2. Introduction

The purpose of this FAQ is to let the player have an understanding of each
weapons in the game. They will understand the uses of the weapons, their
damage, and their combo abilities.

3. Weapon System

The Weapon system of "Baldr Force EXE" is a unique one indeed. You have
a lot of weapons at your disposal but most are not activated. You'll have
to use a certain weapon and level up that weapon to a certain level before
another weapon is unlocked. But first, you must "activate" the weapon by
pressing that weapon icon, and it would ask you if you would like to activate
the weapon. Say Yes, and the weapon would say it's "activating". Now the
next time you go into the setup screen, your new weapon would be activated
and ready to be used.
Note: Only one weapon can be activated at a time.

Combo System

The combo system in "Baldr Force EXE" is very simple. When performing an
attack, simply execute another attack and Toru will immediately stop the
current action and perform the next, kind of like "canceling" in fighting
games. This can be continued until the heat gauge is full. However there
is a certain restriction in performing combos, which is you cannot use the
same move twice. Eg. I used tackle in my combo, therefore I cannot use it
again till the current combo ends. Also, all moves can be canceled this
way but not all will hit properly, some hits better when canceled with another
move and some don't so explore and find out their characteristics before
trying to combo them.

EXP System

When a weapon is used to hit an enemy, the weapon itself will gain experience.
The amount of experience gain depends on the number of time the weapon is
used, the total damage it caused, and the
of the enemy. If the enemy guard against the attack, then the exp for that
attack is cut in half based on the total damage dealt. After battle is finished
in an area, a screen showing the experience of the weapon is shown on the
right side of the screen. A bar and three smaller bar on the bottom. When
the bar is full, the word "Level Up" is displayed, and one of the small
bars lights up. This mean the weapon has raised by one level. When all three
bars lights up, the word "Max" is displayed. This mean the weapon has reached
its maximum power, and its full potential is unlocked.
Note: Each weapon always starts at Lv1.

Heat System

The heat gauge shown under your life bar on the bottom left corner has a
special purpose. When you use a weapon, a certain amount of heat is generated,
if another weapon is used that generates heats beyond the bar can handle,
then the weapon cannot be used. If the bar is completely full, then there
is a 4-5 second delay as the bar is reset to empty. You cannot attack at
all during this time so evade the enemy.

Also, each weapon generates a certain amount of heat. As each weapon is
used, an amount of heat is reduced. After a battle, the heat gauge of each
weapon is shown on the left side of the screen. A small or large percentage
of the bar would turn purple. This is the amount of heat deducted; a number
is also shown the amount of heat reduced. When the word "Max" lights up,
it means the weapon's heat has been reduced to the lowest.


4. WEAPON SECTION

There are a total of 63 weapon/attacks, they all fall under 3 categories:
Close-range weapons/attacks, Medium to Long-range weapon, and Hybrid
weapons/attacks.

Close-range weapons/attack involves using punches and kicks, and weapons
such as drills, hammers, talons, etc.

Medium to Long-range/weapon involves the use of guns. They are then split
into two categories: Ballistic and Energy. Ballistic weapons fires solid
shots, such as submachine gun, shotgun, grenade, etc; Energy weapons fires
beams or have the properties of energy in them, such as beam rifles, energy
cannons, Remote Beam Pod, etc.

Hybrid weapons/attacks involves combining different elements to create a
weapon/attack that has two different attributes. For example, the Plasma
Homing Missile is a hybrid of ballistic and energy, the missile itself is
ballistic, but when it explodes the explosion is energy. Another example
is the laser blade; the blade is both a close-range weapon and an energy
weapon.

Below shows the name of the weapon, the type of weapon, its heat when reduced
to the lowest level, a description of the weapon and my comment on it.

1. Punch
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does a light punch at the enemy. The damage done by it
is so weak that it's hardly noticeable.

Comment: Pretty much useless by itself. Just level it up so you can get
the other weapons.

2. Energy Punch
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does the same punch, only encased in energy. It does
slightly more damage than punch.

Comment: Other than the slight increase in power, use the same way as punch.
Again level up to obtain better weapons.

