Overload is a Focus-based attack used by Nilin Cartier-Wells. By forcing an enormous amount of memory information into an enemy's mind through their Sensen, Nilin incapacitates them.
Mechanics[]
Overload is a powerful finishing move. Enemies that have been attacked with a number of Power Pressens become vulnerable to Overload for a short period of time. Vulnerable enemies will bend over or stumble and a prompt to "Overload" them will appear. Nilin has a limited period time to overload a staggered enemy. Overload will interrupting Nilin's current combo but also make her invincible during the animation.
Finishing an enemy with Overload provides Nilin with more Focus than a normal Combo.
In boss fights, such as against Kid X-Mas, a Zorn or Johnny Greenteeth, a quick-time event has to be completed by pressing the buttons appearing on screen before the Overload is successful.
Trivia[]
It is unknown whether a Memory Overload is lethal or not.
Overload works on inorganic enemies; Zorn robots can be shut down through an overload.
