Each Monado Art also affects Shulk's attacking power with battering items like the [[Beam Sword]] (e.g. Smash reduces hitlag and damage while increasing knockback). However, they do not affect firing weapons like the [[Ray Gun]] or thrown items such as the [[Capsule]].

Shulk's [[Final Smash]], [[Chain Attack]], is also affected by the Monado Arts. With Buster, this attack becomes highly damaging, often sending the opponent into KO percents if the Art lasts the duration of the full attack, but cannot KO as effectively. With Smash, Shulk can KO at significantly earlier percents but, should the attack not clear the stock, Shulk will have hardly done as much damage to the opponent as desired, making it arguably riskier than with Buster. Speed and Shield will only reduce its effectiveness while Jump has no effect whatsoever. The Arts can run out in the middle of the Final Smash, so awareness of their durations and the situation is advised. In addition, the neutral special input will activate the Final Smash, and thus the desired Art to use during Chain Attack must be chosen beforehand. However, Monado Arts can be accessed even with a Final Smash on standby; Shulk must hold the button down while in aerial landing lag.
