Cavalry (キャバルリィ Kyabaruryi?), localized as Charismatic Stance in Tales of Xillia and Tales of Xillia 2, is a self-boosting arte in the Tales series.
Arte Description and History[]
Cavalry is a self-buffing arte that prevents the user from staggering for a short duration of time. In Tales of the Abyss, this arte is also able to recover a small amount of HP if it is equipped with a Grass Chamber. When used in a Fire or Light FOF Circle, it becomes Phalanx, which provides the same effect but for a longer duration.
In the PlayStation 3 and Definitive Edition versions of Tales of Vesperia, the Athenor skill can alter this arte into Amenes Sorbe, which instead of preventing stagger, negates the damage from elemental attacks. In Tales of Xillia and Tales of Xillia 2, this arte becomes a skill that applies the same buff to Rowen J. Ilbert's Taunt action.
