Getting Started: Tips for Beginners

Combat Basics

Before diving in, understand the core mechanics:

Weapon Types: Each weapon is split into a blade and handle, allowing customizations to suit your playstyle.
Perfect Guard: A well-timed block negates damage and can break enemy weapons—master this early!
Dodging: Rolls are fast but short; rely more on guarding early on until you improve dodging through upgrades.

Stat Scaling Explained

Motivity: Increases raw strength—ideal for slow, heavy hitters.
Technique: Boosts damage for fast, precise weapons.
Advance: Buffs elemental Legion Arms and status-inflicting weapons.

Best Starting Choice

Pick the Path of the Sweeper for a tanky Motivity build or the Path of the Bastard for quick attacks. The Path of the Cricket offers a balanced route for new players.

Now that you’ve learned the essential mechanics and how to build your character, let’s dive into the full chapter-by-chapter walkthrough to guide your journey through Krat.
