* SequelDifficultySpike: ''Rebirth'' is much harder than ''Slayer''. Its bosses hit harder, the arenas are more cramped and the enemy swarms are fewer, making stockpiling aura much harder.
** ''Pursuit'' is intended as an insanely tough challenge that canonically takes place after ''Rebirth'' (but unlike the other stories, is not required to unlock ''Demise''). Thought one boss per stage was bad? Imagine having the Wing guardian, the Fist Golem, and the Undead King on your butt - ''simultaneously''. That's not even the worst of it.

* AwesomeYetImpractical: Needle. It's a really good option for dealing with far-ranged enemies, and can be a lot easier to use than the regular strong Sorcerous Bullets; but the needles themselves deal pitiful damage, prevent you from moving, and put you into an over-the-shoulder view, making it a bit hard to see. Hammer at least sees use as a powerful defense destroyer; but its long charge, wind-up, and cooldown times can make it difficult to actually land hits. Scythe can shred through mooks with ease, increases in damage as it kills and the more Aura you put into an attack, and can rapidly generate Aura against larger foes, but it's the only ability in the game with a percentage Aura cost rather than a fixed one. Stakes can deal a lot of focused damage, but has a prohibitive Aura drain per second, and is basically useless against anything out of that focused range.

* AwesomeYetImpractical: Hammer and Lance, mostly. Hammer locks down the Vessel's movement for the entire duration of the maneuver, in a game where being able to quickly move in and out of range and more importantly, ''blocking'', is an essential tool; while the strong version of the Lance gets stuck (requiring significant cooldown time) if it hits any sort of barrier on the boss (of which only one boss in ''Slayer'' ''may'' not have).

* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: Malice Mode in ''Rebirth''. If you can get the time to charge it up, it's more powerful than the third Aura stage and won't sap your Aura constantly. However, taking damage in that state saps a disproportionately large amount of Aura, and if your Aura hits 0, it's instant death. In addition, you lose the abilities you gained during ''Rebirth'' - stuff like Aura regen, increased Aura from Just Guards, Whip - and worse yet, if you go Malice, you can't leave it without either dying or beating the boss.

Compared to his peers, who all specialize in a single thing, he is competent enough in enough of everyone else's fields to not only create another Spirit Vessel, but also create a key to unseal the trapped Vessel at the beginning of ''Demise'', as well as an access key to give Hexa the absolute best chance he can to finish the job against the malice.
