13:46 I found some oki after using mantis 1+2. Press D/b 3 and do scarecrow 4. It will cover all options other than tech rolls. As the scarecrow 4 will whiff on tech rolls, I do the db3 b to cancel the scarecrow transition, and do ff4. Ff4 will work on everything after the db3 b scarecrow cancel, except side rolls. You will need to mixup both of these attacks 😂

Can't wait to see this Zafina Normal Human Left Arm Mod get created! Maybe like remove that purple stuff from her upper arm and probably give that left hand some fingernail polish color options.

[@LoneTaurus82]

This mod has been updated by the modder to allow her nails to be colored now per my suggestion to them. I have mostly been testing it out as they update it. It would be nice if she had a full normal left arm but I don't mind that her upper arm still has the Azazel energy flowing which looks cool like it is half cursed in a way but hasn't fully overtaken her arm. The hand was the most unsightly thing for me. It's a miracle they achieved that much with it. BN should have released Zafina's T6 outfit without the Azazel arm though or add a in game option to remove it since her ALT A/ALT B customs have a fully modeled left hand/arm. Was very lazy and careless of them to do that for a paid DLC of her legacy T6 outfit. Ruined other ones too like her swimsuit. Shouldn't need mods to fix something for her as simple as this.

@@LoneTaurus82 Well that's good you're usually testing out this Zafina Costume Mod since I was also keen on owning it so I would enjoy that original human arm she once had. Sure hope that this mod will be publicly released on the Tekken Mods website.

It's good to see her normal left hand again bro, 🕷️🦅🦂🙏❤️😃

[@LoneTaurus82]

I'm happy too bro it makes her Tekken 6 outfit feel more legit. I kind of like that her arm is half cursed too as if she is holding back Azazel from fully taking over her hand 😄

[@zafo103]

@LoneTaurus82 now imagine if she is fully controlled by Azazel, hahaha she would be a little demon version of Azazel... 🤣😅🕷️🦅🦂👏

[@blodia958]

They need to update the costume just like how they did Lili's. Zafina's missing her red and blue earrings for this costume. I bet Namco has no keen eye for detail

[@LoneTaurus82]

I agree they really missed the finer details of Zafina's Tekken 6 outfit. She is also missing her classic smoky eye shadow. Harada went out his way for Lili to be sure her outfit got updated but I doubt he will do the same for Zafina. He doesn't like to respond to tweets directed at her a lot on Twitter/X for whatever reason. You mention any other female like Lili, Asuka, etc he is all on that. She deserves better but him and devs with BN are biased towards Zafina for reasons I still don't understand.

[@darksiders2002]

Again, thank you and the modder for doing something a billion dollars company is too stingy to make. 👍

[@LoneTaurus82]

You're welcome! The modder plays Zafina themselves which was a plus. They were more than willing to oblige my request for the hand mod for that fact too. It is kind of crazy BN couldn't have made this one exception for Zafina and allow her to have a normal left arm considering her Tekken 6 outfit is a PAID legacy outfit and should be exactly like she was originally in that game.

[@darksiders2002]

​@@LoneTaurus82A huge plus, I would say. To tell you the truth, most of my customs are modded, but wish there was the arm mod for summer and dancer costume as well. Summer costume has a weird naila clipping through the arm. Yeah, I questioned that decision, but no reply. At this point I believe they just don't give a damn about us, and they are basically in "take it or leave it" mode. There are so many quality of life things they are not giving us. And just keep going with, whatever they ideas are.

[@LoneTaurus82]

@@darksiders2002 I would like to think it would be a way to do a full arm mod to remove Azazel arm completely for Zafina as well. Even with this one it seems the modder was only able to modify her hand and not her full arm. BN could easily just add a specific arm option in customization to allow us to remove it and replace with her normal arm with painted nails already modeled in the game on her ALT B custom, but they could care less about Zafina players preferences in that area. The summer costume nail clipping is clear proof they kind of forced molded the Azazel arm on that one. Seems it probably was her ALT B arm with the nails underneath it. Many pointed this out to them on Twittter/X through their report system and they have yet to fix it. Tells you all how much they care about her dedicated player base.

[@darksiders2002]

​​@@LoneTaurus82I think there is a way. Been thinking to try and alter it, but don't know how much I remember tinkering with UE. Usually I learn stuff, fix stuff, and forget stuff. Not to mention tips and tricks are somewhat hard to find nowdays. There is Zafina model without Azazel arm, we know it, they know it. This is just them being a-holes and doing whatever they want. Maybe switching models would help. I know. Called them out several times for that. Maybe if we were in larger numbers, something would change. Like with Heihachi and the stage. Like this, Zafina playerbase being low, we can't do much. Which is shame. Like you said - it really shows how little thay care about their fanbase. At this moment, I don't think T8 will last long. Players pool is lower by the day, and even casuals like me don't have much to play. Single player part is bad, Tekken Ball is bad. I will tell you, if Zafina wasn't in the game, I wouldn't bought it. Was lucky in T7 to have Anna and Zafina released. And Tekken Bowl.
