'''Chain Attack''' ({{ja|チェインアタック|Chein Atakku}}, ''Chain Attack'') is {{SSB4|Shulk}}'s [[Final Smash]]. In this Final Smash, Shulk attempts to catch his opponent in front of him with a bright light (similar to [[Vision]]'s counter particle, except larger) while shouting "Dunban!" or "Riki!". If successful, the screen fades to white, and a cinematic with the Vision effect around the screen appears as Shulk summons [[Dunban]], [[Riki]], and (in ''Ultimate'') [[Fiora|Mecha-Fiora]] to assist him. The three proceed to attack trapped opponents before Shulk sends them flying with a charged Monado slash. | |||
' | The Final Smash deals varying damage depending on which of Shulk's [[Monado Arts]] is set-- overall, Buster deals the most damage and the lowest knockback, while Smash deals the best knockback but little damage (41%-55% for Buster, and 15%-20% for Speed, Shield, and Smash). The initial strike from the blinding light deals 3% damage (4% for Buster, and 1% for Speed, Shield, and Smash), and the attack deals 2% for each consecutive strikes (3% for Buster, and 1% for Speed, Shield, and Smash). The final Monado slash will deal 17% damage (23% for Buster, and 9% for Speed, Shield, and Smash), launching the target(s) horizontally. It is capable of KOing opponents at around 40% without any active Arts (20% for Smash, over 80% for Buster). The selected Monado Art, however, cannot be changed after the Smash Ball is acquired since pressing the special move button will start the Final Smash instead. | ||
Interestingly, and as mentioned by one of the [[List of tips (SSB4-Wii U)|tips]], Chain Attack has two variations; however, the only difference between them is the name Shulk calls out while activating the move: | |||
*First he speaks out either "Dunban!" ({{ja|ダンバンさん!|Danban-san!}}, ''Mr. Dunban!'') or "Riki!" ({{ja|リキ!|Riki!}}) | |||
**Then afterwards: "Let's go everyone!" ({{ja|みんな行くよ!|Minna iku yo!}}) or "Time for a Chain Attack!" ({{ja|連携で決める!|Renkei de kimeru!}}, ''Settle this coordination!'') | |||

In ''Xenoblade Chronicles'', successfully scoring critical hits or attacks' bonus effects fills the Party Gauge, which can be spent for various benefits. Filling all three bars of the Party Gauge spawns blue lines that link the three party members forming a triangle, allowing to use a Chain Attack against targeted enemies trapped in the triangle. Chain Attacks freeze time and allow the entire party to use successive Arts on a single enemy, even Arts that have not finished cooling down, although auto-attacks cannot be performed. Chain Attacks reduce the enemy's defenses against status effects, gain damage multipliers for using Arts of the same category in succession and can continue for up to fifteen hits based on the party's affinity. | In ''Xenoblade Chronicles'', successfully scoring critical hits or attacks' bonus effects fills the Party Gauge, which can be spent for various benefits.

''In Xenoblade Chronicles, building up the party's team spirit would let them use a chain attack, using multiple Arts in a row to deal massive damage. In this game, Shulk's Final Smash calls party members Dunban and Riki to help obliterate an unlucky target... or multiple targets if you catch more than one in the circle of light!'' | |||
