When used, Pyra throws the Aegis Sword forward like a boomerang. The sword then spins in a vertical circular motion, hitting multiple times, before returning back to Pyra. Tapping the control stick increases the range of the attack. The sword does not have an hitbox while returning to Pyra. | When used, Pyra throws the Aegis Sword forward like a boomerang.

However she can still jump, shield, roll and dodge. If used offstage Pyra will not be able to use [[Prominence Revolt]] for the duration of the move, leaving her with jump and air dodge as recovery options. The sword acts as a [[projectile]] and thus can be [[reflect]]ed and [[pocket]]ed when thrown. Once the sword begins spinning in it is no longer considered a projectile. If unable to return to Pyra for some reason such as being pocketed, another Aegis Sword will appear in Pyra's hand to maintain her moveset; a pocketed Aegis Sword can be used for one use of Blazing End before disappearing. | ||
When catching the sword as it returns, Pyra is put in a 14 frames long regrab animation. This animation can be canceled by performing another animation such as shield, dodge, roll, [[jumpsquat]] or even [[footstool]]. The latter is very useful as it allows Blazing End to be used to set up jab [[lock]]s. If thrown too close to a wall, the sword will bounce back to Pyra without activating its spinning phase. This can be useful when close to the ledge, it allows Pyra to quickly regain her sword while still producing a hitbox. | When catching the sword as it returns, Pyra is put in a 14 frames long regrab animation.
