Back Slash is one of Shulk's physical Arts in ''Xenoblade Chronicles'', and is one of the two Arts (excluding his Talent Art) in his arsenal when he is introduced, being his main physical art. It does the most damage out of all the physical arts in his complete moveset, and as a bonus effect, it deals double damage when hitting the enemy from behind. Its low cooldown makes it one of the most potent Arts Shulk has, though this is hampered by needing to be behind the opponent for maximum effect, meaning other party members have to draw the aggro away from Shulk (such as Reyn, whose main skill increases enemy aggro towards himself). Otherwise, this attack deals standard damage if hit anywhere else, although the damage is still higher than an auto-attack. The difficulty of landing the move in ''Smash'' mirrors this behavior, as opponents need to be caught offguard for a Back Slash to land and rewards Shulk for hitting backs with either increased damage (Buster) or a reliable KO move (Smash). | Back Slash is one of Shulk's physical Arts in ''Xenoblade Chronicles'', and is one of the two Arts (excluding his Talent Art) in his arsenal when he is introduced, being his main physical art.
