Special Move

Special Moves are a set of advanced moves in Shadow Fight 3. They are a series of attack combo which can be applied to armors or weapons to increase their overall effectiveness in fights.

Description
Special Moves are classified based on their rarity: Rare, Epic , and Legendary. Special Moves with higher rarity mostly tend to have better combo, higher power, or both.

Special Move can be bought from the store. Otherwise, they can be obtained from chests won in duels, booster packs, or as rewards for defeating opponents in main and side quests. If the players receive a move they already own, a part of an upgrade bar will fill up. When the bar fills up completely, the move will be upgraded to the next power level. Better chest or booster pack may contain moves with higher rarity. As for the moves obtained from fights, players may get moves with random rarity; it is possible to get move with Epic or Legendary rarity, but the chance is small.
