Slap

Overview

Slap is one of the 10 unique skills that can be learned from Frogidi's Fortunes.
Slap 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 the Stun status.

Usage

Slap deals one of the lowest total amount of Damage in the game, but is compensated with the Stun status on a 'Critical!' hit and has a 0 SP cost.

Compared to the other 0 SP cost Frogidi's Fortune skill, Basic Archery deals overall more Damage, resulting in Slap only being useful to stall an enemy.

There is also Tough Vine Trap, which is effectively a stronger version of Slap, dealing 1 Damage more and can still inflict Stuck if the Action Command is failed.

One of the more useful enemies to use Slap on is against Wraiths, as they are vulnerable to Stun and can potentially deal high Damage with Evil Impact each turn. However, Savage Hit and Stunning Vine Trap can achieve better results at the cost of some SP.

Against Corruption 1 enemies, Slap isn't any more useful than before.

Against Corruption 2+ enemies, Basic Archery outclasses Slap for its Defense piercing and the enemies' immunity to Stun.

Overall, Slap holds a spot of utility for Stunning an enemy for one turn, however it is mostly overshadowed by other skills of the same SP cost which can outright defeat an enemy.

Notes

• Slap will not inflict Stun if no Damage was dealt or if the target has the Stun Guard status.
• Bosses and all Corruption 2+ enemies are immune to the Stun status.

Trivia

• First skill introduced in the game to cost 0 SP and also inflict a status.
