The Vengeful Spirit spell causes The Knight to conjure a spirit projectile which travels forward, dealing damage to enemies it passes through, It is used by pressing the Focus/Cast or Quick Cast buttons without holding the Up or Down inputs on the D-Pad.
- Vengeful Spirit flies in the direction the Knight is facing and deals a base damage of 15. It will pass through opponents, dealing damage to each one.
