Rapid Volley
The rapid volley ability is used by matchlock-armed samurai, enabling them to greatly increase their rate of missile fire against a single target. Once activated, there is only a short time available to strike before the ability burns out. It is then unavailable for a fixed period, thereby limiting its exploitability. Rapid volleys are not available at the very start of a battle.
