Mind Blast

Mine Blast is one of 's burst s in Xenoblade Chronicles. It is a hand-directed blast of ether that deals high damage, erases auras, and inflicts Arts Seal. As a burst art, it cannot be used unless Melia's Elemental Burst aura is active.

Overview
Mind Blast is less reliable than Monado Purge for dealing with auras, as it has a long cooldown and Melia must have her burst aura active. But it has its own uses, such as a wide range, higher damage, and Arts Seal, which no other party member can inflict. However, it generates very high temporary aggro, in addition to the aggro caused by its high damage, and can easily catch enemies that were not previously in the battle. It is also the slowest art in the game to hit, at a whopping 4 seconds (though not the slowest to entirely finish executing).
