== Appearances ==
===Final Fantasy VII Remake===
Heavenly Strike is an ability used by Shiva for 2 ATB segments. She conjures a block of ice and smashes it down onto an opponent, greatly increasing stagger. The move is powerful and good for staggering, but slow to start and thus may miss. It is most effective against stopped or sleeping opponents.
=== Final Fantasy X ===
Heavenly Strike is an ability used by Shiva. A non-elemental physical attack, it also has an added effect of inflicting the Threaten status on the enemy. It is a Rank 4 ability, meaning it has a longer recovery time than a normal Attack.
Heavenly Strike can also be used by Belgemine's Shiva during the two optional occasions she can be fought, where it inflicts Threaten in the former and a weak Delay in the latter. When fighting Shiva Inside Sin, it inflicts strong Delay. Dark Shiva uses her own version of Heavenly Strike, which is a Rank 2 ability and inflicts Instant Death, Berserk, and Confusion.
==== Final Fantasy X-2 ====
Heavenly Strike is an enemy ability that halves the target's HP and MP, and inflicts Stop. It is used by Shiva.
=== Final Fantasy XI ===
Heavenly Strike is Shiva's level 75 Blood Pact. It may only be employed by Summoners who enable it with three Merit Points. The attack deals substantial Ice damage that increases with Shiva's TP. Additional Merit Points may be spent to enhance this effect. Heavenly Strike is classified as a spell and can therefore magic burst for even greater results if executed at the end of an appropriate skillchain.
