Dual Blades Photon Arts

From Arks-Visiphone
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Overview

  • Similar to Double Saber PAs, Dual Blades Arts specialize in racking up staggering amounts of damage with individually weak hits.
  • Specialize in aerial combat, making Shifta Air Attack Boost extremely viable.
  • Very committal compared to most weapons; many Arts cannot be cancelled out of without the use of Weapon Action.
  • Quite a few Arts give super armor while being performed; combined with the aforementioned limitations in cancelling, Dual Blades Arts tend to be fairly risky due to the potential to eat multiple hits while attacking and being unable to cancel. However, this also means they can sustain DPS without being interrupted.

  • Does a somersault, then slowly moves forwards in the air while shooting photon blades all around you in a wide area.
    • Maintains altitude if used in the air.

  • The photon blades animations are just for show. The PA actually hits everything inside the circular aoe at the same time.
  • Area of effect is fairly long both vertically and horizontally.
  • All hits are considered to be aerial, even if the PA is used on the ground. As such, skills and potentials that require air time, such as Shifta Air and Potential.png Divine Radiance work with the whole PA even if used in the ground.
  • Immunity to flinch throughout the entire animation
  • Main mobbing PA of dual blades.
  • Does 9 hits. Each hit does 11.5% of noted power.
    • Gear increases the power of each hit to 11.7% at 1/3, 12.1% at gear 2/3, and 13.4% at maximum gear.
    • Because it does so many hits on a wide area, it fills up gear extremely fast.

  • Generates 12 photon blades around you, then explodes them and throws them upwards while jumping high in the air.
    • Each photon blade only hits what it touches, so it's hard to hit all of them in a single target, as they are separated from each other.
    • Jumping height is about the same as a double jump from Jet Boots.
  • Does not maintain altitude when used in the air.
  • Has iframes starting when the photon blades are generated, until the end of the jump.
  • It is possible to generate gear even when hitting objects, such as the bases in Mining Base Defense Emergency Quests.
  • Does 12 hits.
    • Each blade does 7.5% of the noted power, increased to 7.8% at 1/3 gear, 8.3% at 2/3 gear, and 9% at maximum gear, for a total of 90/93.6/99.6/108%.
    • The jumping explosion does 10% of the noted power, increased to 10.5% at 1/3 gear, 11% at 2/3 gear, and 12% at maximum gear.

  • Continuously slashes forwards, then finishes with a rain of photon blades.
    • The slashes have very small range, but the rain hits the target wherever it is, with a very long range limit.
    • The rain does not track enemies. Once it starts, it will fall in that area until it ends, so fast moving targets may evade it.
  • Moves forwards slowly while slashing, even when used in the air.
    • Maintains altitude when used in the air.
  • The JA ring appears as soon as the photon blade rain starts, and the rain will not cancel if another attack is done before it ends.
  • Cannot be cancelled by Mirage Step, but can be cancelled by Weapon Action.
    • If it is cancelled before the rain starts, it will not start at all.
  • Although the damage is high, dps is low due to the slow animation.
  • Does 19 slashes, then 6 hits with the photon blade rain.
    • Each hit does 4% of the noted power, increased to 5% at 2/3 gear or higher, for a total of 100/125%.

Boosting Potential - Weapons with PA 9 Kasentori Haruka, 12 Rig Touren
  • Generates photon blades above and drops them in a small range forwards.
    • Blades can hit multiple times while going downwards, similarly to Fall Nocturne.
  • The range is about 2 Steps worth of distance, but is very narrow.
  • When used in the ground, does 1 hit while the blades go upwards, and another hit when they come down. When used in the air, does only 1 hit when dropping the blades, and forces an immediate loss of altitude.
    • On the ground, the upward strike does 30% of the noted power, and the downward strike does 70%. Increases to 35%/70% at 1/3 gear, 35%/75% at 2/3 gear, and 40%/80% at maximum gear.
    • In the air, does 100% of the noted power in 1 hit. Increases to 105% at gear 1/3, 110% at gear 2/3, and 120% at maximum gear.
