Ruler's Gaze

Tier 3
verified 2026-07-11 · VV: Ultimatum spirit charms

Ruler's Gaze is a Tier 3 Spirit Charm in VV: Ultimatum that lets a manual rushdown activate "Geass" - a command that halts the opponent for a free follow-up, though affected enemies take 35% reduced damage.

Ruler's Gaze is an unmistakable Code Geass homage - "The world can not be changed with pretty words alone." - built around commanding your opponent to stop fighting. Performing a manual rushdown activates "Geass"; while it is active, you issue a command to the opponent to halt, freezing them for a free follow-up.

The restrictions keep it honest. Geass cannot be used on the same target twice and carries a cooldown, though being in "Aura" ignores the first restriction, letting an aura-popped aggressor command the same victim again. Two red-text clauses temper the punish: enemies affected by Geass have their damage taken reduced by 35%, so the "free" hit lands softer, and if your follow-up is blade caught, the cooldown continues as normal - a whiffed command is simply gone.

In practice it is a guaranteed-hit tool rather than a burst tool: ideal for landing slow, high-value attacks or securing posture damage that a mobile opponent would never allow. It rewards rushdown-heavy aggression and aura uptime. Ruler's Gaze requires Level 15, weighs 1 wt., and is documented as found in Hueco Mundo; no boss or vendor source is documented.

FAQ

How is Geass activated?

By performing a manual rushdown. While Geass is active you command the opponent to halt, opening a free follow-up attack.

Can you Geass the same player twice?

Normally no - it cannot be used on the same target twice. Being in Aura ignores that restriction, though the cooldown still applies.
