My most recent run in Mana Spark was easily my best one. My build was as close to perfect as I could hope: I could fire multiple arrows per shot, the cooldown between shots almost nonexistent; my attack power was such that I could kill everything in one or two shots, thanks to my arrows…
Rage in Peace has seemingly one goal, and that is to make you rage quit. To its credit, it is very successful in that endeavour.

SoulCalbur VI is an excellent pickup, especially so for anyone like me, who’s fallen off from the series at a point.
