Any attack with an absolute, guaranteed 100% chance-to-hit (alternatively a skill that grants this condition to an attack). This can be a valuable tool against certain targets who are otherwise difficult to actually land a strike against, but will usually involve a tradeoff such as: Lower-than-average damage compared to other attacks. Requiring complete concentration and not being distracted or attacked. Requiring the target to be marked first. Requiring the target to be within a certain range or line of sight. Requiring immobilization or becoming vulnerable to attacks. Being exclusive to one character. In addition, the attack can still be blocked or neutralized before it hits the target. See also Improbable Aiming Skills, No Saving Throw, Puppet Gun, and Homing Projectile. Contrast Projectile Spell; where a spell effect can be dodged, and Powerful, but Inaccurate. |

Butcher of the web serial Worm has this as one of her powers. She creates a minor spatial-warping effect that ensures her attacks are always on target so long as the target is within range. In order to take complete advantage of this power, she uses a gatling gun. | |

In Thunder Force V and VI, there is the Free Range. What it does is that it makes a green, wireframe conical shaped area from the character◊ (that can be aimed), and if anything steps into the green area, they are fried by an instant-hit laser that never misses. (Even better if you have three Attack Drones active, as all three will fire too). | |

PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale has characters with variants of this such as Heihachi, Spike and PaRappa. Regardless of any circumstances, these Level 3 Super Moves will wipe out every other character in play. Of course the drawback to this is that characters like Kratos and Sackboy can get two kills per player if they are skilled enough with their Level 3 Super. | |

In the gamebook series Blood Sword because the combat rules have your characters roll against their skill in attacking (a roll of equal or lower than your skill means a success), your characters (except the Sorcerer) can reach a high enough experience level that they will NEVER miss their attacks even without a magic weapon. Unfortunately there are quite a few enemies who are equally skilled and your character will be taking damage each round, unless you elect to dodge that turn. | |

Might and Magic: The Implosion in the Ernothian trilogy. Most of other single target spells fall into Projectile Spell category that can be evaded, making you waste your mana if they miss. Implosion instead deals damage directly after targeting it and only thing that can negate it is complete immunity against air magic damage. Unusually, this spell also deals rather good damage. Mass Distortion is also an example, on top of being Percent Damage Attack. | |

Evil Islands: All offensive magic works that way (though it doesn't necessarily have to deal damage). That's why most enemies wielding it have less hp than other monsters in the area. It's also the reason why Kharad's spear is so powerful. | |

In Breath of Fire IV, Scias's "Shining Blade" is a critical hit that never misses (but can be parried)note To keep it from becoming a Game-Breaker, it has a very high AP cost, and Scias has very low overall AP, while the "Target" skill is a half-powered strike that cannot be parried (or miss). | |

Tales Series: Tales of the Abyss features "Mystic Cage", Jade's first Mystic Arte. All enemies, regardless of their position on the battlefield, is encased in a sphere of pure magical energy, which explodes and damages all of them. On a general note, the Mystic Artes throughout the series are with few exceptions, guaranteed to at least connect with the enemy that's the user's current target. Also, some spells strike the entire battlefield and/or freeze the action when they go off, which makes avoiding damage from them impossible outside of using invincibility or being immune to their element. The recurring spell Photon (and its darkness-based equivalent Dark Sphere) will always hit whatever it's aimed at. |

Fire Emblem: Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones: The Sniper class has the Sure Strike skill, which ensures a 100% accurate hit if it activates. Unfortunately, this skill tends to be unneeded, as your Sniper characters would have high hit chance anyways, and even worse if it activates when an enemy Sniper attacks your characters. Fire Emblem: Awakening has the Hawkeye skill, which can stack with Luna+. Of course, those skills are exclusive to enemies on Lunatic+. In Fire Emblem Engage, all Engage attacks are guaranteed to hit regardless of the target's Avoid, or whether or not Chain Guard or Bonded Shield are active. There's also the Surge/Elsurge tome, which has a perfect hit rate but can only be used in close combat. |

