Combat
A concise combat primer based on the visible defensive cue and weapon-quality system.
The cited guide says to time a Perfect Block from the directional indicator’s orange shield cue rather than trying to read the instant of every enemy swing. It also identifies the Perfect Riposte skill as a follow-up that guarantees a critical hit after a successful perfect block.
Blue, purple and orange weapons are described by the same source as carrying weapon arts: cooldown-based abilities that act like an additional skill. Before replacing a weapon, compare its art and your current encounter needs, not only its rarity.
Use ordinary encounters to learn the block cue and test a weapon art’s range and cooldown. This draft does not assign universal rankings to weapon arts; the source establishes that they exist, while a build recommendation would need separate, testable evidence.