3. Light Uppercut
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does a light version of the heavy uppercut, which only
launches the enemy slightly off the ground.

Comment: can't tell how useful it is as it's quite weak and hard to use
in combos.

4. Uppercut
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does an uppercut that is similar to Ryu's uppercut in
Street Fighter.

Comment: A very versatile move that can create many combos, also allows
you to fly when used correctly.

5. Sweep
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does a low sweep at the enemy.

Comment: Like the punch it's not that good but it does a bit more damage.

6. TKO
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru punches down at the enemy several times quickly, knocking
it down.

Comment: The punches are quick and the damage is ok, its best used in close
range and in a close range combo.

7. Jumping Knee
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does a little hop forward and knees the enemy, upon contact
the enemy is launched into the air.

Comment: Just as good as the regular uppercut, the jumping knee sacrifice
a bit of power in exchange for faster execution.

8. Bounce Kick
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru goes across the screen while kicking, if the kick connects,
he bounces backward.

Comment: Good for offense and defense, a good hit and run move to use.

9. Dive Kick
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru jumps into the air and kicks downward diagonally.

Comment: The kick hits hard, but seeing how toru has to jump into the air
first and dives down at an angle it's really hard to hit without calculating
the correct distance first.

10. Slide
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru slides towards the enemy, upon contact the enemy is knocked
down immediately.

Comment: Don't know if this can be used in combos, useful to knockdown the
enemy right away to set up another combo or escape. Has some lag if missed.

11. Tackle
Type: Body Smash
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru charges forward and smash his body against the opponent.

Comment: What better ways to engage in melee combat with an opponent than
launching your own body again it. The tackle has a very slow start-up, but
during this time, you are almost impossible to knock out of the move by
any attack unless is a really powerful attack or an FC.

12. Air Tackle
Type: Body Smash
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does the same pose for Tackle. Only difference is that
he goes diagonally up in the air, effectively hitting airborne opponent.

Comment: A damaging attack. It can be used to surprise airborne opponent,
or knocking them off the air.

13. Heavy Uppercut
Type: Melee
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru stands still while doing an uppercut motion; the enemy
is knocked high into the air if it connects. At max level, a talon comes
out and hits the enemy hard.

Comment: The move does massive damage but hard to hit with, bigger enemies
can be hit by standing next to them and use it, smaller enemies must jump
or lifted high into the air for it to work.

14. Overhead Punch
Type: Melee
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru jumps into the air, then comes down on an enemy and punches
it hard on the head.

Comment: The best way to use this to the fullest is to use a regular uppercut
first to knock the enemy up, then once they're in the air use this move
and Toru will punch right away and hit, sending the enemy falling down.


15. Drill
Type: Melee
Heat: Low-Medium
Description: Toru turns one of his hands into a drill, which can drill the
opponent for multiple hits. The size of the drill depends on the level of
the weapon.

Comment: Turning opponent into scrap parts is just what the drill does.
It can do moderate or high damage, depending on the opponent's defense.
Some enemies are so durable that repeated drill attack won't break their
guard.

16. Sticky Mine
Type: Timed Explosive
Heat: Low-Medium
Description: Toru rushes forward and sticks mines on an opponent; the mines
then explode after a few seconds.

Comment: yet another mine weapon. But this one is different than the previous
two. The mine is stick on the opponent, which will detonate after a few
second. However, opponent can still guard when the mine detonate.

17. Explosion Palm
Type: Melee/Explosive
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru pushes both of his palms forward, upon contact with the
enemy, the palms creates an explosion that sends the enemy flying across
the screen.

Comment: The palm is quite powerful as it can send an enemy across the screen
when hit; best used in short range or short dash.

18. Stun Rod
Type: Melee/Energy
Heat: Low
Description: Toru stab a rod forward at the enemy, if the rod hit, the enemy
is frozen in place by electricity.

Comment: Good for small and medium enemies as you freeze them in place while
continuing your combo. Not very effective against large enemies or enemies
with heavy armor as the freezing has no effect to an enemy when it's guarding.

19. Twin Talon
Type: Talon
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in two long talons, and strikes forward with it.

Comment: Because of the slow star-up, this is best used to finish a combo
or to break guard, the talons does about the same damage as a tackle.

