The Raider is adaptable and straightforward that controls battle by disabling foes and striking hard. As such, a lot of the Raiders advanced strategies revolve around Throws and Stunning Attacks.


Basic Tips

üThe Raider has three Attack Chains: Chop and Poke is a quick chain performed by using three consecutive Light Attacks.

üThe second Chain, Wild Swinging, is performing by using three consecutive Heavy Attacks, the last of which affects the area around you.

üFinally, Winding Slashes is performed by initiating with a Heavy Attack, into a Light Attack, and finished with another Heavy Attack.

üWhen surrounded by enemies, press Light Attack and Heavy Attack simultaneously to perform a Zone Attack. On the Raider, this is an Unblockable attack.

üWhile sprinting, perform a Heavy Attack to initiate a Reaping Charge.

üWhile sprinting, holding Guardbreak will pick up and push an enemy over a distance.

üWhen locked onto a target, press Light Attack and Heavy Attack simultaneously to perform an Unblockable swing. This can be used during a Chain Attack to confuse enemies and for extra damage.

üWhen locked onto an enemy, Dodge forward combined with a Light Attack will perform a Stunning Tap, stunning your opponent.

Advanced Tips

üThrow enemies while charging them while sprinting or after a Guardbreak. You can mix it up by performing a Stunning tap on a recovering enemy.

üEnemies are stunned when The Raider knocks them into the environment with a Guardbreak charge. Be aware of hard surfaces around you, or ledges for an easy kill.

üEnemies lose stamina when knocked into others. When multiple enemies are present, try and knock an enemy into another with Charge. Enemies that are out of Stamina can be freely hit with a Heavy Attack.

üUse Stunning Tap from a Long range to close the distance and initiate Stance. 
üGuardbreak your enemy from a greater range by leading with a forward Dodge. Follow this up with a Knockdown and further punishment.

üGain advantage over your enemy with a Stunning Tap to stun them, then follow up with an Attack while they are disoriented for easy damage.

üAvoid being Parried by canceling a Heavy Attack with a Light Attack on startup to perform a Stunning Tap.

üLinking an Unblockable Attack during Chains cancels the Chain and deals more damage.


üFeint your Unblockable Attack by canceling it during startup to confuse the enemy and reset into a safe neutral stance. by IGN
