Offensive Powers

Offensive powers are handled a little differently than the other powers. You are considered armed with offensive powers when you do not have any weapon equipped. You're certainly not unarmed-you have The Hand. Just press the fire button and you will attack with your offensive angelic power instead of a gun.

Exorcist

Exorcist is one of the first angelic powers you will regain. It doesn't cause a lot of damage, but it's cheap, has a rapid rate of fire, and most importantly it's an instant hit attack. Primarily useful when you are out of ammo and you want to attack from a distance.

Pentecost

If you like rapidly turning your enemies into steaming pieces of gore, this is the power for you. Pentecost emits a ball of electric energy from your hand. It travels relatively slowly, but it will pass through any living objects as it travels, and it causes some splash damage upon impact as well. Pentecost can be charged before it is fired, with the damage being proportional to the charge. If you charge up to the maximum, I guarantee you will kill almost anything you hit. It's also entertaining to kill multiple enemies, railgun style, by lining them up and passing the energy ball through them in a row. This is probably your most versatile offensive power.

Brimstone

Brimstone is probably the best bang for the buck for offensive powers. Costing only 20 Divine Essence, Brimstone fires a ball of hellfire from your hand. There is no splash damage, but your enemies will be engulfed in smoke and flame, causing moderate damage, and momentarily stunned. The fire rate is reasonably high, and the fireball travels much faster than pentecost.
