Hunter Discussion

I don't believe the window closes when you're fully charged. I seem to get off a lot of late parries even while charging from full gear.

I like having it maxed a lot, since it lets me spam Rising Edge pretty recklessly while getting a ton of PP back. I gave up War Brave to max it (and Hunter Gear Boost) since I hardly got any use out of it.

Guilty Break takes 0.(3) sec to charge. Nova/Rising Edge take 0.(6). Ride Slasher takes 0.8(3) second to full charge. Repeating digits are fun.

I definitely recommend Charge Parrying as well, however, I am still trying to figure out if the Parry window is closed once a PA is fully charged.

Keeping in mind, at Gear level 3, Sword PAs charge fully in .5 seconds and Charge Parrying covers you for .7 seconds: do we miss out on the .2 seconds of passive JG once the PA is fully charged? Is it possible to parry after the PA fully charges?

Truthfully, I have not tested the above, but from normal play, I have my doubts. This calls into question if dropping 5 SP in Charge Parrying is worth it, or if we can do 3 SP (which means the skill provides .5 seconds of coverage to complement level 3 gear charging).

At max, I'm like 90% sure I've parried multiple times with a fully-charged PA. I don't think the guard window extends into the PA animation itself, but you do have a really excessive amount of safety anyway.

I'm dropping a handful of utility skills for 5 points, and it's been incredibly useful for uptime so far. Even in more demanding boss fights, substituting Charge Parry Guilty Break for a guard or step feels really smooth.

i have enough stones for auster and orbit but don't know which one should i choose for sword and knuckle. Anyone can help me about this ?

Does Charge Parrying work with Partizan PAs Assault Buster and Slide End?

[Charmeleon]

Yes. Vol Graptor too.

Definitely Orbit for both sword and knuckle. Unless you already have an invade version of them.

so orbit weap are that good that can replace all austere ?

Sword has PP recovery problems and Orbit really helps with that. The other benefit is Orbit can be paired with the leg unit for additional attack, though even with that I believe Austere is still stronger overall.

If you already have Austere (like I do), don't bother.

Really makes me wish that you could recover PP during charge PAs on Sword.
