Sacred Arrow (セイクリッドアロー, Sacred Arrow) is Mythra's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Overview

Mythra summons Rex, who says "Mythra, now!" and performs an underhand slash to transition into a cutscene. In the cutscene, Mythra says "Concentrate, Rex.", and she and Rex hold the Aegis Sword together and point it into the sky to summon a beam of light, shouting the move's name. Transitioning into normal gameplay, they point the Aegis Sword forward to rain smaller beams of light from the sky down onto the opponents, whilst Rex says "And, strike!", before they fires a light beam from the sword to finish the move.

Instructional quotes

  Move List   Rain down arrows from above at the opponent Rex strikes. This Final Smash has less launch power than Pyra's, but it deals high continuous damage in a wide area.

Origin

In Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Sacred Arrow is Mythra's Level 4 Blade Special. The move's animation in Smash is a recreation of its animation in battles in Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

Trivia

  • Burning Sword and Sacred Arrow are the first Final Smashes that start off with a cinematic but the move ends in-game. The opposite holds true for Infernal Climax.
    • They are also the first Final Smashes from a Fighters Pass character to contain non-cinematic elements in it, and the second DLC character overall with this distinction, following Petey Piranha.
