Revision as of 01:02, 10 March 2023

In some Quests in NGS, you occasionally have access to Special Weapons. These are time-limited armaments that give you access to special attacks and moves.

Special Weapons can be equipped via a Delivery Device. Depending on the Quest, there may be limitations on their use, such as a limited number of uses per quest, or a requirement to earn enough Quest Points before you can summon a Special Weapon.

While a Special Weapon is in use, your main palette and subpalette are automatically replaced with a dedicated set of palettes, which you cannot modify in any way. However, the main palette weapon you have equipped still matters, as it is still considered that you have equipped your weapon and all of the stats from your class and weapon apply in Damage Calculation. Potentials and Class Skills will not activate while the Special Weapon in use. Using an empty weapon palette while having a Special Weapon equipped will make all attacks deal 1 damage.

Unlike Boarding Weapons from the base game, having a Special Weapon will not protect you from death. If your HP reaches 0, you will be incapacitated as usual, and you will lose the Special Weapon. In addition, most Character Skills cannot be used.

All Special Weapon attacks have a base PA Power of 100. However, every attack has its own unique multiplier on top of that. The numbers referred to in the tables below take these multipliers into account. In addition, they affect ALL Damage types, regardless of the icons or seeming damage type. They also deal Physical Down buildup to enemies.

Weapon Types

There are 3 Special Weapon types, each with distinct properties, behaviors and quests you can use them at.

Mobile Cannon

Mobile Cannon is an offensive Special Weapon, with a rapid rate of fire designed to deal with large swathes of enemies. However, it has low movement speed and relies on its thrusters for quick travel. Note that having a weapon equipped that has an Attribute will not apply the +10/15% damage multiplier from having an Attribute. Each Mobile Cannon can be used for up to 90 seconds before automatically unequipping.

While equipped with Mobile Cannon, you cannot use Reverser Signs. This means reviving people is impossible. Resta Signs are available at Sub-Palette Position 1 and work as normal.

While cannon is in use, you get an extra damage multiplier depending on your main class level:

Main Class Level Damage Multiplier
1-20 1.4x
21-30 1.5x
31-40 1.6x
41-50 1.9x
51-60 2.0x
61-70 2.2x

Mobile Cannon Skills

Here are the skills that a Mobile Cannon has to offer:

Mobile Cannon M2

Mobile Cannon M2 is the upgraded version of the regular cannon, with faster movement, better dashing and far more powerful attacks. Each Mobile Cannon M2 can be used for up to 60 seconds before automatically unequipping.

While mechanically similar to the original cannon, it has the following differences:

  1. Reverser Signs are available from Subpalette Position 2 (Resta Signs are in Subpalette Position 1).
  2. Mobile Cannon M2 will apply the Attribute Weapon damage buff of +10%/+15%
  3. Mobile Cannon M2 has a natural 30% Damage Resistance.
  4. Class Skills increasing PP Recovery do apply to Mobile Cannon M2.
  5. Rapid Fire skill power has been reduced.

Floating Board

Floating Board is a mobility-type Special Weapon. Rather than dealing damage, this Special Weapon is designed for fast traversal across the world. They can be summoned from Board Terminals as well as from Delivery Devices. You may also be forced to board them as a part of an activity, such as Field Race. Floating Board's speed is affected by gravity, so it will go faster downhill and slower uphill. Each Floating Board can be used for up to 60 seconds, but passing through a Dash Ring will reset the timer.

The primary way of dealing damage with a Floating Board is to directly impact enemies with a board. The damage dealt will be based on your current speed.

There are 4 speeds of Floating Board:

  • Low Speed, indicated by a red dot on the engine.
  • Medium Speed, indicated by a blue dot on the engine.
  • High Speed, indicated by a steam of blue energy coming from the engine.
  • Dash Boosted, indicated by a red aura along with stream of blue energy.

Those speeds have allotted PA Power numbers attached to them, with higher speeds being more powerful. Therefore, maintain high speed as much as possible to deal as much damage as possible. Floating Boards can destroy Frozen Containers on impact.

Floating Board Gimmicks

There are 2 special gimmicks with the Floating Board.

  • Orange Dash Rings: Enter a special Dash Boosted state for 5 seconds, which increases damage to maximum. Resets your remaining Floating Board time to 60 seconds.
  • Orange Jump Pads: Once you press the jump button or reach the end of the pad, you will have a boosted jump. However, be careful as you lose control over the Floating Board while you're in mid jump.

Floating Board Skills

Floating Board can use following skills:

Icon Skill Name Palette Position Notes
NGSUISkill Floating Board Photon Brake.png
 Photon Brake Main Palette Action 1,

Shift + Action 1-3

Slows down the Floating Board, allowing for easier turns.

Will not slow you down if you are under the effects of Photon Thruster or Dash Ring, but will keep the sharp turning.

NGSUISkill Floating Board Photon Thruster.png
 Photon Thruster Main Palette Action 2 Can hold up to 2 stacks

Forces Floating Board to travel at High Speed or above for 5 seconds.

15 second cooldown. Damaging enemies with the board reduces cooldown by 2 seconds

None Body Blow Touch an enemy A melee strike dealt to enemies on contact. PA Power is dependent on Speed:
  • Low Speed = 200 PA Power
