Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance

The skill **Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance** is an evolved version of Pagma's Sword Dance. It is way better than its previous version and also doesn't have any major drawbacks that Pagma's Sword Dance had.

## Information

**Goddess' Blessing Version**

The **Goddess' Blessing Version of Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance** was acquired by Grid once he used the Goddess' Blessing on his previous skill, the Pagma's Sword Dance. Once 'Pagma's Sword Dance' evolved into the 'Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance', the effects of the increase in physical attack power, critical hit probability, and critical hit damage were applied all the time. The Sword Dances related to this version consume Mana as their skill resource.

It is a skill that evolved using the Goddess' Blessing. Grid didn't learn it through any knowledge or hints left behind by Pagma. So this means - it was half-completed.

**Original Version**

The **Original Version of Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance** was acquired by Grid after experiencing the past of Pope Chreshler and Pagma. In the past experience, he understood the Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance, the original and complete skill. During this event, he also gained a title - the Great Swordsman, a new sword dance called Flower, and the Sword Energy. From this point on, when using a sword, the resource consumed was changed from Mana to Sword Energy. The fusion of Sword Dances become relatively free as well. Meanwhile, instead of having an increase in level, the Sword Dances were reset to level 1. The maximum level of all Single Sword Dances was fixed at three. However, the level of the Fusion Sword Dances was fixed at only one.

After acquiring the original version of this skill, Grid checked its information. It was more than he had expected. First of all, the changes to Wave and Drop were dazzling since they previously had comparatively low attack power and range. The other Sword Dances were also enhanced, the only problem was that all the previously fused sword dances, that Grid had worked hard to get, were reset and only Single Sword Dances remained. But it wasn't a big problem, the Sword Dances could easily be fused from now on, and also as the skill level increases, the number of Fused Sword Dances that can be created would increase simultaneously. Later on, for Grid, it evolved into the (Braham's Favor) Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance once he acquired the Braham's Favor.

Normal Sword Dances are performed by the Priests for the religious purposes, but the Sword Dances related to Pagma's and Grid's skills are different. They can also be used as Sword Techniques.

Note: These Sword Dances can also be used by Pagma and Grid's Clone, but these are the only Sword Dances which Grid can perform through this skill.

### Other Sword Dances

This section contains the Sword Dances which aren't available for Grid through this skill. These Sword Dances can only be performed either by Grid's Clone from Behen Archipelago or by Pagma. This doesn't mean that Pagma and Grid's Clone can't perform the above given Sword Dances. They can perform the above given Sword Dances as well, at least most of them. Objectively speaking, Pagma should be able to perform all of the Sword Dances given above easily. It is because he was the creator of this skill.

#### Other Sword Dance Available for Grid's Clone

* Splendor - was learned by Grid's Clone when he passed his Fourth Awakening while being in the Blackening state in Hell.

#### Other Sword Dances Available for Pagma

These are the Sword Dances that were used by Pagma during a short fight with Pope Chreshler. The Sword Dances learnt by Grid through this skill aren't listed here, but Pagma could perform them as well.

* Chop
* Linked Kill Flower
* Linked Revolve Pinnacle
* Transcend Kill Flower
* Transcended Pinnacle Kill Chop

## Notes

* After understanding the Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance, Grid would have gained the original version of this skill eventually, even without using the Goddess' Blessing.
* The title Great Swordsman does not guarantee 'Sword Energy', it is only a prerequisite. The same can be said for the Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance. As the title does not necessarily provide the resource-Sword Energy, the skill does not necessarily require Sword Energy. For the version of the skills which use Sword Energy as a resource, the title is necessary.
* Instead of being translated as Great Swordsman Pagma's Sword Dance, it was initially translated as **Great Swordsman Pagma's Swordsmanship**. Therefore, it was later on corrected, because the Korean word meant Sword Dance, not Swordsmanship. For more information, click here.
* Its initial form—the Pagma's Sword Dance is considered a Legendary Skill, so it should also be considered a Legendary Skill. After all, it is a better skill than its initial form.
