I skipped to 5:06 then watched in reverse so i know how to UNO reverse combo people in real time. :) Thanks, this helps me build my fundamental combo's since i felt loss in progression with some weapons.
I will not skip to 5:06. I'm watching the whole thing with relish. Yes, don't do a vertical attack too early. I say that every day, but no one is listening. The Chef knows.
I took a look at your video before playing this game for the first time. It was quite helpful! I got first place with 16 kills in a solo quickplay :D. I know at level 1 rank it's all noobies, but your video made a ton of difference in helping me learn the bread and butter combos! Thank you!
Im not sure if you make videos still but this one was solid. Would love to see a polesword/Gs in depth video with your thoughts on the weapon/s, pairing with what weapons and how to use.
Just a small tipp the most essential part is hit to release the grapple at the exact same moment when the uppercut hits only then the the blue focus is confirmed and you can hold the blue attack when the grapple hits the ground makes the combo more intuitive for me at least :D
I’m new to naraka and i’ve been playing for a week. I’ve been on the youtube grind for this game and i’ve been stuck on the grapple combo. I can get to the actual grapple part of the combo but i will not bump the enemy up in the air and give me time to do a focused vertical. Struggling on the bread and butter long sword combo 😭😭
I spent an hour learning the staff/spear combo and then the grapple combo with the other weapons from this video. So anyways, I've just really struggled to implement this grapple combo, I can't remember ever to do it, I don't know when to do it, or if I think there actually could be a moment when my opponent is in the air; I always forget that I should I grapple under them and if I do I get tunnel vision thinking I need to grapple under them and that delay is no good. I tried to force myself to do a few games trying to do the combos you mentioned but really something happens where we both hit at the same time and then my brain just short circuits and I don't know what to do next.
Do some customs! Or even turn on combat mode for the bot in free training so it feels more realistic. It’s just a matter of practice before it’s second nature to initiate a combo after getting a stagger.
@@ChefOfTheDeadhi ive tried to do the combo against the bot and almost every single time i try to do the combo he doesnt stagger, this happens in my ranked games too. the bot always dodges away
@@espionagesnail7650 bots are on 0 ping, so this will happen sometimes if you're too slow/doing a soft true combo if the bot isn't staggering, it might be because of blue focus armor(?) which prevents staggers from basic attacks while they're charging, otherwise i don't see any reason it would not be staggered
Is the Hold dodge a neutral input? When I try without touching stick, I dodge forward, when I hold dodge while moving backwards I dodge too far away for the next hit to land.
A hold dodge without any movement input is called a “mid dodge” which actually does work for this if you’d prefer to use that, but there are cases where a hold dodge works better for repositioning. But in your case of dodging too far away, you must tap dodging instead of hold dodging. Make sure you’re holding that dodge input down long enough
@@ChefOfTheDead hah, it's weird, but the circle appears sometimes and sometimes it disappears again even if i near to target. Maybe it's some kind of bug. I didn't even think about it before i watched your video😄
I have only one question, its the HD (Hold Dodge), if I hold dodge, I dodge forwards, how can I hold dodge and bring my character backwards? Edit: I already got it, if u had my problem, u need to (SECOND): "tap" dodge while u press "S" key (FIRST, in order), and u need to hold it a little. It has a strict timing too.
yo off topic here,is there a difference on what platform am i playing with? in one video of yours ive seen that everywhere except steam version you can "turn off " bots,is this function a difference maker or is it not noticable? because i already have lvl 40...something account on steam,but i already consider recreating account on xbox app to avoid more bots
I don't understand the start of the longsword combo 1. I hit my right mouse button - Vertical 2. I hold my dodge button and my S key on my keyboard 3. I hit my right mouse button - Vertical And the bot gets away
are u useing movement keys during this combos? Because don't know why my hero is getting much closer to enemy with every attack and it's getting harder to land hits when he is almost behind u.
CAN YOU STILL grapple combo the bots? I have not been able to hit the heavy vertical after grappling a single time. the bot always gets up before. I'm charging the attack to blue and releasing
I don't really understand why katana combo uses horizontals instead of verticals, as V deals more damage. On a full combo, it's 1377 dmg with H, and 1453 with V and I don't see much differences in term of speed of execution. What's the deal please ?
I explain in the video that only certain attacks will make it so the following uppercut is undodgeable. For each weapon it’s either horizontal or vertical, and in the case of katana of course, the combo uses horizontal rather than vertical because the uppercut is able to be dodged if vertical is used
Thanks for the vids mate, you got me into this game. Are all these still viable? Can't confirm the second hit of Fan/Dagger CH, the last hit of V nunchuks, and the last hit of greatsword/polearm combo
The combo bot can dodge some things that players cannot, 2 of those being the 3 hit combo from dagger/fan and the final hit of the nunchucks combo. The gs/ps combo however, does work on the combo bot if timed properly. All the combos are still fully viable and optimal yep
i dont know maybe i am doing it wrong but most people just dodge out of my dual weapons charged vertical at the end of the combo and sometimes get a parry off what am i doing wrong in the combo is it cause my grapple bump is wrong??
You’re either not cancelling the uppercut quick enough, not starting charging the focus attack early enough, or not releasing the focus attack early enough
@@ChefOfTheDead ok i think its the uppercut cancle its just dificult to translate what i have practised ingame while 3 people are around you . Thank you for the quick reply
You absolutely can, don’t worry, it just comes down to timing. You’re likely not grappling early enough. Make sure you’re firing the grapple at the earliest possible moment after the uppercut, and start holding vertical attack immediately after.
Is there any change to the timing recently? I did the HS/ Katana combo perfectly back then, but now my opponents tend to dodge away on the last focus vertical.
