Tempest (テンペスト Tenpesuto?) is a spell that appears rarely in the Tales series. It has been significantly altered in each appearance and is invariably of the Wind element.
Arte Description and History[]
The spell first appears in the remakes of Tales of Phantasia, in which it summons three green-gray cyclones to assault all enemies on-screen. When cast in Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology, it appears as a mid-tier spell that summons three green cyclones to circle one another, while damaging the enemy. In Tales of Vesperia, the spell takes the form of a cyclone that is capable of gathering enemies from a short distance outside the area-of-effect before striking them with lightning. The spell is an altered arte of a similar spell, Havoc Gale. In Tales of Xillia 2, it is a linked arte used by Ludger Will Kresnik and Muzét, where Ludger leaps into their target and summons a tornado with his dual pistols while Muzét drops lightning bolts around the tornado. It is also the name of a skill in Tales of Zestiria that restores BG after a 10-hit combo.
In Tales of the Rays, it manifests as a pillar of swirling green wind that bursts into a blue whirlwind. Tempest is the master arte to Arria's Wind Circle, replacing that arte when it is used while standing still or moving.