The Sharingan from Naruto grants a special eye-based attack called Amaterasu, which engulfs whatever the user looks at in black flames. Even worse, the flames last 7 days and nights, and can only be stopped with a sealing technique. It's not perfect, as the flames seem to burn fairly slowly and most of the people hit with it in the series are able to counter it before being injured too badly. You can also still dodge it if you're so fast your opponent can't even keep their eyes on you. | |

The MechWarrior series of simulators set in the BattleTech universe features the Streak short range missile, a guided missile launcher that are guaranteed to hit its target - and will perform some ridiculous maneuvers to do so - at the cost of requiring a lock and weighing more than standard SRM launchers. Mechwarrior Living Legends is the only game where they are not perfectly accurate due to more realistic missile tracking limitations, but they gain the ability to be dumbfired. Streaks were particularly ridiculous when first introduced in Mechwarrior Online, where they would always hit your center torso, the most vital part of your Humongous Mecha. | |

World of Warcraft: The Glyph of Divine Accuracy increases the chance to hit with Smite by 18%, high enough for it to always hit under normal circumstances. Discipline priests attack with Smite to grant themselves the Evangelism and Archangel bonuses and Smiting an enemy will heal an ally for the same amount, but they can still be primary healers. Consequently they don't care about hitting with any other spell, and don't want to waste a lot of gear on improving their hit rating for one spell. As of Mists of Pandaria, a similar ability is automatically granted to all healing classes, limited to the couple damaging spells each specific class has. Since it is useful for the healer to attack in some situations, this finally allows them to do so reliably, without having to waste stats on +hit rating that is useless to healing. In the Pokémon-like pet battle system there are many attacks that are marked as having 100% accuracy, although this can be reduced by status effects and other modifiers. Some units therefore have a laser attack with 200% accuracy, ensuring that it should always hit in normal circumstances. Similarly, there are some pets with abilities that should allow their next attack to always hit. However, there are plenty of shenanigans that the opponent can pull to avoid these regardless. |

Blue Archive: ** For student Skills, if the attacker's Accuracy stat exceeds the target's Evasion, said target cannot evade it unless their hitbox is outside the selected area. An inversion can happen from the fact that AOE attacks can miss even if the target's hitbox is in the skill’s radius, due to the Accuracy-Evasion difference being in favor of the latter. | |

Iratus: Lord of the Dead: The Headhunter, being an undead with heads on their belt and not on their neck, has a Mark Target skill that causes them to automatically attack the position they marked on their next turn with 100% accuracy. Note that it can still fail if the opponent has a stack of Block, which can block any single physical-based damage skill once. The Skeleton can also upgrade their base Armor-Piercing Attack to never miss. The werewolf can upgrade their two-hit combo to never miss. Most importantly, there is a magitech eye artifact that prevents the undead using it from ever missing. The only drawback is that it takes up one of the undead's two precious artifact slots. |

One of the stated properties of Darkseid's Omega Beams is that they track their targets unerringly across space and time, and always eventually hit what Darkseid intends to hit. Except when they don't, but even then they always seem to hit someone. In Justice League Unlimited, Darkseid even remarks that Batman was the first person to ever dodge his Omega Beams (granted, by throwing a Mook into the way). |

On account of the fact that there are no Evasion or Accuracy stats in Undertale, all of your attacks are always accurate and the only thing you can affect with the QTE when you attack is how powerful your attacks are, unless you completely neglect to press any buttons during the QTE, that is, in which case the game registers your attack as a "miss"... On the other hand, the monsters you're attacked by use Bullet Hell patterns, giving you a fair chance at dodging all of their attacks. This is all flipped on its head by the final boss of No Mercy route who exploits the lack of Accuracy and Evasion stats in order to evade all of your attacks and has one sneaky attack pattern that's completely unavoidable. | |

