Ars Solum (ソロアルカナム Soro Arukanamu?, lit. "Solo Arcanum") is a technique in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Though it is exclusive to Terra, Terra-Xehanort can also use a version of this Deck Command, as he is an extension of Terra; however, the speed and amounts of hits it can land as well are greatly increased through the power of darkness. Ars Solum is a multi-hit combo.

Mechanics

In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Ars Solum is an Ultimate Attack Command that takes up two deck slots. Its maximum level is 6, and its reload time is 25 seconds. The player can add up to three additional hits if pressing Triangle successively when the on-screen prompts appear.
