Focus Spirit
Focus Spirit is a special ability that playable Warriors in Hyrule Warriors may use. It temporarily increases the strength, speed and defense of characters that use it.
Focus Spirit uses Magic Power, which may be filled by collecting Magic Jars from defeating enemies, breaking jars or cutting grass. Once the Focus Spirit gauge is filled, a character may enter Focus Spirit by pressing the R button. When Focus Spirit is activated, the character's stats will be boosted for a short time, and they will not be knocked back when hit by a strong attack. Activating Focus Spirit will also surround the character in a colored glow that matches the element of their weapon type. Once the gauge is drained of its Magic Power, the character performs an explosion of energy onto their surrounding enemies.
If a character performs a Special Attack while under the effects of Focus Spirit, a powerful attack is performed that can knock down larger enemies, and reveal their Weak Point gauge.
