Sargon can use Athra Surges in battle by filling up his Athra meter, which can be found in the bottom right of the screen and built up by striking adversaries or parrying their strikes. Each of these powers has several levels that consume varying amounts of the bar; for example, the more effective the Surge attack is, the more bar it will consume.

Here are some of the best Athra abilities to make your adventure throughout Mount Qaf easier.

• Bahamut's Rage: Deals massive damage in a big AoE (area of effect). This is particularly useful against mobs of enemies or to effectively reduce a boss's HP bar.
• Bahman's Breath: This Surge is a defensive spell as it casts a small zone that heals you and pushes back nearby enemies.
• Wind of Sistan: Deals high AoE (area of effect damage) and keeps enemies stunned as long as the surge is active. Effective against large mobs of enemies.
• Haryadhana's Might: Sargon teleports above the enemies and deals massive AoE (area of effect) damage. Effective against large groups of enemies.
• Soul of Gilgamesh: Buffs Sargon's offensive power by increasing various stats temporarily. It also gives him a temporary defense boost that decreases melee damage taken from enemies.

Each Athra Surge in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown can be obtained by defeating the various bosses that Sargon will encounter throughout the game. These foes can be challenging, and you must be very careful while dealing with them.