Tou Sengyoku from Hoshin Engi has a stone-shaped Paope called Gokoseki which will always hit its target, causing the victim to make a ridiculously dramatic face. Only Yozen was once able to redirect it using an attack-repelling Paope, Kongensan. | |

Disgaea 2 turned this trope into a character class, the Rifle Demon, commonly called the Baciel. Their attacks always hit, even against characters with high speed or critical HP Ninja (who get insane dodge rates when under 25% HP). Disgaea 3 possibly broke this wide open by turning this trope into an equippable item, the Naive Glasses (due to the fixed "Heat Seeker" specialist inside of it). | |

Fate Series: Fate/stay night: Lancer's spear Gae Bolg has the ability to always pierce the heart of the enemy. "Always" meaning the result (heart pierced) is already set and the cause is created after that, even if it has to involve reality warping. It has the caveat that really lucky people can Screw Destiny and get away with merely getting hit somewhere non-fatally, which conveniently includes everyone the weapon is ever used against. It is also possible to avoid it by getting out of range before Lancer thrusts it. The thrown version, meanwhile, is more powerful but also lacks the reversed cause and effect: It cannot be dodged because it's a seeking missile, but it can be blocked. Archer employs a shield proof against all missiles against it, which fails to block it completely but allows him to survive it. Fate/hollow ataraxia: Archer has Hrunting, the sword of Beowulf, which he modified into an arrow. When used as a sword, it seeks the opponent's blood to find the optimal path to slash them. When fired as an arrow, it seeks the target's blood and it will continue to pursue the target, even if is parried, repulsed, or avoided, for as long as the shooter keeps aiming at them. The only way to avoid it is to break Archer's concentration or kill him before the arrow lands. Bazett Fraga McRemitz has Fragarach, a flying sword similar to Gae Bolg because it reverses time to always pierce the opponent's heart. However, it only has this effect if it is used as a Counter-Attack against the opponent's strongest attack. If it is used as a regular attack, it becomes an ordinary projectile. Fate/Grand Order: Sir Tristan of the Round Table wields the many-stringed magical bow Failnaught, which, true to its name, fires homing arrows that hit their target without fail. It is said the only way to avoid it is to move out of its range or jump to another dimension. As a result, he rarely bothers aiming at the enemy or even firing the bow properly at all, instead playing the strings like a harp. King David has Hamesh Avanim, the sling and stones he used to defeat Goliath. Drawing on his story, the first four stones he launches are warning shots, but the fifth one never misses. William Tell, meanwhile, brings in his Apfel Schiessen, that "never misses" with no regard for causality in a very similar way to Gae Bolg. And if the attack does miss somehow, it lets him activate a second Noble Phantasm called Zweite Schiessen with an even stronger version of the exact same effect, as a nod to the spare bolt he was saving to murder the man who got him in the original William Telling mess. This is not a man who fails to hit his target. However, in his battle with the heroes, Lakshmi Bai weaponizes her incredible bad luck to make all his arrows hit her instead of her allies, as she is tough enough to survive them. Calamity Jane's Noble Phantasm, Space Dead Man's Hand, is a recreation of her lover Wild Bill Hickock's death. No matter where she fires her bullet, even if she is standing in front of her opponent, the bullet will swerve until it hits them in the back of the head. |

Powers with the Perception modifier in Mutants & Masterminds always connect, but still allow the target to make a saving throw. The inverse is the No Save modifier, which forgoes the save, but causes it to only do Scratch Damage, or the most minimal effect possible.note Which can be a Game-Breaker if used with powers that don't have staged effects. Of course, even if you have both of these modifiers on a power, your opponent can still negate your attack with a counter. | |

