Additional Information

• Unique warp strike: Noctis will not strike initially, rather, he will set up for a barrage of arrows at point blank range. Aims high for some reason, and will miss most enemies except large ones.
• Directional input during fire will make Noctis perform a quickstep, similar to daggers. Fully invincible during the duration. Releasing the directional input and inputting it again during the dodge performs an MP-free airstep.
• Damage is greatly reduced as you go farther from your opponent. Kind of weird how a ranged weapon is strongest up close.
• Trait: Overpenetration. Arrows will continue past enemies to hit other enemies behind. Good for multi-encounters, but each enemy struck will also drain your health, which can lead to a quick death.
• Pro-Tip: Combining with Overwhelm gives it an insane fire rate and damage. You can enter danger state in Overwhelm, so be careful you don't accidentally drain all of your health.
