New Players Guide to Knuckles | PSO2:NGS

[@MasterMkp]

Knuckles are the only weapon that I feel i must have weapon stealthing on always to recreate the full martial artist vibe. If jet boots makes a return to bouncer, you know for sure i'll have to multiweapon it with knuckles!

[@sinistergamer2396]

Just started playing PSO2, knuckle fighter is by far the best martial arts based class I've played I most RPGs! Awesome video, very helpful

[@ArgonPSO]

Something interesting of note for the stored 5th attack; It doesn't just get stored, it replaces the next normal that you do without breaking a combo string. If you use same arts skip, it will replace normal 3, so your combo would be something like double drive > double drive > a5 > a4 > a5. It makes the combo stronger, and a bit better at regening PP. If you use another arts skip, your combo would be something like double drive > swift rush > a5 > a5 for big burst damage. All the different combos really make knuckles fun.

Watch out boys! It's Knuckle Fuck time!

Kill a Daityl Sword with a thousand blows to the groin.

Knuckles' shoryuken is not a full start and mid flight are just super armor peak height is the .

[@patrickgrady7505]

Sometimes its hard to tell because I remember doing it by accident when Nex dragon did it's one shot meteor attack and took no damage.

[@rijinn727]

@@patrickgrady7505 yup but mostly, if you try it on bujin youll notice where the is.

[@jasonmendoza2044]

It’s awesome cause I made my first character to look like Ken from street fighter w out even knowing about that move or that there was a fighter class at all. It’s very satisfying lol

[@Zenovii-senpai]

See me with multi weapon knuckles and jet boots when bouncer comes out.

[@xCr0nus]

Been maining knuckles primarily because of how rewarded you are for well-timed counters compared to other classes.

[@TheKsenpai]

uppercut doesn't give you i-frames, it just gives you super armor, meaning you can't get knocked back or interrupted. You still take full damage though. Which is why i don't use it unless the boss is downed. You open yourself up for damage, also the explosion fist, has a really short i-frame duration on the explosion, so basically don't rely on i-frames from pa's, use the weapon action or just dodge. Also PB is probably one of the better ones since it's fast and does a chunk of damage really quickly, so you pop it and you can continue dishing out damage with pa's, while other pb's take longer to fully play out(and sometimes if you time poorly boss can leave the pb area and you'll lose a good chunk of that pb damage cause of that)

How can I get knuckles camos without going to base Pso2?

[@psychoreactive]

I'm not an expert by any means but I like double weapon action counter - I took off the 5th normal after counter (I think before it was bugged but now it's fixed?) and I spam the life out of shoryuken on downed bosses weak points. I can't give up the 500 - 1300 damage a hit. I took the double weapon action counter because you have s from the sway to until the end of the 2nd hit.

[@dennisl9176]

Looking at the frame data dps spreadsheet, knuckles PB is pretty good only slightly weaker than TD due to the impact frames. DS has the weakest PB by a big margin

[@dennisl9176]

@@reis3542 that's not necessarily true but even going off that criteria it would be knuckles strongest and TD weakest, unless the info on the spreadsheet is wrong

[@yuanqi1029]

hey can we have a DPS/DPP comparison between below two combo: Double drive second--Double drive second--N3 N4 N5 VS Swift rush second--Double drive second--N4 N5

[@blackpsychotigertells2827]

Try a knuckle sword multiweapon. Its really a jack of all trades feel.

[@DaichiTheBrawler]

What's the name of the red n black skin you have on your knuckles? I played PSO2 on the vita so many years ago and I had the skin. (Game was in Japanese) Finally being able to play it again I'm trying to get back all the cool stuff I had

[@anthonypittman6443]

Honestly for me knuckles are gonna be go to weapon until boots come out, and then add them together. Ora till the end fighter mains

[@pwnomega4562]

i like my pso2 knuckles fighter better, i think compared to pso2 they made the class clunky and the skills dont combo seamlessly with one another... idk i could just suck with this new version of knuckles fighter but i hate it, it hate it just like they did jetboots bouncer which was another one of my favorites in pso2, they honestly added weird twists to the class that have weird learning curves and mechanics. the only thing that is the same and still is good is the sway.

[@KronoKatastrophy]

idk im kind of on the opposite side. JBs feels way better to play in NGS vs the Vinto spam from base and new knuckles felt off at first but eventually got super comfy. The counter is also faaaar better then it was in base. But thats all my opinion ya know. I wasnt really a knuckle main in base so it might just be my casual ass lol

[@patrickgrady7505]

I admit that I miss Heartless Impact and Pendulum Combo aka Dempsey Roll from original PSO2. You can kinda travel with Double Drive but the distance is hella short. Not like Heartless Impact where you kinda fly further.

[@Sgt_RED]

how are you dealing so much dmg per hit. i maybe get a third of your dmg per hit if not even less

[@carolthepyro899]

Augments most likely

[@Sgt_RED]

@@carolthepyro899 nah this cant be it. they dont add that big amount of dmg do they?

[@carolthepyro899]

@@Sgt_RED some do like mainly potency floor increase ones and the weapon type potency augments. Theres also weapon potencials aswell

[@Setosaito]

Knuckles has been my go to weapon since the beginning. That sway counter is stylish and powerful! Solid video. Those knuckles you were using looked cool. Are they actual knuckles or a weapon camo? Haven't played much PSO2 which is why I'm asking.
