InKingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Diamond Dust isVexen's Limit Break. It summons three large mounds of ice that ascend from the ground to strike enemies, dealing ice damage andfreezing enemies. During the Final Limit, the three mounds of ice are replaced by one large glacier. This deals greater ice damage, continues to freeze enemies, and temporarily makes them gradually lose HP.
InKingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Diamond Dust is aCommand Style that can be used byTerra,Ventus, andAqua. It is activated by usingBlizzard-relatedDeck Commands or theSnow Bear ice cream item. When using Diamond Dust, the user gains an icy blue aura around them. Particles of ice emanate from the user's body as well. Terra, Ventus and Aqua's attacks become faster and deal ice damage. The standard four-hit combo deals Blizzard-type damage and the combo finisher consists of summoning three ice pillars that spin at a rapid speed. An ice pillar may be summoned during a combo. The finish command consists of the user producing a giant glacier, then bursting it around the user, dealing damage to nearby enemies.
