Shutdown (シャットダウン, Shutdown) is one of Mecha-Fiora's physical Battle Arts in Xenoblade Chronicles. It puts foes to sleep for a short time, and if it's a Mechon, it also erases all its buffs and debuffs. It also has a potent amount of knockback, more than any other party member art.

Overview

The purpose of Shutdown dealing so much knockback is to push the foe out of Fiora's range so she doesn't just wake it up instantly with an auto-attack. But in many ways this kind of makes the sleep aspect obsolete, as Fiora can instead use the art to bully enemies off cliffs, and the sleep doesn't last long enough to be all that useful by itself. The ability to erase buffs from Mechon is minor but can be important, though she must be careful not to erase any good debuffs as well.
