Knockdown with rifles

[Weeaboolits]

Seeing as though I generally prefer bows, I've just today gotten a rifle bullet up to level 21 for the first time, I'm using a Blackbull, when I shoot enemies, it knocks them down, is this normal for rifle bullets, or is it just some odd effect for the Blackbull?

I can't remember if I ever knocked anything down before 21 because I used it pretty much exclusively on large enemies. :/

[DaRkWoLf30]

My friend said it doesn't knock down at 21 likes it suppose to but i have yet to try it.

[Golto]

Aganist flying enemies? Those are the only enemies I've knocked down with a rifle.

[Retehi]

If you think it's the Blackbull's effect, it's not. Someone demonstrated it once to me, and it acted like a normal rifle. (cept the awesome sounding, and looking shot. . .)

[Realmz]

rifle with knockdown? In my phantasy star?

it's less likely then you'd think

[Shiryuu]

Isn't he only playing offline?

[Weeaboolits]

Yeah, I'm offline, forgot to mention that.

Rifles do a twitch effect, this twitch can knock down Shagreece, Zoona, possibly Tengoug and possibly Jusnagun. This knockdown ONLY occurs when the enemy is assended to the air. However, Lag can occur, and not affect the Shagreece, or Zoona.

As of now, no Rifle can do Knockup, -back, or -down.

I'm actually talking about enemies on the ground, like Vanda Merhas.

That's just a face plop because you just got a Blackbull when they haven't even gotten a Rappy Feather, and compounded with the fact you're STILL not online.

[Weeaboolits]

Does it not work online or something? Maybe it has to do with the power or something, like how enemies won't send you flying when you get stronger. :/

[Almighty_Envy]

Doesnt work online

I tested it with a different bullet, only my level 21+ bullet has knockdown, it has a little swirly effect too.

[Rashiid]

0.o

must be an Offline thing.

[Weeaboolits]

I'll test it with another rifle later, it's probly ofline only, but it's dead usefull, makes dealing with those pesky Bil De Vears a brease. ;]

Offline rifles knockdown at lvl 21+...however they do not have this effect online

[Zarbolord]

Ok here goes:

Online normal rifles do not have knockback or knockdown.

Offline I've tested the blackbull. Under lvl 21 PAs have knockback, at lvl 21+ it has knockdown. Knockback works for big enemies too, like bil de vears on Absolute Zero.

The blackbull there for holds this capacity of knockback/knockdown. Although it still has to be checked online I'm sure it has the same effects (fuka freeze enemies, exactly like offline, so its plausable...).

Just tested it with an Assassin, and I get knockdown with that too.

Falcon does it too, it's just an effect of high level bullets offline. Sucks, I was hoping to have such an ability online. :/

[amtalx]

That would be awesome...however, it would make a group of rangers pretty much unstoppable if that were carried over to online mode.

[DoubleK93]

LOL ok ok. I'm fine now! I actually think we don't have enough cast's!

[TheLOLBandit]

i use rifles all the time but i have never knocked an ememy down ... unless they were flying.... i think that might be a BlackBull special feature



oh and ..... I WANT ONE SOOOO BAD!!!!!

[DoubleK93]

I have falcon and falgoho's +5 and they make Gohma Dilla + Gohma Methna back up everytime i hit 'em and my bullets are only lvl 9!!!

[360NyTeMaRe]

I noticed my bullet has a knockdown effect called DEATH.

When I shoot an enemy (on a C or B mission) most of the time it falls and dies in one hit.

[DoubleK93]

Mine doesn't it takes like 4or5 hits and everytime it hits it...it goes backward from my bullet!

[landman]

This is an off-line only feature, and any rifle does it, not only blackbull. Off-line bows hit 2 enemies too, I am not sure about them on-line...

[360NyTeMaRe]

The closest you can come to it online is (what I do)... Lv80 CAST Fortegunner (10) with a Phantom +7, Lv30 bullet, Hard / Power Charge. It only works in C and hardly any B missions.

Most of the time you have to get a critical hit for it to work on B, my critical hits for around 1,150 with some of my weaker bullets, like Lv30 Frozen Shot.
