Gameplay PrimerDFC%20HUD.png
1) Life Gauge:

  • Taking hits reduces your life. You lose when it hits 0

2) Support Gauge:

  • When it’s lit up, you can call your assist. When it’s grayed out, you cannot. It will refill with time.

3) Blast Icon:

  • “OK” - Blast is Usable
  • “Charging” or “Wait” - Blast is Unusable. Displays a percentage while charging

4) Trump Card Icon:

  • Start each game with two. Using trump card will consume one icon. After using trump card, the icon will become a meter for a short time. During this time, each character has different enhancements. Losing a round will return one icon.

5) Time Display:

  • Counts down from 99 to 0. At 0, the fighter with the most life will win the round

6) Round Display:

  • In a 2/3 Game, has two icons. A 3/5 game will have 3. Displays a “V” for normal victory or a “T” for time over victory

7) Climax Gauge:

  • Max 5 levels. Builds slowly in neutral even for just walking forward. Used for:
    • Climax Arts
    • Reflection Guard
    • EX Special Moves
    • Support Cancels

Combinations: :abt: > :bbt: > :cbt:  etc.



Every character can perform chain combinations going from Weak to Strong attacks

Quick Combination: :abt: > :abt: > :abt: 



Like P4A, auto combo that goes from weak attacks into supers

Impact Skill: :abt: + :bbt:  or  :d:  :abt: + :bbt: 



Powerful attacks that can counteract your opponent’s attacks

Impact Break:  :b:  :abt: + :bbt: (Follow-up on hit with :abt: / :bbt: / :cbt: )



Universal overhead attacks that can be followed up for combos

Extend Action: Holding or pressing the button for Normals and Specials again (character specific)



The attack will change by holding the button (or pressing it again in some cases)

Special Moves: Specific commands+ :abt: / :bbt: / :cbt: (Character Specific)



Characters have 3-4 special moves, and Weak, Medium and Strong versions of each

Climax Arts: Specific Commands+ :bbt: + :cbt: 



Powerful super moves. You can use A+C for a stronger version, which will cost 2 meters and 1 trump card icon.

Reflection Guard: While guarding, press any two attack buttons ( :abt: , :bbt: ,or  :cbt: ) simultaneously



A push block to gain space from your opponent that slowly drains your meter

EX Special Moves: Any special move command+ :abt: + :bbt: 



Stronger versions of your character’s special moves which will cost 1 meter

Support Cancel: :s: during an attack



Cancels your attack and calls your Support which will cost 1 meter

You can regain one icon when you lose a round. Uses one icon to activate your characters Trump Card. Each character has a different attack and different effects. Some characters attack during the activation. After it is activated, the icon will turn in a meter that will slowly drain. During this time, all normals become jump cancellable and the normal restriction of :abt: > :bbt: > :cbt:  no longer applies. Also, Support Cancels require no meter and you no longer have an animation when calling assists. At the cost of one trump card and 2 Meters, you can use a more powerful version of your Climax Arts. If you use a Power-Up Burst while Trump Card is active it will increase the length of the Trump Card as well as give you a full bar of meter. 
 
Universal Potential: Increases attack power when your character is low on life. Universal Potential lasts 20 seconds.
Unique Potential: Effect and activation condition is different for each character. Unique Potential lasts 10 seconds.

Here's some complains...

 

Electromagnetic Movement (Denji Kidou) -Magnetic Move- (電磁機動 -マグネティックムーブ-)
Follow-ups:

  • :b:  or :f: : Movement 空中移動
  • :abt: /:bbt: /:cbt: : Attack攻撃
  • :f: :f:  in the air: Mid-air Sprint (Kuuchuu Shikku) -Aerodash-  空中疾駆

Aerodash is its own move. It's not Magnetic Move's follow-up.

 

Climax Arts

Claw Machine(Kyatoru) Mutilation (きゃとるみゅーてぃれーしょん)  

Where did this "Claw" came from? Sure, I do know it's the crane game move, but the name has nothing to do with claws. Move is named "Cattle Mutilation" because it's a reference to the crane games other name, the "ufo catcher game". 

 

Impact Skill

Death by Brazing (デス・バイ・バラージング) 
Juuhou Toumi (柔法当身)  

Kuroyukihime's move isn't "Death By Brazing" but "Barraging"

 

It's "Juuhou AtemI". Do people not know what it means when Japanese refer certain fighting game moves as atemi-moves? "Soft Act Counter" is the most common translation for the move...

