Rising Strike vs Gravity Strike !!

[Arika]

IF you choose only 1 for saber PA
(no bruce's PA choice please, it is unrelease)

Rising Strike :
basic,very fast hit, first = knock up, second = knock back, it is so useful, but it hit only few quick hit.
suit for AF style ,I think (high EVA = high block, they need fast combo PA more than slow combo PA)

Gravity Strike :
Hyuga 's PA , more combo and it can hit up to 3 enemies, totally over damage than risking strike. but the step of first combo>second combo is quite slow, this make enemy counter chance!!
suit for damage favor like FG/FF(if they use saber:P)

What do u think? state ur idea and choice

Tend to use them both. Rising Strike can send things flying quite a bit and quickly knocks down alot of stuff that otherwise tend to be troublesome. If you're ready you can keep them down and prevent any counterattacks. Great mobcontrol.

Gravity on the other hand does more damage even if it leaves you vulnerable. And unlike Rising Strike it won't send the monsters into orbit so you won't mess too much for fellow partymembers.

Lately I've mostly used Gravity, but I still use Rising Strike with a few of my sabers.

I'd stick with rising strike. Keeps most big guys temporarily stun-locked. usually for most PA's, I choose it's capabilities as well as damage. Sure you can hit multiple times with Gravity Strike, but at the same time you can get blasted, megid, or frozen where as the enemy can't retaliate when you're stunning them with rising. Just my style of melee fighting. If they can't do anything, they're easier to kill.

Rising strike if your afraid of getting hit (low level, levelling a low level job, whatever) or you can't get it past 10 because it has a knockup effect right at the getgo, whereas gravity strike doesn't have it until the second part.

I think gravity strike is better in the end than rising, personally, you just have to level it.

You said for Rising strike, but you vote for Gravity Strike lol, because first 2 vote = gravity

What if he didn't vote at all?

Both skills have their roles. What saber skill is appropriate to use is dependent on what else you're carrying, I'd say--whatever properly compliments your style.

I like Rising Strike more, simply because of how it looks. I don't like how Gravity Strike looks, so you may never see me with it, despite how much better it is for damage.

[Weeaboolits]

I like Gravity Strike, mainly because I like moves that hit a lot.

Rising strike for me please!