Dungeons & Dragons 1st Edition Deities and Demigods Cyclopedia. Celtic Mythos: Goibhnie, the god of blacksmithing, makes weapons that never miss. Morrigan has two spears that never miss. Central American mythos. The god Xochipilli's attacks don't miss. Chinese mythos. The goddess Tou Mu has a bow that never misses an opponent within 100 yards. Egyptian mythos. The god Apshai's bite never misses. Bes, the god of luck, never misses with his attacks. Greek mythos. The goddess Aphrodite can damage opponents just by waving her hand. The goddess Athena never misses her targets. While the goddess Tyche is looking at a creature with only her right eye, the creature will always hit any target it attacks. Hindu mythos. The goddess Ratri can give an angry look that does damage automatically. The god Tvashtri has a device that fires beams that always hit their targets up to 300 yards away. Melnibonean mythos: Arrows of Law will always hit a chaotic creature. The demigod Haaashastaak always hits with his bite. Nonhuman deities. Corellon Larethian has a bow that never misses. Norse mythos. The god Forseti's sword always hits any opponent who has lied in the last 7 days or is chaotic. Thor's hammer Mjölnir never misses when thrown. When firing his bow the god Uller's bow never misses targets less than 200 yards away. Sumerian mythos. The goddess Inanna can aid warriors by making sure they never miss an attempted hit. 3.X Edition Deities and Demigods: greater deities are treated as always rolling the maximum possible value on attack rolls: i.e. natural twenties every time. In D&D, if you get a natural twenty on an attack roll, you automatically hit, regardless of what your total attack roll actually is. In other words: greater deities always hit. Now throw in the fact that the "maximum roll" rule also applies to damage rolls... Some spells simply always hit (Magic Missile is the poster child for this in all editions, including the 4th post-errata), and many others will still have at least a reduced effect on the target even on a nominal miss (successful saving throw in 3.x and earlier). In addition, the True Strike spell grants a massive accuracy bonus to your next attack, enough that any attack which already had a chance of hitting becomes an automatic hit (unless you roll a 1). 5th edition maintains Magic Missile's perfect accuracy (that is, you don't even need to roll to hit, only for damage), instead including a Highly Specific Counterplay: The Shield spell (which primarily increases AC between turns) notes that the caster takes no damage from Magic Missile. 5th Edition’s version of the Marut always hits with its slam attacks, and always does a flat amount of damage with them. It doesn’t let players save to reduce the damage they take from its Blazing Edict ability, either. |

From Dies Irae, the inescapable attack is Eleonore von Wittenburg's signature ability. However it is not something that chases its target nor is it an explosion that expands without limit. Rather, it is described as making escape impossible from the get-go like being trapped in a narrow tunnel. This is exemplified with her Beri’ah which creates an endless land of flames which scorches her opposition and leaves them completely without any chance for escape. This is also why she is able to beat Wolfgang Schreiber who would otherwise completely evade any sort of attack made against him regardless of speed or accuracy. | |

Final Fantasy VI has the Sniper Scope artifact, which supposedly gives the Fight command 100% accuracy. However, a bug in the original SNES version causes the game to use Magic Evade in place of Physical Evade when calculating hit rate, meaning that it in fact does nothing. This bug was fixed in subsequent rereleases. Certain magic spells like Meteor and Ultima will always hit the target regardless of said target's evasion stat. | |

In Fred Saberhagen's Book of Swords series, this is Farslayer's stated ability: Throw the sword with a target in mind and Farslayer will fly unerringly towards that target, no matter how far away, and strike him down. The drawback to this is that it's a one-way trip, leaving Farslayer there for anyone to pick up and use. And yes, "the person who just killed my friend/love/relative" is an entirely legitimate target for Farslayer's power. |

Looper: Loopers use special blunderbusses because as long as you're within 10-15 feet of the target, you can't miss. This is particularly useful for them, because they simply stand at a location where they know their target is about to appear. Beyond that range, the weapons are virtually worthless. | |

In Xenoblade Chronicles 3, the Chaotic Memory accessory allows a character's Arts to always hit regardless of the target's Agility and Block Rate, as long as it's cancelled into. However, they still don't work on enemies performing perfect evasion Arts, and the need to cancel into it means enemies with high Block Rates can interrupt your character's auto-attack, which prevents cancelling, forcing you to wait until an auto-attack isn't blocked or equip an Auto-Balancer. | |