Man, it seems like I can't hit the blue attack with katana/longsword for some reason. It's like i'm late by milliseconds after hitting the grapple bump.
With disengage active? You mean the green focus meter thing? Or do you just mean combo mode. The combos will work against the combo bot without it being able to dodge, with the exception of the dagger/fan three hit combo and the nunchucks/staff/spear final hits
@@ChefOfTheDead I meant combo mode. ok then thats the issue, i was trying the dagger three-combo and nunchucks specifically. Appreciate the feedback bro! easy sub
bro wtf am i doing wrong??????????????????????????????? Ive been practicing the FIRST longsword combo for literally hours and no matter how quickly I do the inputs, the bot rolls just as my final charged vertical goes right by. I have all the inputs down and I know im doing it properly and in order because it looks exactly like your video, but no matter what I do that final hit WILL NOT LAND. Im going insane plz help. Same goes for the final charged vertical on the katana and heng sword.
It almost seems like my grapple bump might not be getting the enemy high enough for there to be enough time for me to charge vert them before they hit the ground
FINALLY. Got it consistent. For some reason I am having to aim farther than what you are showing in the video, almost like past the white circle a decent way. But i got it lol. Good video!
What hits at the same time? There’s nothing I’m doing to drop to the ground faster or anything, simply delaying the horizontal attack. And holding forwards for a sec like I said in the video
Idk what I’m doing wrong, I’m controller and I’ve probably been trying to do the grapple combos for hours how but the bot rolls out of the blue attack just before it goes off
You’re just not inputting fast enough. Make sure your uppercut is getting cut off at the same time that mine is. Activate your grapple and start charging your attack much earlier than think you need to
Whats the point of holding dodge in the grapple combo? For some reason Im really struggling with 3:30 Im doing the 3rd step holding w but im not close enough to the dude and im hitting nothing
I’m not sure what you mean. The combo at 3:30 isn’t a grapple combo, and there’s no dodge involved either. I assume you mean the staff one? There’s no dodge in that combo either though… holding W in that staff combo allows you to get close enough to hit the first standing horizontal and juggle.
@@ChefOfTheDeadHi thanks for your response. I think I misphrased my comment and made it a bit confusing, I was talking about two separate instances in the video. In regard to the grapple combo, I thought I saw you dodge backwards at some point but I must be tripping. In regard to the staff combo, at the end of the combo I can't hit them with the staff im just not close enough.. I posted a video on my channel for context if you want to take a look >.< Thank you for your time
@@TeerapatSakphirom the only thing I can really say is dodge later, it’s not something you can buffer in this case. Dodge later and later until the dodge comes out for you, then work backwards to make it faster
Was trying to perform this combo in free training all day long but haven't did it successfully a single time. I'm doing exactly the same you are showing in video but my bot is landing onto the ground earlier and manages to get up. There is the feeling that something got nerfed recently: maybe grappling hook casting time or the height to which the enemy is thrown when hit with it. And I don't understand completely what am I doing wrong. I use the uppercut and at the very beginning of its animation I shoot the hook to a point slightly behind the white circle (to the point where the edge of the white circle will be after the uppercut) so as not to jump even a millimeter, at the same moment I hold Left to prevent the roll animation after the hit, and immediately after that I start charging FV. It looks exactly like in your video, the only difference is that my bot falls earlier and has time to get up.
There have been no nerfs, don’t worry. Try charging your attack input earlier, you can start holding immediately after you fire the grapple, and make sure you’re not holding it too long
@@ChefOfTheDead I would love to, but my comments are being deleted. I explained the reason in more detail in the letter. Just read it, you can answer here.
nah these combos doesnt work anymore after the patch. even the longsword V-HD-V bot gets away already after the 1st V. playing on pc, lan 65 ping, stable 60+ fps
@@ChefOfTheDead i can do the basic grapple combo using heng sword (combat mode on, w/disengage). for long sword tho... when combat mode is on bot just gets away after 1 normal horizontal kek not sure y
@@ChefOfTheDead just found out it was fps problem smh. i was playing in laptop so i capped it to 61 (1650ti). today i decided to update the gpu driver, tweaked some settings in nvdia control panel & uncapped naraka fps. my fps now is stable 80-140 depending on area& wats happening. decided to try the basic grapple combo again & i can do it consistently now.🤦♂
Honestly if the bot only barely dodges you probably have the timing down well enough for it to work on players, since the bot is slightly faster at dodging than a human. But still if you can get to the point where you can consistently land it on the combo bot that’s ideal
You can do everything that's in the game with controller. It's harder cause the game requires precise inputs, but you can do everything that M&K does. PC vs Consoles is another thing tho cause of fps.
There's 2 types of dodges (Theoretically 3). One you trigger when you tap the button, it's called a tap-dodge, and one you trigger when you hold the button you can guess what it's called lol. Tap dodges give you more I-frames but they have a longer animation, they give you more distance, they're more easily punishable, and compared to hold dodges you can't attack as fast. Hold dodges have less I-frames and it's a shorter animation wich allows you to attack faster and gain initiative. The third one is called a mid-dodge, wich is just a hold dodge but you let the animation finish than attack after it, wich makes it a bit faster than buffering from a hold dodge into an attack.@@majinludwig6130
Thanks lynx. And yeah majin, these combos are just as easy to perform on controller. I even used universal terminology instead of mouse and keyboard stuff like “rmb”
Ping actually shouldn’t be a factor at all for whether they’re doable or not either, although timing will be slightly different. Make sure you’re pre-inputting at the earliest possible point. You can queue up inputs within a short period of time
