Introduction to Link Strike and Blindside Link
First, I named everything Link Strike, but that’s wrong. Some of these moves are called Blindside Link too. Both types are links anyway. Link Strike happens when you parry an attack, while Blindside Link happens when you attack an enemy from behind.
- Links make the characters invincible while doing the animations.
- Links will randomly choose someone close to Noctis to perform the animation. The weapon the other character will use is also random.
- If you hit on the back of a enemy, you will see a mensage on screen saying it was a Blind Side attack. It can perform a Blindside Link too. If you notice you hit from behind but you did not perform a link, you have to press the attack button again, if you keep holding the attack button you wont perform a Blindside Link.
- If Links are not being triggered is probably because the other characters are far from Noctis, or they are busy (in danger, evading, healing someone, etc).
- Friendship Band, an equip, can make links happen easily when equiped at someone from the party.
- Links only damage the enemy you performed the link. There are a few exceptions, like the ones Promp uses the Machine that explode and hit everybody around the explosion.
- Links have multipliers to break appendage, and are also appendage breakers*
- Appendage is the enemys defense. If you break it, it will inflict a debuff in the enemy. Each enemy has different debuffs and 1 or more parts of the body to break.
Example: An enemy needs to loose 400 HP to break appendage. If a weapon has a 10x multiplier (Cerberus Sniper), you only need to damage 40 HP (40 x 10 = 400).
You also need to perform an attack to break the appendage (Warp Strike, for example). Links have multipliers and can break appendage! (Not all Links are like this. But most of them are).
Here is the list of ALL Link Strikes/Blindsides Links:
