GF's Attack: Diamond Dust

Shiva's attack is elemental Ice based. The attack is very powerful against fire elemental creatures.

Useful Abilities: Shiva's Vitality+ and Spirit+ abilities are useful for improving a character's stats at the beginning of the game. Therse abilities enable one of your characters to have a strong defense against physical and magic attacks without having a lot of powerful magic for Junctioning to Vitality and Spirit. The Doom ability is also useful until you gain the ability to draw or refine Death spells later in the game. This ability enables you to cast Slow Death on a single enemy, which is handy when facing strong monsters.
