Trivia[]

- Agkuza is derived from the Sanskrit aṅkuśá; a type of hook, particularity one used by an elephant-driver.
- Blocking with a melee will grant knockdown protection against obstacles, allowing for smoother flight. Alternatively, performing a slide/dash attack will allow passage through obstacles without slowing down.
