Overview
Savage Hit is one of 10 unique skills that can be learned from Frogidi's Fortunes.
Savage Hit has no alternative colors.
The timing for the Action Command is about a second after the player's arm is raised.
Succeeding the Action Command performs a 'Critical!' hit, increasing the amount of Damage dealt by 1 and inflicting
Stun.
Usage
Savage Hit deals a good amount of Damage to one enemy in addition to inflicting
Stun for 2 turns and
1 Defense piercing.
Compared to the other 2 SP cost Frogidi's Fortunes skills: Dull Rapier and Barrage, Savage Hit is similar
Damage to Dull Rapier, but much less total
Damage than Barrage.
Savage Hit could be considered a "stronger" Slap in many ways, mainly with its longer Stun duration and superior
Damage, but also has the
Defense piercing. The only downside is that Savage Hit costs
2 SP, while Slap costs
0 SP.
The Stun of the Savage Hit makes it best used against enemies with dangerous skills, such as the Wraith's Evil Impact and Tangler's Vine Trap.
Against Corruption 1 enemies, the enemies will all have at least
1 Defense, making Savage Hit a viable skill for dealing
Damage and also the bonus to
Stun.
Against Corruption 2 and 3 enemies, the enemies will all be immune to
Stun, making Savage Hit a less useful skill for the situation and is overshadowed by Dull Rapier in every way if the enemy is immune to
Stun.
Overall, Savage Hit works best as a way to stall an enemy or to prevent a dangerous skill from being used.
Notes
- Savage Hit will not inflict
Stun if no
Damage was dealt or if the target has the
Stun Guard status.
- Bosses and
Corruption 2+ enemies immune to the
Stun status.
Trivia
- Savage Hit can be used by
Corruption 2+ Bandits, Burglars, and Tanglers.
- Non-critical Damage used to be 5 but got changed in a newer update.
- There is another "Savage" melee move, Savage Steal, which is exclusive to The Bandit King.
