^ Minor correction: "If he spent 10 times" should be "If he spent 10 seconds". And if you wanna know, Crimson Rose is an advanced class that gains chains (specifically, gun-sickles attached to chains) as new method of attacking. I'm not a native English speaker so this might not mean much coming from me, but "gathering steam" seems to be a familiar phrase especially referring to old-timey steam engines. I don't know what other people will say though. Does this count as well? * ''Videogame/DevilMayCry 4'': Nero's sword has the "Exceed" system where he "revs" the sword's handle which charges up heat energy into the sword; there are 3 units of it in the Exceed meter. If the meter is filled, each of his sword's normal combo strikes will become stronger as they consume one unit per strike, and his special moves with the sword consumes all of the meter. The unique part is how the meter is gained: he can normally rev it (just like how gatling guns spin up first) to fill the meter, but to fill each unit, the "rev" button must be pressed 3-4 times; it becomes tedious quickly to always rev it before you attack. But, he can also rev it ''during'' his sword strikes - called Ex-Act - and doing so will automatically give him one full unit that is immediately spent, making the strike immediately powerful; this can be done in normal sword combo attacks as well as special sword attacks. Even better, if he revs it during a specific frame of each sword strikes - called Max-Act - he will instantly gain 3 units (i.e full meter) with each swing, with one unit immediately being used.
