When the move lands, Robin will either declare the attack’s name or grunt menacingly if they have not already spoken the "Nosferatu!" voice line. Opponents grabbed take 2.4% [[darkness]] damage 8 times over several seconds (155 frames) for a total of 19.2% damage. Other opponents are knocked back if they touch the victim; this causes darkness effects but no damage. In the air, ensnaring an opponent with Nosferatu will cause both Robin and the opponent to slowly fall down. If the opponent lands before Robin does, Robin will continue floating in the air until the move has finished. Robin will be [[helpless]] if the move ends with him or her in the air. Using this move changes Robin's active tome to Nosferatu. | ||
The opponent held by Nosferatu may escape faster by [[button mashing]], depending on their percent. If their damage when initially grabbed is 0%, each input made will reduce the duration by an extra 5 frames. The higher their percent is when grabbed, the less effective each input will be. The effect is linear until 120%, where at that point mashing has no effect on the duration. When | The opponent held by Nosferatu may escape faster by [[button mashing]], depending on their percent.

In addition to its damaging properties, the move [[Healing|heal]]s Robin. For every tick of damage the move does, Robin heals for <code>(damage | In addition to its damaging properties, the move [[Healing|heal]]s Robin. For every tick of damage the move does, Robin heals for <code>(damage * 0.5) + (diff * 0.028)</code>, with "diff" being Robin's current damage minus the victim's damage (which cannot be negative, and updates after each tick of damage from the move). The healing is multiplied by 1.25x if the opponent is caught from behind. As a result, Robin will heal at least 12% damage if the opponent started with higher damage, and can heal over 25% if Robin has 100% or more damage than the opponent. The multiplier given by the "diff" caps at a 300% difference between Robin's current damage and the victim's damage, meaning you can heal a maximum of 76.8% from one use if <code>diff≥ 376.8</code> (without the usage of damage increasing effects such as spirits) | ||
Nosferatu | Nosferatu can only be used a total of 4 times (3 in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate|Ultimate]]'') before the tome's durability is depleted. The tome respawns after 40 seconds (30 in ''Ultimate'') have passed. This is the longest cooldown of all Robin's weaponry along with the least uses of any tome in Robin's arsenal. Because of this move's extremely limited uses, it can be used repeatedly in order to easily obtain a throwable used tome in the quickest time possible. Used tomes deal good damage and have KO potential when thrown. | ||

As a {{s|fireemblemwiki|Tactician}}, Robin ordinarily cannot use dark magic in ''Fire Emblem: Awakening'', though he or she can potentially wield such magic if he or she reclasses to one that can, such as a {{s|fireemblemwiki|Dark Mage}}; however, if Male Robin marries {{s|fireemblemwiki|Aversa}}, his daughter {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Morgan|Awakening}} gains the skill {{s|fireemblemwiki|Shadowgift}}, which allows her to use dark magic tomes in any Tome-wielding class. [[Masahiro Sakurai]] gave Robin the ability to use Nosferatu as a Tactician in order to "capture certain aspects of the original title".<ref>http://mynintendonews.com/2014/07/17/sakurai-explains-why-chrom-isnt-playable-in-smash-bros-says-he-lacks-any-unique-characteristics/</ref> | As a {{s|fireemblemwiki|Tactician}}, Robin ordinarily cannot use dark magic in ''Fire Emblem: Awakening'', though he or she can potentially wield such magic if he or she reclasses to one that can, such as a {{s|fireemblemwiki|Dark Mage}}; however, if Male Robin marries {{s|fireemblemwiki|Aversa}}, his daughter {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Morgan|Awakening}} gains the skill {{s|fireemblemwiki|Shadowgift}}, which allows her to use dark magic tomes in any Tome-wielding class.
