The 'Shadow Gauge' is a new mechanic in Nightre. It fills as you perform stealth attacks, backstabs, or absorb dark energy from certain enemy attacks. Once full, you can activate a powerful 'Nightfall Ability' by pressing L3+R3 (or equivalent). This ability is unique to your currently equipped weapon or spell. For example, the 'Nightfall Scythe' might unleash a wide dark wave, while a 'Dark Comet' sorcery might become a supercharged 'Void Comet'. These abilities consume the entire Shadow Gauge but can turn the tide of a difficult fight. Experiment with different weapons and spells to discover their unique Nightfall Abilities and integrate them into your combat rotation. Stealth is now more rewarding than ever.
