Tips and Tricks[]
Role & Strategy[]
- Feathered Edges is a fighter with a Signature Ability that relies on well-timed blocks, gaining stacks of BARRIER while disabling the opponent's blockbusters and TAG INS when doing so. She also reflects and multiplies damage done by projectiles while under the effect of BARRIER, punishing any zoning the opponent might attempt.
- Being one of the few users of DISABLE TAG-INS, Feathered Edges is best used on offense as she can forcefully keep her opponent in the fight, allowing her to take down the enemy team in a specific order. This makes her great for fights where the enemy relies on support from one specific fighter, as she can bring them out with an OUTTAKE and focus them down, weakening the other two enemies in the process.
- Feathered Edges gains 3 stacks of BARRIER without any timers when barely blocking a hit, giving her good survivability. This is useful in offense, where the player can control when she blocks to tank reflect damage from variants like Dread Locks and Immoral Fiber.
- DISABLE BLOCKBUSTERS is also useful to prevent opponents from punishing her through Tier 3 blockbusters.
- As projectiles tend to do a lot of damage, the reflection damage from her second Signature Ability should not be underestimated. Avoid using any projectiles while BARRIER is up when fighting her on defense.
- Marquee Ability: The optimal Marquee Ability depends on where you want to place Feathered Edges. As a more offensive oriented variant, SPECTRAL SPITE is recommended, which gives her more damage the lower her health percentage is. As a variant with no way to increase her damage otherwise, the boost is appreciated.
- Due to the nature of her Signature Ability, it is recommended that players build her as a Critless Variant.
Stat Investment[]
- General Investment: As an offensive Fukua, Feathered Edges is best built with Attack, Piercing, Meter Gain and Special Cooldown.
- Special investment: Investing HP will allow her to tank more damage through her BARRIER.
