Meteor Chases the Moon Attack 3 30 Target Throw 1 dart at your target. You do not have to be facing your target.
Flying Flowers Attack 5 30 Target Throw 3 darts at the same target. When trained to level 5, the damage here is significant.

Summoning Spirits Feint 10 30 Target Block Breaking attack. This also drains parry from the person blocking. Doing this 3 or 4 times to break blocks will completely prevent them from blocking.
Soul With Moving Threads Block 1 N/A This will increase your movement speed by 30% plus 5% per level (up to 50%) for 30 seconds. This does stack with Following Madness.
Chasing One's Soul Rage 30 Self This adds large amounts of extra damage to every dart hit, but doesn't add internal (MP) cost. It also causes each attack to reduce huge chunks of the guard gauge if your opponent is blocking.
