Illusion Shot is a technical skill found in The Legend of Dark Witch 2. It is the signature skill of Litty.
Effect
Illusion Shot differs when used by the player compared to when it is used in Litty's bossfight.
Litty
At the start of her bossfight, Litty will launch an orb forward that disappears. She will then launch another orb upwards that disappears, reappears above the player twice, then flies down to hit the player. These attacks are functionally similar to when Illusion Shot is used by the player.
Illusion Shot! is also the name of Litty's Revenge Magic, though it is a lot different compared to the skill of the same name she gives you. She will launch three orbs at different angles that will bounce across the room for a few seconds before disappearing. The orbs have a chance of being red or gray, and only the red orbs will damage the player.
Player
When the player fires the attack button, an orb will be fired in front of them that disappears. If there is an enemy onscreen, Illusion Shot will reappear in front of the enemy to damage them. If the player is too close to an enemy while using Illusion Shot, it will not reappear in front of them, however, you can still damage enemies in front of you with the orb before it disappears.
Upgrade
Like the other weapons in The Legend of Dark Witch 2, Illusion Shot can be upgraded to make it stronger. Upgrading Illusion Shot will allow it to pierce through enemies, dealing multiple hits of damage as it comes in contact with them.
Super Effectiveness
Mari is weak to Illusion Shot in The Legend of Dark Witch 2. It does more damage to her, as well as ignoring the effect of her revenge magic, Area Gravity.
Trivia
- Due to the random nature of the attack, Illusion Shot! is the only Revenge Magic in The Legend of Dark Witch 2 to have a chance of being unable to do any damage to the player.
