Buster Ruin

Buster Ruin is a magic ability for Lightning in Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. It is a unique version of the Ruin spell for the Red Mage garb, dealing two non-elemental magic attacks. 
==Obtained==
Buster Ruin Lv. 2 is automatically obtained as the locked ability for the Red Mage garb, which is obtained from the Ark on Day 2.
==Mechanics==
When performed, Lightning will perform a combo finisher that unleashes two slow moving Ruin spells simultaneously at the target, dealing two hits of non-elemental magic damage. Like Ruin, Buster Ruin has a low stagger power. Unlike the default spell, Buster Ruin has a higher stagger time of A, functioning as a method to preserve the stagger wave of the target. It costs 15 ATB to use and can be used when airborne.
Buster Ruin has the following set stats and cannot be upgraded.
