The Phoenix is a Curve-type ARMS weapon with the Fire attribute.
Description
Appearance
The Phoenix appears as a black bird atop a nest. Orange and yellow coloration is painted on parts of the bird body. When launched, 3 hatching chicks can be seen rotating in the nest.
Function
"These wild birds dart up, down, left, and right as they please. And when they catch fire, they look about as cool as anything ever." —Official Description
- Curved trajectory ARM, it travels in the direction of the punch, capable of traveling in both straight and arc trajectories.
- Unlike other Curve-type ARMS, it can arc its trajectory both up and down, as well as left to right.
- A Rush fires off the bird, if it misses it'll loop and return, if it lands it will cycle around hitting the target multiple times; weight class of the projectiles is increased to Heavy for the duration of the attack.

Trivia
- The Phoenix is one of the fastest Curve-type ARMS available, but suffers from considerable retraction time if they are countered.
- On the return journey from an attack, the Phoenix will appear to be watching the nest. This shares this trait with the Thunderbird.
