Basic Attacks[]

Oracle uses Greatswords and Foci.

Greatswords[]

Oracle has 3 modes of physical attacks: Thrust Form, Guard Form, and Slash Form.

Thrust Form is done by pressing Y, which sends the sword and mirages forward a short distance. This has NORMAL DP generation.
Guard Form is done by ↓ + Y, and has Oracle spin the sword and mirages around her, protecting herself from attacks while slicing enemies. This has HIGH DP generation.
Slash Form is done by ↑ + Y, Oracle sends the sword and mirages far forward. The sword(s) will spin and slice enemies. This has LOW DP generation.

Alternatively, pressing X instead of Y allows Oracle's swords to attack automatically. This consumes DP.

Continuous Thrust Form sends the swords and mirages to attack on their own in a short distance. This has LOW DP consumption.
Reinforced Guard Form has the swords and mirages spin around Oracle repeatedly. This has NORMAL DP consumption.
Cleaving Slash Form sends the swords and mirages to repeatedly spin a far distance from her. This has HIGH DP consumption.

During any automatic attack, Oracle can shoot null magical bullets by pressing Y.

Foci and Spells[]

Oracle focuses more on supportive magic, lacking the multiple elemental arsenal Witch has, but in exchange has more utility than Witch. Her Spells are the following.

Note: All spells follow the Nintendo Switch controller:

Bottom face button is B
Left face button is Y

Dragon Skills[]

Oracle has 2 Dragon Skills: Dragon Boost and Dragon Advent. Dragon Boost is applied by pressing A. Afterwards, all great swords inflict elemental (element is based on the contract) Holy Damage. Elemental Spells will also be given a Power Up effect automatically upon input. Dragon Advent is triggered by pressing and holding ↓ + A, which causes Oracle to conjure a powerful elemental holy attack based on her contract. In the case of the Poison Contract, it is a healing spell instead. Both Dragon Boost and Dragon Advent consume DP while active, the former having a standard DP drain, and the latter having a fast DP drain.
