Upper Tornado is a skill found in The Legend of Dark Witch. It is the signature skill of Stoj.
Effect
The skill differs when used by the boss fights with Stoj compared to when the player uses it.
Stoj Bossfight (DW1)
Stoj's first attack will have her summon three tornadoes in the player's location that are near visually identical to when Upper Tornado is used by the player, apart from the fact that they reach as high as the ceiling. They will stay in the location the player was previously in for a short time before disappearing.
Stoj Bossfight (DW2)
Upper Tornado appears as Stoj's Revenge Magic, now called Hyper Upper Tornado!! The attack functions near identically to the attack used by Stoj in the first game, however, these tornadoes are much wider, and the amount of tornadoes present changes depending on difficulty.
Player
About a second after the player presses the attack button, a tornado will spawn in the location where the player used it. It will linger for a few seconds, damaging any enemies coming near it before disappearing. Rather than reaching the ceiling, however, the tornado is slightly taller than the player.
Super Effeciveness
Al is weak Upper Tornado in The Legend of Dark Witch. In addition to dealing more damage to Al, Upper Tornado will block off the projectiles launched by her Divide Ice attacks.
Upgrade
Like the other weapons in The Legend of Dark Witch, you are able to upgrade Upper Tornado. Upper Tornado's upgrade allows it to deal more damage over time.
Trivia
- Franzer has a similar attack to Upper Tornado in the second phase of her bossfight. She will launch two tornadoes slightly taller than the player that move towards the opponent before disappearing after a few seconds.
- On Expert difficulty in The Legend of Dark Witch 2, Hyper Upper Tornado slightly differs when used by Zizou versus Stoj, as rather than summoning two tornadoes, Zizou will summon three towards Sola's location.