BattleTech Streak missiles are guaranteed to score a hit with all missiles if they can lock on to a target. If they don't lock on, they don't fire at all — the weapon won't produce heat, won't expend ammo, and is considered unused that turn. Typical missiles may miss their entire salvo altogether, or only hit with part of their salvo count, so Streak launchers are extremely efficient. The downside is that they are more bulky and expensive. Like all missile weapons, Streak missiles can be shot down by an anti-missile system, potentially destroying all the missiles in a given salvo. Any unit without one, however, can do nothing but weather the damage and avoid being targeted next turn. The Targeting Computer is a special weapons acquisition system that when installed, allows a Mech, vehicle, or aircraft to hit its intended target with nigh-on accuracy no matter what weapon it's equipped with. This makes it one of the most valuable pieces of equipment when obtained and has the potential to be a Game-Breaker in its own right. |

In Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple, Ryuuto Asamiya has an open palm strike he refers to as "Gungnir", as it always hits its target and cannot be blocked or dodged.

Ratchet & Clank: While weapons with auto-targetting property or even lock-on mode can miss, the Tesla Claw from the first game will hit enemy without fail if it is in the weapon's range. When the enemy is killed it will automatically redirect its arc to next available target (if there is any), and its gold version can even split the electric arc to strike two enemies at the same time. The Spitting Hydra/Tempest from Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal is also guaranteed to hit the enemy it is locked on, as its locking mechanism works a bit differently from standard lock-on mode upgrade. | |

Pokémon: Moves such as Aura Sphere, Swift, Aerial Ace, Feint Attack, Magnet Bomb, Shadow Punch, Magical Leaf, and Shock Wave always strike the target, although they can also be negated by Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors or the moves Protect and Detect. Since the second generation, attacks that involve moving out of range before striking (Fly, Dig, etc.) can also be used to avoid these attacks. In addition, the anime shows these moves missing like any other move when a Pokémon dodges. "Lock-On" and "Mind Reader" ensure the next attack will hit, even if the target uses Fly or Dig, though the target can still defend itself. The move "Vital Throw" is always accurate with the trade-off of having decreased priority, executing slower than the opponent. The "No Guard" ability grants this status to any move its user performs ... and any move that gets used against them. Interestingly, this does allow it to hit (and be hit) whilst out of range during the wind-up of moves like Fly and Dig. In Generation VI, Poison got a buff that makes it so if a Poison-type Pokemon uses the move Toxic, it will always land regardless of the situation, even if the target is out of range. This also caused a glitch that allowed Poison-types to have any move hit with perfect accuracy if Toxic was used in the same turn (e.g. if Oranguru uses Instruct to make the Pokémon use Toxic prior to their regular attack), though it was fixed in Pokémon Sword and Shield. Roar and Whirlwind also got buffed in Generation VI, ignoring accuracy checks as well as Protect, Detect, and Spiky Shield, in exchange for lower priority. Thunder and Hurricane bypass accuracy checks in the rain; likewise, Blizzard bypasses accuracy in a hailstorm. Z-Moves, introduced in Generation VII, are not only extremely powerful but also bypass accuracy checks to always hit. They even hit through moves like Protect, albeit at 25% of their original damage. Snipe Shot zigzags this trope; while it still has an accuracy check, it ignores any and all effects that redirect attacks like Follow Me and Storm Drain. |

