The [[Portal:New_Genesis/Braver|Braver's]] Katana possesses 3 stage PAs that can be performed by using PAs in succession, providing flexibility in battle. Its attacks overall are quick, has slightly higher range than other melee weapons, and has multiple counterattack options that can be learned to safely deal damage. Additional skills in Braver's tree such as '''Katana Perfect Guard PP Gain''' and '''Brave Spirit''' provides PP sustain and increased counter damage.
 +
 +
The Katana tends to quickly consume PP due to its fast, 3 stage PAs. Using and unlocking skills in Braver's tree can mitigate this, but still requires the user to be aggressive with their counters and use of '''Brave Combat''' to mainly restore PP while on the offensive.

'''Normal Attacks'''
 +
* Deals nearly the same amount of damage, and same PP recovery in its NA chain.
 +
* Moves you forward on the ground towards the enemy. You can move in the air slightly horizontally, except backwards; attacking continuously will allow you to stay in the air.
 +
* Learning '''Fearless Attitude''' generates a short auto-guard in all directions (visualized with a blue shield) after each NA.
 +
* '''Brave Combat Close Range''' increases the distance you move towards the enemy and allows you to move vertically during Brave Combat.

* '''Brave Spirit''' increases the damage and PP recovery of NAs while active.

Guard from all directions with the Katana. Holding the Weapon Action button allows you to continuously guard attacks, reducing incoming damage by 75% and consuming 20 PP; '''Mighty Guard''' instead reduces incoming damage by 90% and consumes 10 PP. Guarding a second before an attack allows you to negate all damage and consumes no PP.
 +
Skills in the Braver tree unlocks and enhances counterattacking after guarding a second before an attack, and also provides additional counterattacks.
 +
 +
'''Katana Guard Counter'''
 +
* Automatically counterattack in front of you after guarding an attack.
 +
** A successful guard and the following counterattack provides invincibility during the motion.
 +
 +
'''Counter Advanced'''
 +
* Adds a medium-ranged shockwave to Katana Guard Counter.
 +
 +
'''Fearless Attitude'''
 +
* A counter not exclusively a Weapon Action-related skill.
 +
* Generates an auto-guard around you if you stand still after certain actions (NAs, PAs, sidestep attack). Guarding an attack this way automatically performs a counterattack that deals more damage than other counterattacks, restores a high amount of PP (60), and provides brief invincibility during the counterattack.
 +
** NAs and sidestep attack has the shortest duration (0.6 seconds), followed by stage 1 and 2 of PAs (0.75), and stage 3 PAs having the longest duration (1.3).
 +
* You will stay in the air as long as Fearless Attitude is active.
 +
 +
'''Counter Plus'''
 +
* Performs 3 medium-ranged attacks after a guard counter by pressing the Normal Attack button.
 +
* Not affected by Brave Spirit.
 +
* You are invincible during the counterattacks.
 +
* Can be followed up with another guard counter at the end of the last slash.

Overview

The Braver's Katana possesses 3 stage PAs that can be performed by using PAs in succession, providing flexibility in battle. Its attacks overall are quick, has slightly higher range than other melee weapons, and has multiple counterattack options that can be learned to safely deal damage. Additional skills in Braver's tree such as Katana Perfect Guard PP Gain and Brave Spirit provides PP sustain and increased counter damage.

The Katana tends to quickly consume PP due to its fast, 3 stage PAs. Using and unlocking skills in Braver's tree can mitigate this, but still requires the user to be aggressive with their counters and use of Brave Combat to mainly restore PP while on the offensive.
