Braver is a returning class in Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis that is proficient in both close range and long ranged combat. While the moves are simple, they have hidden depth to them.

Class Weapon Overview

Katana

Katana is a melee weapon that can attack with agile movements. With their innate ability "Katana PA Combo", their Photon Arts grow stronger and have different stages based on the number of times they have been used repeatedly in succession. Katanas also feature a guard Weapon Action that negates all damage when a guard parry against an attack is successful.

Bullet Bow

Bullet Bow is a ranged weapon that can deal stable damage from a long distance, and has Photon Arts that change depending on if they were held down and charged or not. Bullet Bows feature Normal Attacks and some Photon Arts that can be performed while moving.

An indicator will appear when 5s is left. Cooldown of 120s. Active Skill/Braver Weapons only.
