Where to Attack

Differences in attacks from front, back and to various portions of the body

A chance of successfully hitting a target is calculated with the ability value, but in fact, if you attack enemies from right behind, any attack can hit them ten out of ten.
This said, you may have trouble moving around to the back of monsters since they will naturally come to attack you.
Consequently, the cooperative gameplay comes into the picture here.

If you attack an enemy from right behind while another player is attracting its attention to him/her, you will be able to hit it 100%.
This shows that weapons or Races with lower hit accuracy can utilize their abilities by working together.

Boss characters are damaged differently depending on the body parts attacked.
You may defeat one more easily than you expected by attacking a specific portion of its body.

Battling Through the Features 2

Wipeout, Blowaway, and Launch

PSU features some of the most radically changed features and effects like Wipeout, Blowaway and Launch.
Sometimes the normal tactics you can employ simply won’t be enough and this is where these effects come into play

You can wipe out, blow away, or launch monsters by using specific attacks, which has been much changed, certainly compared to PSO.
They in turn cannot counter-attack until they recover and regain their balance.

For instance, some Photon Arts have the effects of Blowaway or Launch.
Also, the Wipeout effect will be added to some Techniques if you upgrade them.

Similarly, you can blow away the enemy with the available SUV-Weapons and Nanoblast.

If there is a quick enemy one way to win against it could be to bring it down using an attack, then surround it and bringing it down?
Such a method has more significant meaning in the team-based gameplay, as well as the single-player gameplay.
You can attack formidable enemies unilaterally by taking advantage of these effects.
