Features of Assault Rifle

Photon Arts

Razing Shot

Icon Name Stat Lv.1
UINGSPhotonArtRazingShot.png Razing Shot Power 180
PP 16
Description
Assault Rifle Photon Art.
Fire shells that explode on impact with the enemy.
The shells spiral and penetrate targets by charging.
  • Shoot two explosive shells uncharged, and a piercing explosive shell charged.
  • Piercing shell decreases in damage the more it pierces a single enemy and explodes for every pierce. Has slower projectile speed compared to uncharged.
    • Most effective to use uncharged on lighter enemies (Bujin, Kelkundo, Ams Kvaris, etc.), and charged on heavier enemies (Daityl-types, Crocodylis, Doldoris, etc.). More specifically, charged is better than uncharged if you can pierce an enemy three or more times.
  • You can walk and jump while using this PA.
  • Can be canceled while charging with Step or Weapon Action.
  • Power Notation: When uncharged, each shell deals 70% + 3% (explosion) of noted power, and when charged, the first pierce is 97% + 3%, second 50% + 3%, third 30% + 3%, fourth 12% + 3%, and fifth onwards 6% + 3%.


Homing Darts

Icon Name Stat Lv.1
UINGSPhotonArtHomingDarts.png Homing Darts Power 330
PP 24
Description
Assault Rifle Photon Art.
Fire special bullets that track multiple enemies in your field of view by charging.
  • Fire bullets that track and home in on enemies in your view.
    • Targets up to 10 enemies.
  • Most effective with groups of enemies. Without lock-on, you can spin around to target enemies.
  • Can be used against larger enemies with more hitboxes, but decreases in damage for each bullet tracked.
  • Other enemies can block bullets meant for targeted enemies.
  • You can move while tracking enemies, and you will move in the direction you are inputting after firing the bullets.
  • Power Notation: Deals 100% of noted power per enemy. If the bullets home on one single enemy, damage decreases by roughly x0.4 per bullet (100%, 40%, 16%, 6%, 2% onwards).


Blaze Shot

Icon Name Stat Lv.1
UINGSPhotonArtBlazeShot.png Blaze Shot Power 285
PP 20
Description
Assault Rifle Photon Art.
Fire high-speed volley after a dodge.
By pressing and holding down on the PA button, it will continue to fire until PP is depleted.
  • Perform a dodge and hold the PA button to continuously shoot the enemy until you run out of PP, then shoot a strong bullet.
    • -PP consumption only affects the initial use of the PA.
  • The strong bullet makes up much of the damage this PA deals.
  • The dodge can be useful as a quick reposition, but Weapon Action can provide similar utility.
  • You can only move left or right during this PA, and if used in the air, you will slowly descend.
  • Has poor accuracy against enemies in the air.
  • Provides invincibility at the start of the dodge to when you point the rifle at the enemy, and also at the end of the PA.
  • Power Notation: Each bullet deals 10% of noted power, while the strong bullet deals 110%.


Revolt Aim

Icon Name Stat Lv.1
UINGSPhotonArtRevoltAim.png Revolt Aim Power 660
PP 25
Description
Assault Rifle Photon Art.
Powerfully bombard a location.
The location will be displayed while pressing and holding the button. Release to launch the attack.
  • Shoot bullets that explode at a certain distance and in a small radius. Holding the PA button shows you the distance and radius.
  • Most effective to use against downed enemies, and against enemies where Razing Shot does not pierce more than three times. Revolt Aim's small radius can also precisely hit weak points.
  • Will fail to fire if there is a "hard" obstacle (like walls) in the way.
  • You can move and jump while holding the PA button, but you will stay in place while shooting the bullets.
  • Can be canceled while holding the PA button or before firing the bullets with Step or Weapon Action.
  • Power Notation: Deals 20% x 5 hits of noted power.