Fate/Grand Order: Sir Tristan of the Round Table wields the many-stringed magical bow Failnaught, which, true to its name, fires homing arrows that hit their target without fail. It is said the only way to avoid it is to move out of its range or jump to another dimension. As a result, he rarely bothers aiming at the enemy or even firing the bow properly at all, instead playing the strings like a harp. King David has Hamesh Avanim, the sling and stones he used to defeat Goliath. Drawing on his story, the first four stones he launches are warning shots, but the fifth one never misses. William Tell, meanwhile, brings in his Apfel Schiessen, that "never misses" with no regard for causality in a very similar way to Gae Bolg. And if the attack does miss somehow, it lets him activate a second Noble Phantasm called Zweite Schiessen with an even stronger version of the exact same effect, as a nod to the spare bolt he was saving to murder the man who got him in the original William Telling mess. This is not a man who fails to hit his target. However, in his battle with the heroes, Lakshmi Bai weaponizes her incredible bad luck to make all his arrows hit her instead of her allies, as she is tough enough to survive them. Calamity Jane's Noble Phantasm, Space Dead Man's Hand, is a recreation of her lover Wild Bill Hickock's death. No matter where she fires her bullet, even if she is standing in front of her opponent, the bullet will swerve until it hits them in the back of the head. |

Fate/stay night: Lancer's spear Gae Bolg has the ability to always pierce the heart of the enemy. "Always" meaning the result (heart pierced) is already set and the cause is created after that, even if it has to involve reality warping. It has the caveat that really lucky people can Screw Destiny and get away with merely getting hit somewhere non-fatally, which conveniently includes everyone the weapon is ever used against. It is also possible to avoid it by getting out of range before Lancer thrusts it. The thrown version, meanwhile, is more powerful but also lacks the reversed cause and effect: It cannot be dodged because it's a seeking missile, but it can be blocked. Archer employs a shield proof against all missiles against it, which fails to block it completely but allows him to survive it. | |

Granblue Fantasy: The Mirror Image buff allows enemies to dodge normal attacks, spells, and charge attacks. But the player's Summon Calls will always remove this effect (negating the enemies' 100% evasion) and deal damage to them. Additionally, the damage from Summon Calls completely ignores the enemy's dodge rate. Super Ultimate Bahamut has access to a buff called "Godsight", which ensures its attacks and debuffs will always land in spite of any buffs/debuffs that would affect their chance to hit, for the latter half of the raid. |

The Strike Badge effects in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. Hit the touch screen icon, blast one or more enemies with an unavoidable bolt of lightning. There are also some enemy examples... Like the Robo Drilldigger's initial energy ball attack. Luigi doesn't raise his hammer in time regardless of what you do, so he gets hit anyway. It's set up so you then get taught how to heal, as well as how to block the attack correctly afterwards. Thankfully, the attack can't KO you (even if your HP is down to almost nothing) despite the fact that it normally drains about 1/3 of your HP, as it's really just a cutscene to set up the rhythm mushroom tutorial. Pi'illodium's self destruct sequence is this, if you fail to defeat it before the timer runs out. The explosion that occurs on his next turn is completely unavoidable for all characters. Depending on your HP, it'll either be a Taking You W Ith Me for him or a Pyrrhic Victory for Mario & Luigi. |

Final Fantasy: In many games in the series, magic is always successful on targets with "Invisible" status — even Useless Useful Spells. For Final Fantasy VI in particular, even Contractual Boss Immunity cannot protect against this, making it a Game-Breaker of a bug. Various games have the Excalipoor weapon. On one hand, it only inflicts 1 HP worth of damage with each attack. On the other hand, it always inflicts 1 HP worth of damage with each attack. Which is pretty useful when you must hit a monster that has absurdly high defense and evasion, or when you absolutely must inflict a certain status effect (via landing a Magic Sword skill). Rosa in Final Fantasy IV has Aim, which makes her bow and arrow attacks always hit. Final Fantasy V brings back "Aim" as a Ranger skill that can work with any weapon. Another Ranger skill, the Rapid Fire command, grants 4 always-accurate attacks per weapon on random targets for half damage, and it ignores the target's defense. Final Fantasy V also introduced the Blue Magic Goblin Punch. The spell does about as much damage as your basic attack, but never misses, can't be blocked, and strikes for the same damage from the back row. As it's free to cast it's a handy replacement for your Blue Mage's regular attack so you can keep the low-accuracy Squishy Wizard safely in the back row. There's also the recurring Blue Magic Cactuar spell 1000 Needles, which always hits for 1000 damage. Great for enemies with really high defense. Final Fantasy VI has the Sniper Scope artifact, which supposedly gives the Fight command 100% accuracy. However, a bug in the original SNES version causes the game to use Magic Evade in place of Physical Evade when calculating hit rate, meaning that it in fact does nothing. This bug was fixed in subsequent rereleases. Certain magic spells like Meteor and Ultima will always hit the target regardless of said target's evasion stat. In Final Fantasy VII, Vincent's Sniper CR rifle has a hit rate of 255%. This can be combined with the Deathblow materia, which halves the hit rate in exchange for double damage, for a double-damage attack that always hits and can be combined with support materia that let it steal HP or MP, etc. In Final Fantasy VIII, the gunblade used by the hero Squall Leonhart has maximum (255%) accuracy even for its most basic model. This means that Squall never misses with it, even while affected by the Blind status effect. Selphie's final weapon upgrade also gains this property. |

