Version Info
v1.1 Combo Fixes, a few typos in the previous ver 1/17/2003
added some new combos, under Leopard style and Fu Jow Pai
v1.0 The first release of FAQ 1/13/2003
This is a small guide I decided to put together after spending a morning
figuring out how to be effective with Nitara. She has quite a few Juggles and
combos, that the game does not teach you in the Konquest. Some of these moves
are worth using, while others are not.
I included a translation table with the faq. So this faq could be used
for all the consoles. I've played the ps2 and xbox versions of this game.
As I have time, I will add new finds or fixes to this faq.

Special Moves
Nitara has two basic special moves. The unicorn kick is a good way to make a
quick attack from a medium distance. It does decent damage, when used at the
end of a juggle. The blood spit is a standard projectile.

*Powered Up Combos*
These can be done after using Nejin in the Fu Jow Pai style. This makes Nitara
do about 2.4-2.5 times more damage for a brief period of time, or one combo.
It does a ton of damage when used with a high hit count combo, like her three
branch combo, when a juggle is tossed on the end. I only included a few of the
combos that can be done powered up. I will add more in the next update of this
faq.
