Diamond Dust is [[Vexen]]'s Limit Break. It summons three large mounds of ice that ascend from the ground to strike enemies, dealing ice damage and {{c|Freeze|status|freezing}} enemies. During the Final Limit, the three mounds of ice are replaced by one large glacier. This deals greater ice damage, continues to freeze enemies, and temporarily makes them gradually lose HP.

Mechanics

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Diamond Dust is Vexen's Limit Break. It summons three large mounds of ice that ascend from the ground to strike enemies, dealing ice damage and freezing enemies.

The standard four-hit combo deals 125% Blizzard-type damage and the combo finisher consists of summoning three ice pillars that spin at a rapid speed that deal 300% damage. An ice pillar may be summoned during a combo which deals 100% damage. The finish command consists of the user producing a giant glacier, then bursting it around the user and deals 300% ice damage to nearby enemies.
