Star Blast
NoLegs jumps onto a star...
And then blasts the foes.
Star Blast is a non-elemental skill available for NoLegs in Epic Battle Fantasy 5.
Description
When cast, NoLegs jumps onto a large, glowing star that flies in behind him. His eyes flash briefly before he flies through the field, blasting all foes with stars that deal very accurate non-elemental magic damage with a high chance of inflicting Dispel.
Star Blast is a powerful and versatile skill, being able to reliably Dispel all foes while also inflicting substantial damage that can't be resisted and is difficult to dodge. However, NoLegs is typically a physically-inclined character due to his skillset (although most of his Cat Toys give bonuses to both offenses), so he'll rarely be equipped to maximize the damage of this skill. More pertinently, Star Blast has a 10-turn cooldown that can leave it inaccessible for the rest of a battle; even with the Nano Machines, it'll still take 5 turns to recharge. As such, it should typically be used only when its multi-target Dispel effect is needed; using it randomly could leave the players in a tight spot later on.

Trivia
- The star NoLegs rides on when using Star Blast is apparently a Warp Star, like the one from the Kirby franchise. This same star is seen in the EBF5 intro, and is NoLegs's weapon of choice in the Bullet Heaven series.
- Star Blast can be considered the offensive counterpart to Nine Lives. Both are powerful magic skills exclusive to NoLegs, both begin with him jumping onto a Warp Star, and both have a 10-turn cooldown to balance out their effectiveness.
