How to play
Starfarer - Fundamentals
Use Basic Attacks and Signal Orbs to build energy for her Signature Move:
Blue and Yellow Pings can be used consecutively
Holding Basic Attack activates her chainsaw and quickly generates energy
When activating Signature Move:
All Signal Orbs will be hidden
Holding Basic Attack will charge the Core Passive gauge
Releasing Basic Attack will trigger an additional attack and grant Pressure stacks based on the timing
At 200 Pressure stacks fully charging the Core Passive gauge will trigger Burning Blow, consuming all stacks to create a powerful explosion
When the energy bar is full again, Starfarer can press the Signature Move button to perform a highly powerful attack and return to normal:
The damage of the final explosion is determined by the damage dealt by the last Burning Blow
Time Lag Calculation is active during this attack
Starfarer - Additional Information
Core Passive details:
Using Blue and Yellow Pings or holding the Dodge button will activate Starfarer's boosters and allow her to quickly fly around
Signature Move details:
Pressing Basic Attack without holding will not charge the Core Passive gauge
Releasing Basic Attack at different timings will trigger different follow-up attacks:
Releasing too early or too late will generate 80 Pressure stacks and a small amount of energy
Releasing just in time (after the gauge is more than half full) or just as an enemy is about to attack will generate 120 Pressure stacks and a larger amount of energy
Advanced techniques:
The timing for the perfect Core Passive release is signaled by a sound effect during the charge
It's possible to press the Signature Move button as soon as Burning Blow lands to skip the animation without losing damage
Dodging can cancel the Core Passive follow-up attacks, losing damage but still generating energy and Pressure stacks
At SS rank, after using Signature Move and swapping to another character, 4 missiles will be fired every 3 seconds for 12 seconds
If her Signature Weapon Implosion is equipped, the missiles will inflict Fire Resistance reduction, and activating Starfarer's QTE will reset the off-field missiles duration to 12 seconds