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones: The Sniper class has the Sure Strike skill, which ensures a 100% accurate hit if it activates.

The Huntsman in The 10th Kingdom has a crossbow that, when fired, will always pierce someone's heart. The queen gave it to him in a deal — all he had to do was close his eyes, turn around a few times, and fire once at random. (He killed his own son from several miles away.) In the final battle, he tries to shoot Wolf, but the crossbow is knocked upwards, and the shot goes through a skylight. He gains the advantage during the ensuing melee, meaning he's on top of Wolf when the bolt comes right back down... | |

Most spells in Dominions are projectiles with varying precision, but some have a precision of 100, meaning that they never miss. Some examples include: Soul Slay, which is instant death for characters that fail a saving roll. Incinerate, which has No Saving Throw, ignores armor, and deals enough damage to normally kill infantry in one shot unless they're fire resistant. However, it requires 3 levels in fire magic, which means any unit that can cast it is already a Person of Mass Destruction. Frozen Heart, which like Incinerate is an Armor-Piercing Attack with No Saving Throw, but only requires a single level in water magic to pull off (although the damage level is lower), making it a perfect candidate for a Spam Attack. |

Final Fantasy Tactics: There are a few Jobs that makes use of them, along with status effects ensuring them. The Squire's Dash/Rush ability has a Success Rate of 100%, and doesn't trigger offensive Reaction abilities (like the Monk's Counter), but it comes with the downside of dealing random damage that's determined by multiplying the user's Physical Attack with a number between 1 to 4. It's particularly useful against enemies that have high Evasion - like Thieves and Ninjas - and even more so if the user's Physical Attack was also repeatedly raised via Accumulate/Focus. The Archer's Support ability, Concentration, allows units to ignore their target's Evasion stat whenever they attack or use their abilities on them, although it won't always guarantee that they'll connect - Concentration doesn't actually affect the accuracy of it's users' attacks*The Base Success Rates of all attacks, spells, and abilities are essentially still the same even with Concentration equipped on a unit. If an enemy is put to Sleep or is Stopped, all attacks made against them are pretty much guaranteed, as the afflicted enemy in question won't be able to dodge them. And in one of the game's less fair moments, a pair of assassins have entirely unique instant kill abilities and a long-ranged, Stop-inducing move with 100% Success Rate, during an escort mission. |

In Dota 2, while normal projectiles and most spells can be disjoined by evasion or some other spell like teleportation, some spells can't be disjointed at all until it either hits the target, or at least the target's last location due to either disappearing off the map or dying. Note that in the latter case, the spell may reacquire its target when he respawns (usually through buybacks) before hitting his corpse. Some good examples of such spells are Skywrath Mage's Arcane Bolt and Lich's Chain Frost. | |

