User blog:Call me Ken or Accel/GE2 Blade tips for newbs and pros

More tips will be added in the future and if you guys have any tips feel free to share~!

Note - I'm using this sets









Shielding
Shield right after attacks and devour. It stop the cooldown animation for them.

No knockback
Release the shield button right after you've been hitted. It's take time to perfect it (I got to a point where I don't even move)

Devour after blocking
You should devour if possible (in range and no other Aragami is attacking  you).

Knockback
You can change the direction of the knockback by facing at other direction.

Example;
 * 1) You're facing at the enemy.
 * 2) Right after an attack hit your shield (banging sound).
 * 3) Turn to your left or right and you'll move back to the way you're facing.
 * 4) You can also use this as a gap closer by facing back at your enemy.

This require timing, so try it with an Orgetail.

Miscellaneous
If you were hitted 1 second after landing the ground, Just Guard will be triggered. Everytime.

Short Blade
Short Blade is... well... short. To make up with the shortyness, it have 5 combo (Square and Triangle each and combined), high mobility (Step Cancel) and Rising Edge.

Rising Edge is an attack that make you fly into the air and you able to do air attacks. R+Square on the ground to the move.

Fighting slow enemy
Attack > Shield > Attack, rinse and repeat (unless they start doing self defence attack...)

This way you can pump more damage per second to Critical Spot (and making the enemy stagger more often). Equip Piercing Ray Blood Art (Ground Triangle) to pump more damage.

Fighting fast enemy
Attack > Rising Edge > Air Step > Triangle > Step

This is a great way to stick to them. Equip Dancing Zapper for more stickiness!

Movement
You all know about Attack > Step > Attack > Step technique right? I got better, it require Lv. 3 Burst.

Step > Jump > Air Step > Jump > Triangle > Step

Faster assuming that you didn't mess it up and this is almost 10x faster if equiped with rank 11 Evasive Buckler.

Blood Arts
Blood Splattering Dance

Do I need to say anything?

Piercing Ray

Stab those weak spots for days.

Kirin Canter

A devastating Blood Art that eat your Stamina.

Note: the Stamina consumtion is reduced to 1 if you're in lvl 3 Burst.

Flying Lotus

The best BA for flying Aragamis and it also hit the same place multiple times unlike Dancing Zapper BA.

Long Blade
Long Blade have a medium range. It have 4 combo (Square and Triangle each and combined), Zero Stance and Impulse Edge.

Zero Stance is added in God Eater 2 as a power up for Long Blade. This allow you to do infinite combo as it recover Stamina with each use. To do Zero Stance, press R+Square.

Impulse Edge is already in the game (God Eater). This make the gun fire a Radial (Bomb or Shot in GEB) that have a quite long range. To do Impulse Edge, press R+Square (Zero Stance) and R+Square again (Impulse Edge).

Note: On lv 3 Burst, IE require very little amount of Oracle Point. So, don't afraid to spam it

Ground Square attacks
Don't finish the intire combo because the 4th attack is much slower than the earlier attacks.

Ground Triangle attack
Use Triangle attack as a reposition move.

Impulse Edge
Dont underestimate its power. IE can dish out damage none of the other blades can.

I can do a short work of these Aragamis:
 * Fierce Kongou
 * Quadriga
 * Borg Camlann
 * Sariel
 * Ouroboros
 * Kongou
 * Maybe more...

Blood Arts
Misty Moon

It's a "Okey" Blood Art. It's does multiple hits.

Zero Stance: Infinite Azure Katana Blood Art

This Blood Art may not look like much but it raise the blade's damage multiplier the longer the Blood Art last. As the name implies, it last forever until you stop chaining it.

Attack 3 times > Zero Stance > Attack 3 times > Zero Stance

IE Type II: Rapid Fire

This is a good IE Blood Art as it homing on Crit Spot (Hannibal's head, Quadriga's Head). It use small amount of Oracle Point on rank IV.

IE Type I: Chain Explosion

This Blood Art is a good one for Downing Aragamis (Quadriga's front legs etc).

Buster Blade
Buster Blade is one of those BFS in a sword based games. It have 3 combo (Square and Triangle each and combined), Charge Crush, Guard Cancel and Parrying Upper.

Charge Crush is a power slam. It can deal face-rolling damage if use correctly. To do Charge Crush, hold Square.

Guard Cancel is almost the same as Step Cancel but this use the shield you equiped. Step and Charge Crush can be Guard Cancel.

Parrying Upper is added in GE2. What this does it you'll do a quick guard and then you do a upper slash. It eat Stamina with each use, so watch your Stamina bar. To do it, press R+Square.

Guard Cancel
Guard Cancel everything. Guard Cancel is life. Don't use Parrying Upper as it really hard to execute it.

Fast Enemies
Just wait and be patience. It will worth it.

Blood Arts
Crush Wave This Blood Art add 4 shockwaves to Square combo. Each of the wave can hit 1 Aragami but the lenght of the shockwaves are the same with your Buster Blade.

CC Destruct

Lindow's Buster Blade Blood Art. This Blood Art is 3 part attack and it is really good for Sariels and Ouroboros. CC Destruct is useful in many situation.

Helm Splitter

This make your Air Triangle attack release a shockwave that can hit multiple times and pass through enemies.

CC Divider

The same as above but it use Charge Crush. The shockwave does not pass though enemies but it can deal serious damage.

Boost Hammer
Boost Hammer is a new weapon in God Eater 2. It focus on pure Crush damage (there is some that have other damage). It have 3 combo (Square and Triangle each andcombined) and Boost (R+Square) which can do Boost Rush (Square), Boost Impact (R+Square) and Boost Rush (Triangle).

Boost is a Boost Hammer special action which it fire up it's rocket exhaust and give a new attack.

Boost Rush is a infinite swinging attack. Stamina consumtion is reduce greatly at lv 3 Burst.

Boost Impact is a finishing attack as it swing the Hammer to the ground and end the Boost.

Boost Rush is a dashing attack that can deal damage. The distance is roughly 2 dashes.

Stopping Boost
Tap the shield button. This is really useful when you're low on Stamina and need to back off.

Fast enemy
Like Buster Blade, just wait.

Lvl 3 Burst
Try getting it and keep it as it reduce Boost's Stamina consumtion.

Blood Arts
Iron Heart

A Boost Blood Art that give a shield during all Boost attack. It's a good BA for sticking in and deal damage. Try keeping lv 3 Burst and God Eater Control Unit for more effectiveness.

Tenderizer

A Blood Art for Boost Rush. I can't say anything else but it's the best Blood Art (for now).

Charge Spear
Charge Spear is a new weapon introduced in GE2. It focus on piercing damage (some have sunder damage). Charge Spear have 4 combo (Square and Triangle), Charge Glide (hold Square) and a backflip (R+Square).

Charge Glide is a lunging attack that does not consume Stamina for each use nor charging it. It can be let go on the ground and mid air.

Backflip require Stamina for each use and the cost is reduce when you're in lv 3 Burst. You can use this as a gap closer by facing the other way and then do Triangle air attack.

Charge Glide
Use it as a gap closer. It also power up your normal attacks and Blood Arts.

Blood Arts
 Hurricane Type 

The best BA for the Charge Spear. It uses Stamina for each swing so watch your Stamina bar. Pick the type B for those who perfer using gun.

Gatling Spike

It's a good BA but hard to aim because of the Oracle appear on the side of the spear.

Crimson Glide

The only good Charge Glide BA because it hit multiple times.
