'''A Cut Above''' is a recurring skill in the series. The user focuses their fighting spirit, then delivers a furious multi-strike attack with their weapon.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ10}}===
A Cut Above can be learned by [[Gladiator]]s by investing 100 skill points into their Guts skill. It costs 8 MP to use and deals six attacks to a single enemy at 80~100% damage per hit.
* In the {{Offline}} version of the game, the {{Hero 10}} will learn A Cut Above as a Gladiator at level 50. When dual wielding weapons, the skill will attack 7 times. [[Hussar]] can learn the skill through the ''Cool'' panel in his character builder for 20 skill points when it expands in Version 2. 

==={{DQ11}}===
A Cut Above is a secret skill that can be learned by [[Hendrik]] through the ''Heroism'' panel in his character builder for 25 skill points, requiring at least four of the surrounding panels to be unlocked first. It costs 8 MP to use and can be used with any weapon equipped. It attacks a single enemy six times. The first five hits deal 40% damage, while the sixth deals 50% for a total of 250% damage. The hits are unavoidable and never miss.

==={{DQH}}===
A Cut Above is already known by [[Psaro (Character)|Psaro]] when he joins the party and costs 12 MP to use. He performs a rapid series of slashes six times with his greatsword, with the last two sending out shockwaves of dark magical energy with a long reach. It is a powerful technique when used in conjunction with Psaro's [[Liberation]] skill.
{{Descriptions

}}

==={{DQH2}}===
A Cut Above can be learned by [[Lazarel]] and [[Teresa]] as [[Gladiator]]s by spending 8 skill points after reaching rank 15 in Twin Sword Proficiency or higher, while [[Psaro (Character)|Psaro]] once again knows the skill by default. It now costs 18 MP to use.

The Gladiator's version of the skill slashes four times with a pair of giant swords infused with magical energy. It is a powerful technique, but is performed slower than Psaro's version.

==Trivia==
* The skill's Japanese name, Tenka Musō (天下無双), is originally a Chinese idiom which literally means "without another one in the entire world".
* In English, a [[Wiktionary:cut above|cut above]] is an idiom which refers to someone or something that is superior to the norm.