Archer has Hrunting, the sword of Beowulf, which he modified into an arrow. When used as a sword, it seeks the opponent's blood to find the optimal path to slash them. When fired as an arrow, it seeks the target's blood and it will continue to pursue the target, even if is parried, repulsed, or avoided, for as long as the shooter keeps aiming at them. The only way to avoid it is to break Archer's concentration or kill him before the arrow lands. | |

XCOM 2 Damaging psionic attacks like Soulfire, Null Lance and Volt will always hit, though certain non-damaging effects can be resisted, such as a mind control attempt only making the target panic or become disoriented. Like in Enemy Unknown, grenades and heavy weapons always hit the exact point you call out. ADVENT forces exploit this — ADVENT MECs won't even touch their gun until they exhaust their micro-missile launcher unless they get a flanking shot or from high ground. The Grenadier class skill "Hail of Bullets" will always hit, but it uses a whopping 3 ammo per shot when the default magazine size on their Cannons is 3, and it cannot crit under any circumstances. "Shadowfall" is a once-per-mission action with the Shadowkeeper pistol that never misses. If it's a kill shot, it'll also put the shooter in Concealment. |

Arc Angle has the player character's "weapon" which is twofold. Similar to the Free Range example from Thunder Force V (which inspired it), the player projects a conical area that can be aimed. Any enemy shots within the area will start being converted into holy bullets, although it takes time depending on the size/power of the cone. Once they turn into holy bullets, they home back in on the sender with perfect accuracy. | |

Phantom Doctrine: In this Turn-Based Tactics game, it is a core mechanic that every attack is always accurate, and this goes for the enemy as well as for you. There is one caveat: high enough awareness can let you dodge a bullet. That is, one bullet: if the weapon is a single shot weapon like a handgun or sniper rifle, you’re fine. If it’s a sub machine gun, assault rifle or light machine gun, you technically can dodge it, but you can’t get enough awareness to dodge all the bullets, so you’re taking quite a bit of damage. The proper balance between guaranteed damage, high damage and range is very important to manage. Also, you’re probably going to get shot a few times. | |

Lancer: The Ushabti Omnigun, which is built into and exclusive to the Pegasus frame, cannot miss, cannot be dodged, and its damage cannot be avoided or reduced in any way, the gun explicitly overriding all other rules in the system that would say otherwise. As a balancing act, the Omnigun fires only once per turn, and only deals Scratch Damage. Also, by the game's own rules it doesn't count as an 'attack' and therefore cannot trigger any of your talents, alternate ammo, or sources of bonus damage (like the Pegasus' hunter lock ability) — essentially, the Omnigun reduces one opponent's HP by one each turn and nothing else. This makes it amazing at shutting down mooks, but less so against anything else. It can be "unshackled" to assign 3 points of lost HP instead of one, which is still Scratch Damage but pretty good by being assured. How it manages to do this is unknown; the Ushabti is an incomprehensible piece of tech that comes with the frame and the best one can garner about how it works is that it's untouched by the rules of causality and rather than shoot you, the moment the pilot wills it the thing already shot you. | |

The Resistance series has the Bullseye weapon, where after tagging an enemy, all subsequent bullets will always hit it, even if it is behind covernote It is possible to avoid being hit by the seeking bullets, as they aren't smart enough to curve around cover and simply go to the tagged target in the most direct way. Savvy players will find ways around this restriction anyway. | |

The only way to avoid it is to break Archer's concentration or kill him before the arrow lands. Bazett Fraga McRemitz has Fragarach, a flying sword similar to Gae Bolg because it reverses time to always pierce the opponent's heart. However, it only has this effect if it is used as a Counter-Attack against the opponent's strongest attack. If it is used as a regular attack, it becomes an ordinary projectile. |

Fighting Fantasy's early days had gamebooks outside of the fantasy genre. In a few of those such as Freeway Fighter, you get a vehicle with rockets that automatically hit and kill their target. Even in a few of the fantasy-based books, your character might be able to find an explosive that they can lob at enemies and the explosion automatically hit. | |
