When it comes to Tachibana Fufu, the new S-level agent in “Zero”, don’t underestimate her “popcorn pot” or think that her complicated skills are just fancy tricks in the game. Just like a good article, it contains not only the superficial romance, but also the deep skills and scheming – just like the ancient Chinese saying “beyond the words, there are mysteries”.
First, the basic attack power of more than 700 and the impact power of 1800 points seem ordinary, but they have a sobering effect in the skill combination, causing the enemy’s imbalance value to rise. The use of combo skills and finishing skills has set off a wave of damage climaxes, and even the damage of the whole team has increased, which is comparable to the “bringing forth the stale from the old” in literature, which is progressive and wonderful.
Tachibana Fufu’s normal attack is designed with a sense of rhythm, four-stage slash, and the third stage is the key to the combo. The combo setting here is like the “pingze” of Tang and Song poems. If you pause or press for a long time, the fourth attack will continue, just like the slow and fast rhythm of literati when writing. If the rhythm is properly grasped, the charm will be endless. Otherwise, it will be shallow. What’s more interesting is that this third section also has the function of anti-interruption, which shows that the designer is also very ingenious and intends to stabilize the position at the critical moment, which is amazing.
Speaking of the “popcorn pot”, this weapon that sounds quite funny at first is actually a pun. The pot is originally a cooking utensil, and popcorn is originally a snack. The combination of the two is not only relaxed and humorous, but also implies “burning passion”. The fire attribute damage combined with the rotation of the pot has a “bursting” momentum. Ju Fufu dances with the pot in the battle, and his posture is no less than the brushstrokes in calligraphy and painting, which is both powerful and elegant.
The dodge skill is also exquisite. Tap to sprint quickly and become invincible. After the sprint attack, long press to enter the “high-speed rotation” state, which allows movement and damage to the enemy, a bit like the Tang Dynasty dancers spinning non-stop with agile dance moves. Even better is the “heat rotation” point setting, which consumes points to generate fire attribute damage and accumulates “heat” at the same time. When the heat reaches a certain value, it can automatically activate the “linking skills”, making the entire battle like a long novel with layers of progression, compact and climaxing.
The “extreme dodge” of dodge and counterattack is nothing more than icing on the cake, giving players the opportunity to perform gorgeous slashes in front of the enemy, while also being invincible to ensure safe output. This move pays attention to both timing and mentality, just as scholars do not easily attack, but once they do, they will hit hard.
Special skills and enhanced special skills are the mainstay of Tachibana Fu Fu’s skill system. Spinning slashes are combined with falling slashes, and fire damage is layered on top of each other; the special skill of waving the popcorn pot is strengthened, and the firepower is fully opened, and the “heat” and “heat rotation” points are obtained. Once accumulated to the limit, it will surely set off the whole scene. This is like the alternation of the foreshadowing and climax of a good article, which are linked together.
The combination skills and finishing skills are even more clever in design. Ordinary combination skills can launch powerful attacks on the enemy and have an invincible effect, and when they have a certain “heat”, they will automatically launch a more gorgeous “opening pot” skill. The finishing skill always requires reaching the “extreme” noise level, using the popcorn pot to perform two falling attacks, with full firepower, and closing the chapter. The invincibility effect is obtained during the launch of the move, ensuring that the move is completed perfectly, like ancient calligraphy, which is completed in one go and cannot be interrupted.
The support skill series should not be ignored. Quick support skills, parry support skills, and support skill assault all reflect the mutual cooperation and protection between teams. Especially the parry support skills, accumulating imbalance value, and cooperating with the protagonist’s attack, which can be called “the iron must be hard to forge”, with profound meaning.
The core skills reveal the exquisiteness and multi-level design of Ju Fufu’s skills. The popcorn pot not only attacks automatically, but also links with “heat”, so that the whole team gets “hot” status, increasing critical damage and finishing skill damage, and Ju Fufu’s impact will increase linearly with the increase of attack power. This kind of growth and team bonus design makes Ju Fufu not only a single-handed warrior, but also the core of team battle.
The additional ability reflects the importance of team matching. When there is a “strong attack” or “life-breaking” character in the team, Ju Fufu’s noise value limit is increased to 3500, increasing the space for protracted battles. This can’t help but remind people of the “Heroes’ Gathering” in classic literature. Only with reasonable matching can the true qualities of heroes be fully displayed.
Finally, we have to mention the imagery setting, which seems to be accompanied by the elegance of ancient paintings. At the first battle, he gains 100 points of heat, and his combo skills bring high temperature effects, reducing enemy resistance; there are also skill level upgrades, attack power amplification and wound effects, which make the image of Ju Fu Fu not only practical, but also add layers of artistic atmosphere.
In summary, the design of Ju Fu Fu is not only a technical ingenuity, but also a profound interpretation of game strategy, teamwork, and rhythm control. If written in ancient Chinese, it must be “both offensive and defensive, with far-reaching strategies”, and if it is said in modern terms, it is a flame dancer with both gentleness and explosiveness, dancing on the battlefield of the absolute zone zero.
It can be seen that Ju Fu Fu is not only a weapon for players, but also a work of art, carrying the designer’s love and deep thinking for the game world.
