The Fighter Fighter (ファイター, "Fi") class is a specialized melee class that focuses solely on raw power. It is capable of wielding extremely strong, but difficult to use Striking-based weaponry and is coupled with a Skill Tree that grants extremely powerful boons for landing Critical Hits and playing dangerously, making Fighters incredible powerhouses that live on the edge.

Reaching Level 75 on this class will give the following bonuses to the base stats of all classes and all characters of the same account: PP +2, S-ATK+50, T-ATK+15, T-DEF+10.

Class Weapon Overview

Fighters use the Twin Daggers Twin Dagger, Double Saber Double Saber, and Knuckles Knuckles and Gunslash Gunslash weapon types.

Twin Daggers

Short-range daggers that excel at aerial combat. Capable of extremely fast attacks with multiple hits, and multiple PAs that allow maneuvering in all directions, both horizontally and vertically. Twin Dagger attacks and PAs also have very brief frontal Just Guard frames, allowing continuous offensive play if timed right. However, because PAs are so fast, it tends to also consume PP much faster than most other weapons. Twin Daggers can be powered up with the Skill Twin Daggers Gear, which grants them a damage bonus for staying airborne and performing multiple midair "jumps".

Twin Daggers' Weapon Action is Spin. Pressing the Weapon Action button will cause the player to spin in the air. This counts as a jump for Twin Daggers Gear, deals minor damage at point-blank range, and blocks attacks with Just Guard frames.

Double Sabers

Short-range bladed weapons that are capable of dishing out a multitude of hits in a single combo. Double Saber PAs generally have multiple hits (but slower than Twin Daggers), and are capable of drawing enemies nearby with aoe attacks. Gear management is a very important part of using Double Sabers. Generally regarded as mobbing weapons for a long time, the addition of the Skill Ring L/DS Whirlwind allows Double Sabers to become an extremely effective boss killer in addition to its mobbing capabilities. Double Sabers can be powered up with the Skill Double Saber Gear to execute their Weapon Action.

Double Saber's Weapon Action is Kamaitachi. When activated with the Weapon Action button, the wielder flourishes the weapon in the air. When used in tandem with Double Saber Gear, using it while at least one Gear Level is stocked will deplete your Gear Gauge and summon a whirlwind around you that deals repeated damage to enemies close to you. This whirlwind can be stacked up to two times. The more Gear is consumed upon activation, the more damage the whirlwind deals and the longer the duration.

Knuckles

A twin pair of weaponized gauntlets. Knuckles possess notoriously short range, but exceed even Swords in power to compensate. Their Photon Arts can hit extremely hard if given the opportunity, and are a powerful weapon when engaging a target one-on-one. Knuckles can be powered up with the Skill Knuckles Gear, which grants its user a power boost as long as the user continues a combo.

Knuckles' Weapon Action is Sway. Pressing the Weapon Action button will cause the wielder to swiftly duck in place. This gives brief invulnerability and does not break combos for the purpose of Tech Arts and Knuckles Gear.

Gunslash

These are universal weapons for all classes, which can switch between striking attacks that scale off of S-ATK S-Atk and shooting attacks that scale off of R-ATK R-Atk.

Tech Arts JA Bonus

Increases damage when chaining together successive different PAs or Techniques via Just Attack.

Notes:

  • Any type of combination between Techs and PAs work:
    • PA -> PA
    • Tech -> Tech
    • PA -> Tech
    • Tech -> PA
  • Using regular attacks between PAs will not interrupt the combo.
  • Missing JA timings will not interrupt the combo, but won't update the previous JA'd PA/Tech either. For example:
    • Will work: JA Heartless Impact -> non-JA Ducking Blow -> JA Backhand Smash -> JA Heartless Impact. Only Ducking Blow won't benefit (as it wasn't a JA)
    • Won't work: JA Heartless Impact -> non-JA Ducking Blow -> JA Heartless Impact. Heartless Impact is still the previous JA'd PA, so it won't work.

Weapon Related Skills

Double Saber Gear

Hitting enemies with basic attacks or PAs will generate Gear. The more hits, the faster it fills.

Performing a Weapon Action will spend all Gear and generate a whirlwind around you that damages nearby enemies. The higher the gear, the more damage and wider the aoe. Requires at least 1/3 Gear to generate a whirlwind. The whirlwind hits themselves generate more gear, and you can have up to 2 whirlwinds up at the same time. Whirlwinds benefit from Just Attacks and status effects chances on your weapon.

Note: The Skill Ring L/DS Whirlwind allows you to activate the whirlwinds after using any PA (except for Chaos Riser and Hurricane Sender) without spending any gear.

Icon Skill Name Prerequisite Number of hits Damage per hit
1/3 Gear 2/3 Gear Full Gear
DoubleSaberGearIcon.png Double Saber Gear S-ATK Boost 1 Lv1 8 hits 55% 82.5% 110%

Double Saber Wind Parry

Allows Just Guard frames when activating Double Saber Gear. Requires at least 1/3 Gear to activate.

Icon Skill Name Prerequisite
DoubleSaberWindParryIcon.png Double Saber Wind Parry Double Saber Gear Lv1

Twin Dagger Gear

Performing a Weapon Action while in the air, or using specific PAs will generate gear. There are 3 Gear levels. If you touch the ground, the Gear is reset.

Increases the damage of all attacks and PAs based on Gear level.

The following PAs generate Gear:

  • Gear Level +1:
    • Raging Waltz
    • Shoot Polka
    • Scar Fugue
    • Symphonic Drive
    • Facet Folia (only if the first hit connects)
  • Gear Level +2:
    • Quick March

TwinDaggerGearIcon.png Twin Dagger Gear S-ATK Boost 1 Lv1 100% 120% 150%

Twin Dagger Spin Move

Allows you to move horizontally while performing the Weapon Action. Distance covered is small (about half the distance of Step), and it does not change the direction you are facing.

Icon Skill Name Prerequisite
TwinDaggerSpinMoveIcon.png Twin Dagger Spin Move Twin Dagger Gear Lv1

Knuckle Gear

Performing any attack or PA will generate Gear (even if no hits connect on an enemy). There are 3 Gear levels. Each Gear level raises the attack speed of all attacks and PAs. When the Gear is maxed, it also raises the damage of specific PAs (such as Backhand Smash and Surprise Knuckle). Gear resets if you stop attacking or if you jump.

Performing a Weapon Action or Step won't generate gear, but will prevent it from reseting. Additionally, performing Weapon Action multiple times in a row will prevent it from reseting, but performing Step multiple times in a row will not (this can be avoided by using Step Attack after every Step).

Stance Related Skills

Brave Stance

A stance in which you deal increased damage while in front of an enemy. Decreases damage done while behind an enemy when below Lv5, and increases when above Lv5. Cannot be activated at the same time as Wise Stance.

Notes:

  • Being in front or behind an enemy is defined by the enemy's total body, not the part you're targeting. So, for example, hitting the weakspot behind the neck of a Dark Ragne will benefit from Brave Stance, despite you being behind the neck, because you are on the front half of its body.
  • Some enemies consider the battlefield as their body. Such enemies will benefit from Brave/Wise Stance based on where you are located in the battlefield. For example:
    • Dark Falz Elder considers the entire battlefield as its body, meaning Wise Stance will work at all times, as his body is always on the back part of the arena.
    • Big Vardha's body can be walked on. Whenever you hit a part of it, the Stance that works will be based on where in its body you are located. So hitting the missile launchers on the back will always benefit from Wise Stance, while the laser cannons on the front will always benefit from Brave Stance. The core moves through its body, so it depends on where you are at the moment.
