Blunt Attack
Last updated 2026-08-23
Blunt Attacks or Heavy Attacks refer to attacks that can damage Geo objects and certain Shields more significantly than others, as well as Shatter Frozen targets. These include:
- Claymore Attacks, except Kinich's Mid-Air Normal Attack.
- Plunging Attacks by Sword, Claymore, and Polearm users, and Varesa.
- Most Geo DMG, except:[Note 1]
- Ningguang's Plunging Attack
- Gorou's Charged Attack and Crystal Collapses
- Yun Jin's Opening Flourish
- Chiori's "Sode" Coordinated Attack
- Xilonen's Elemental Skill
- Attacks infused with Geo that were not originally Blunt.
- Most attacks that appear as explosions
Note that Blunt is a separate attribute from poise damage. Although there is a tendency for Blunt attacks to have high poise damage, it is not always true that having a high poise damage makes the attack Blunt.
List of Blunt Attacks
Below is a full list of character abilities that are considered Blunt Attacks. Any ability not found here, including Passive Talents and Constellations, is either not considered Blunt or is missing from the page (Version 5.5 and onward only).
Notes
- ↑ Non-Blunt Geo attacks can still trigger Shatter, but do not benefit from the increased effectiveness against Geo Constructs and Shields.
