Hello, simple user page for now. I often use this wiki and see missing information every so often, so I decided to step in to help out during my free time. Please let me know if you have any concerns about my editing; I've edited on Fandom/Wikia before so I will not be surprised or offended by any edits you may make to my own.

Played a little PSO2 JP in 2018 and stopped until Global came out in 2020, and I've continuing playing ever since. I've played and maxed all of the classes in PSO2 and NGS, but I mostly know what I'm doing for all of NGS's classes, so I have some reasonable knowledge about them. I'm on Global's Ship 2, as catetaro. On Discord, you can find me on the Fleet and Official servers as cate#4502.

Thanks for reading!

Priority List

At the moment, I'm adding details to the PA pages. Even though I take details from the Swiki, I make sure to verify things in-game, as I've already encountered some lost-in-translation specifics using DeepL. Thank you very much for your time Engouku and Frozen Yellow Containers.

  1. (Done) Creating Photon Art pages for each weapon.
  2. (Done) Rename PA pages to fit NGS page name schemes and for accuracy (New Genesis Swords Photon Arts -> Portal:New Genesis/Sword Photon Arts and Actions)
  3. (Done) Including additional information to each weapon's PA (guard, inv. frames, PA cancel opportunities, any extra quirks)
  4. (Done) Updating NGSEquipment template to properly link respective weapons' PA pages.
  5. (WIP) Weapon Action, Normal Attacks, and Photon Blast info on PA pages
  6. Creating Technique pages for each type of technique.
  7. Additional information for techniques.
  8. Dark Falz Aegis/Battle of Halphia Lake strategy and attack patterns.

Test stuff


Overview

The Fighter's Knuckles focuses on dealing massive damage through its Sway Weapon Action, possessing one of the strongest counterattacks amongst all weapons.

As one may assume, Knuckles have the shortest range of all weapons.

Fighter's weapon PAs are split into two halves, and learning Fighter Skip Arts allows you to use the first half by inputting a directional key, or to instead skip to the second half by not inputting.
For Knuckles PAs, halves tend to vary in their use, but its second halves deal more damage than the first halves overall.

Features of Knuckles

Normal Attacks

Icon Stat NA1 NA2 NA3 NA4 NA5 Alt.
NGSUINormalAttackKnuckles.png Power 55 x 2 95 95 100 70 x 3 + 100 175
PP Recovery 2 x 2 4 4 12 1 x 3 + 3 3

Punch the enemy with Knuckles using 3 Normal Attacks. Knuckle Attack Extra adds the 4th and 5th NA. Knuckle Attack Alternation provides an alternative 5th NA that is faster than the original, sacrificing total damage and PP. Same Arts Skip Attack - Fighter and Another Arts Skip - Fighter allows you to skip to the 4th and 5th NAs after using a PA twice or two different PAs, respectively. Normal Attacks

  • All NAs move you forward, but gradually increase in distance

Alternation

  • A faster version of NA5 that can be performed by not pressing an input during NA5.
  • Sacrifices some damage and PP compared to NA5, but is most effective when you're expecting an enemy to move away from you, or to fit in an extra counter that the normal NA5 might've blocked from its autoguard.

Weapon Action

Icon Stat Parry Counter Another Counter Deadly Archer
NGSUIWeaponActionTwinDaggers.png Power 125 x 3 500 140 x 9 + 168 x 2
PP Recovery 4 x 3 7 0

Spin to guard yourself from all directions. Skills in the Fighter tree provides 2 different counters to use after guarding an attack, as well as access to a special attack, Deadly Archer.

Parry Counter

  • Allows you to counter with an NA input after a successful guard.
  • You can move roughly 2 Steps in any direction using the respective movement input as you counter.
  • Versus Another Counter, it provides better PP recovery and Whirlwind build-up value, but deals less damage, shorter gap-close, and less invincibility time; less invincibility however makes it better for multiple attacks.

Another Counter

  • Allows you to use an alternate counter with a Weapon Action input after a successful guard.
  • Versus Parry Counter, it provides higher damage, a further gap-close, and longer invincibility time, but has worse PP recovery and very poor Whirlwind build-up value.

Deadly Archer

  • Hold down the Weapon Action input to consume all Whirlwind to enhance your Double Saber, then toss it, where it spins rapidly to attack the enemy.
  • Has a relatively long startup time, and you will remain in place while performing the attack.
  • If you plan to fully consume your Whirlwind with WW3, consider using Spiral Drive first before using Deadly Archer.
  • You are invincible during its animation.


Universal Actions

Action Power PP Recovery
Step Attack 80 + 80 4 + 4
Step Counter 190 + 190 9 + 9
Dash Attack 280 15
Dive Attack 200 0
  • Step Attack/Counter: After a Step, press Normal Attack to spin the Double Saber and hit the enemy twice. If you dodge an enemy's attack with Step, the damage is increased and you instead perform a diagonal slash that hits the enemy twice.
  • Dash Attack: Swing the Double Saber in front of you.
  • Dive Attack: Nearly the same across all weapons. Dive deals damage to nearby enemies and restores no PP, and is mainly used to reach the ground faster.

Photon Blast

Focus photons into your Double Saber to perform multiple slashes, following up with rising spin slashes, then finishing off with an explosive slam that summons a tornado.

  • A relatively long Photon Blast that deals an average amount of damage for a Photon Blast alone, but has its damage greatly increased with Whirlwind active.
    • From no Whirlwind build-up, the Photon Blast will generate enough Whirlwind for WW2. With WW2, it will generate enough for WW3.
  • You can move relatively quickly in any direction until you perform the slam. The Photon Blast moves you upward, but returns you to your original position with the slam.
    • Consider activating the Photon Blast somewhat lower than the part you intend to hit.
  • Like all Photon Blasts, you are invincible during its animation.
  • Power Notation: Measured in Power, deals 180 x 3 hits (slashes), 120 x 9 hits (rising spin slashes), 1560 (explosive slam), then 144 x 5 hits (tornado).
