The spell can be learned if Rita casts Blade Roll with the "Hell Fire" and "Gale" skills equipped, until Thunder Blade itself is mastered and enabled as a separate arte. Similar to Tales of the Abyss, the PlayStation 3 and Definitive Edition versions of the game requires this spell to be used over 200 times in order to learn the mystic arte Indignation.
In Tales of Graces ƒ, Thunder Blade makes its debut as a strike arte. While the Fodra Queen is in her mobile, sword-using form, she can use Thunder Blade to attack with a line of lightning bolts.
In Tales of Xillia and Tales of Xillia 2, the blade spins around the user like a corkscrew before piercing the ground.
In the collaboration event with Star Ocean: Anamnesis, Dhaos performs a variation called Thunder Blade - I (サンダーブレード・異?, "Thunder Blade - Foreign"), referencing his nature as an alien on Aselia.
