Grand Cross retains its Japanese name in most localisations and is [[Hyunckel]]'s most powerful, but also most dangerous technique - using a cross-shaped object as a medium, he can convert his own life force into an extremely destructive blast of Holy Aura.

Pearly Gates functions identically as before, and is learned by mastering the Paladin and [[Black bishop (vocation)|Black bishop]] vocations, along with rank 3 of the [[Champion]] in the {{3DS}} version. [[Sir Mervyn]] will display a unique animation when performing the technique in the remake.

[[Rab]] will master Pearly Gates just before rejoining the party near the beginning of Act 2. Pearly Gates deals great wind damage to all enemies, at 135~165 base and 265~295 cap when Rab's {{Strength}} reaches 200. In addition to dealing the usual extra damage to the {{Undead}}, Pearly Gates also has a 20% chance to lower [[Zap]] resistance one stage. The reason for this new trait, outside of battle utility, is likely due to Rab's mission of supporting the {{Luminary}}.

*Pearly Gates returns to being a cross-shaped attack as before, but the animation for the skill is now tilted to more resemble an X than a Greek cross, and is also aimed at the battleground itself instead of the enemies to further mask the holy implication.