 

Specials:

Innocent Charm (無垢なる魔性 -イノセント・チャーム-) 
Reign of the Ice Queen -Ice Age- ( 氷の絶対女王政 -アイス・エイジ-)  
Fireworks Display -Fireworks- (打上げ花火 -ファイアー・ワークス-)  

Innocent Devilishness -Innocent Charm-

 

It's "Koori no Zettai Joousei" so it's actually more close to "The Absolute Queen Regnant of Ice"

"ファイアー・ワークス" is clearly "Fire Works", it's French Bread's game so let's write that Engrish the way it's supposed to be.

 

Also, maybe I didn't notice it, but there wasn't a mention that if you use a Power-up Burst while the Trump Card is already active, the Power-up Burst extends the length of the Trump Card.

-Translation Stuff-

I addressed everything you mentioned, I'm sorry if translations aren't 100% perfect. I simply asked a friend I knew to help me with the translations, I apologize if your OCD with the translations may have bothered you but please don't sound hostile about it. If you see any other errors feel free to PM me about it here or DM me on Twitter.

 

I added the tidbit, the base of everything is from the official site so any other details have yet to be added.

Impact Break is 4 A+B is an overhead Overhead

Impact skills are A+B and 2A+B is like an armored attack I think?

I want to know a bit more about the assists.

When I chatted with some ppl in twitch chat watching early footage it sounded (and looked) like the best assists were the maid that walks until close and waves a bouquet a bunch, and the touma guy that counters all attacks and retaliates with an explosion. But i'm interested in the whirlwind assist - it looks very fast and big, easy to combo off of and I think might be useful even though the mixup potential isn't as big as the maid. But pushblock may make maid mixups less potent.

Well, there's really no need to be that perfect, but... Mistakes just were in the places I didn't expect to see some, so... my bad habit kinda acted up...
 

Minato Tomoka (Ro-Kyu-Bu!)

 
The Absolute Queen Regnant of Ice ( 氷の絶対女王政 -アイス・エイジ-)

Fire Works (打上げ花火 -ファイアー・ワークス-)

Oh, my bad... I didn't explain carefully enough... Tomoka's moves should be in this format:

 

The Absolute Queen Regnant of Ice -Ice Age-

Fireworks Display -Fire Works-

Well I guess my thread's outdated. fine job on the primer, although there are some corrections required:

There is no note of the increased passive meter gain made while moving towards an opponent.

 

There is no note of the instant one stock of meter gained by a power up burst, adding towards the increased passive gain.

 

In the "Climax Gauge" section, there is no specification on the amount of meter consumed by EX attacks, support cancels or regular supers (I also think there is increased meter usage for cancelling specials into EX's/supers, although this may be incorrect).

 

I'm not entirely sure, but I think describing the auto combo as "like P4A's" is in some sense innaccurate, because unlike P4A, I do recall the autocombo being a chain of A move > B move > C move > special > super, rather than the second hits being unique moves. I could be wrong on this though.

 

There is no specific mention of the guard point on either either of the "Impact" abilities.

 

Impact Break is 4 A+B is an overhead Overhead

Impact skills are A+B and 2A+B is like an armored attack I think?


Impact Break's and Skills both contain guard point: It's just that only Skills include it for the entirety of startup.

Good night, old thread, you just wasn't cool enough to contain this spiffy guide.

 

I want to know a bit more about the assists.

When I chatted with some ppl in twitch chat watching early footage it sounded (and looked) like the best assists were the maid that walks until close and waves a bouquet a bunch, and the touma guy that counters all attacks and retaliates with an explosion. 

Just because Kouko wears a frilly dress doesn't mean she's a maid (there is already a maid assist in Wilhelmina, so there can be some confusion when you say that).

 

But yeah, Touman was the strongest assist among the original six, and that seems to still be the case even after we got 8 more of them.

There is no specific mention of the guard point on either either of the "Impact" abilities.

If we believe in Dengeki's recent articles, then Impact Skills have invincibility. I don't know if it goes for all the characters, but Dengeki has referred Shana's, Mikoto's and some other Impact Skills as moves with invincibility.

Actually, we may both be wrong on this: I looked through the old thread to look for what was translated when the mechanic was announced and according to one of SoWL's posts on the eigth page, the initial article described it has possessing one hit of super armor. Of course, this may have been changed afterwards: Now I regret not saving an archive of each article as I initially planned to check :v: .

This was revealed long ago when the game was first announced, it was on their website a long with their Spring 2014 Arcade Release but for some reason it's not up there now. 

-I'm working on the assist section now and then addressing comments everyone had, again keep in mind information was translated from the sites gameplay page so specifics probably aren't mentioned (yet)-

Note that they still haven't specified the exact console they're going to release it on, even though PS is the most likely option.
