View Full Version : Are all of the weapon skills known?

I've been looking at the various youtube clips of the weapon skills, and can't help but notice that some look pretty lackluster (twin dagger's 'look at me, I can spin around in a tiny circle!') compared to others (twin saber's 'I am killing absolutely everything in sight with a billion slashes'). I also noticed that some sites mentioned that the currently-listed weapon skills are only one-star, and am assuming (or hoping) that they have the same 0-12 star system as items.

Are there more, as-yet undiscovered weapon skills out there? Or is the current lineup the extent of them?

No idea, but I don't think so.

Sounds like a No to me, at least for us beta-users. That and there might be synthesized weps that have unique effects (don't quote me on that)

Yes, there is one more set of PAs for each weapon that hasnt been released yet. Right now, there is two known for each weapon type. First ones are dull and the second ones have more luster. Personally I have seen the 3rd ones and you all will not be disappointed at all. Half of you will prolly crap in your pants lol.

Actually, if you look closer into some of the trailers, you will notice they are using some PAs that havent been released. For example, theres a trailer were Ethan uses Knuckles as rocket fists that fly around him and hit all enemies.

i prefer twin daggers PA over "twin sabers" PA spinning is a win lol twin dagger are better for bosses anyway over sabers http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif i've yet to see the other PA in person so it really doesnt matter thus far.

Well. That video pretty much convinced me not to invest in sword PAs. Neither of them looked all that great and the sword is a really slow weapon. I prefer speed, so I'll definitely be getting some claws and twin claws eventually.

Maybe if you watch the music video in my sig it might change your mind about Swords. They may be slow, but they are really good wrecking machines (I was just like you before I made this vid and it changed my thoughts completely).

Argh. O.K., so I see the power of swords. Maybe I'll invest a little bit of time in them. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif We'll see. I tended to get hit a lot more often when using the sword than even, say, using a spear. But maybe I'm just too used to playing a force to really get this hunter thing down. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Oh. And nice music video, by the way.

I've only actually seen the 3rd PA on Swords (the one used in the Rizen Must Die vid, with the vertical launch), Knuckles (also on Rizens video album, the multi-jab with the rocket punch followup performed by Rizen's furl -don't know the name, sorry =O ), and one for Spears (performed by Ethan on the 'Battle of' digest trailer, where he jumps into the air and delivers a rain of stabs below).

You might wanna be a Figunner then. Nothing wrong with being a hybrid class http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

Twin Claws are slow.

So not only would you be sacrificing range and ultimately power, but also STILL speed. Twin Claws are terrible.

Really? But twin claws look so pretty! And the PAs for them look great. Hrmmm... I figured they'd be as fast as knuckles. Oh well. I guess I'll have to play with them once the retail version comes out over here and all that. I won't be sure until I see if something suits my playstyle. It took me a bit to really get into using spears, but now I really like them. So maybe I'll hate twin claws and fall head over heels over swords. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

hey rizen on the offline game is there a PA with the sword(my favorite weapon) which knocks your opponent in the air and then you jump up after it and slash it

Where do you pick up your second pa? I have only found one.

EDIT: Also what do you guys think about spears? Are they good or should i try swords.

I was pretty bent on twin claws, I kinda fell in love with their PA, and their regular combo doesn't seem bad either, so I'll be shooting for those.

Unless I'm -OH NOES- GIMPING!!!!111!one =O! =O! =O!