20. Laser Blade
Type: Energy Blade
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a laser blade and slashes it in a wide arc that
can push the enemy away slightly if hit.

Comment: The blade is not too powerful but isn't completely weak either.
The push effect of the blade can be used to distance yourself from the enemy,
giving you a breather to think of your next move.

21. Hammer
Type: Hammer
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a large spiky hammer and strikes the enemy with
it. The enemy gets knock downed instantly.

Comment: It can compare to the tackle in terms of power, but has a slower
execution time than the tackle. It also good at breaking guards.

22. Lance
Type: Lance
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a big lance and thrust it forward at an angle.

Comment: Has quicker execution than the twin talon while still doing the
same damage; also the lance knocks the enemy a bit into the air.

23. Rising Sword
Type: Melee
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru punches the ground, and a sword comes out and lifts the
enemy into the air.

Comment: The sword can hit multiple times, often used as a finisher for
a short range combo.

24. Rapid Strike Talon
Type: Talon
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a small talon on his right arm. He then dashes
forward, and then strikes the enemy five times.

Comment: A weapon that does good damage and low heat cost. Use it to connect
a combo.

25. Dual Blade
Type: Twin Blade
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in two short swords and slashes forward with both
sword for four times, then he quickly slashes four more times with both
sword.

Comment: The start-up time is slower than the laser blade, but it is just
as powerful. Its best used on ground combos as it has difficulty linking
in air.

26. Twin-Bladed Staff
Type: Blade Staff
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a twin-bladed staff and proceed to hit the enemy
in a 5 hit combo.

Comment: The 5 hit does great damage, but recovery time is bad even if it
connects and finishes.

27. Whip
Type: Chain
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a whip and throws it forward, if the whip hits
an enemy, it will take a bit of damage plus getting pulled toward Toru.

Comment: When you use a long string of moves and knocks the enemy out of
range, use this to pull it back and continue your assault.

28. Morning Star
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a morning star on a chain, then he throws it
out forward, hitting multiple times before retracting. At max level, the
spiky ball attached to the chain is released and explodes on contact like
a bomb.

Comment: This should definitely be used when standing still, as it's very
hard to hit enemy with it if you move.

29. Spinning Morning Star
Type: Melee
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in the morning star, but this time he start to spin
it above his head, causing multiple hits to anyone who gets close.

Comment: This should be used when moving as its makes a potent offensive
weapon to purposely run into enemies.

30. Flip Mine
Type: Projectiles/Explosive
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does a back flip and throws out several mines at the same
time.

Comment: An ultimate escape move. You can attack and escape at the same
time. If this is used during a back dash, toru back flips halfway across
the screen, making it an ultimate escape/attack move.

31. Energy Trap Punch
Type: Melee/Energy
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does a short leap forward and punches the enemy. An energy
field forms after the punch, immobilizing the enemy.

Comment: Great for trapping those fast annoying enemies, and to continue
you combos.

32. Energy Ball
Type: Projectile/Energy
Heat: Low
Description: Toru pushes both of his hands forwards and a blue energy ball
appears, damaging the enemy several times before dissipating

Comment: A good move, considering most energy moves are useful.

33. Pistol
Type: Bullets
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a pistol and fires a single shot.

Comment: The shot does as much as a single punch, since it's a ranged weapon
it's more useful than the punch but there are far better weapons.

34. Grenade Launcher
Type: Explosive
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a grenade launcher and fires a grenade that
explodes upon impact. The explosion lasts several seconds.

Comment: A very simple weapon to use, and an effective one too. The Grenade
will detonate upon impact with the ground or an opponent. A direct hit will
usually result in 50% damage. Splash damage will also damage any opponent
within the area.

35. Submachine Gun
Type: Bullets
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in two submachine guns and fire them in a spread
pattern. The amount of bullets fired depends on the level of the weapon.

Comment: The Submachine Gun is a good weapon in terms of firepower and rate
of fire. Its rate of fire is the second fastest in the game, and firepower
is good enough to take down most enemies in a combo or by itself. When the
action starts to get intense, a constant barrage of fire can be maintained
to pressure the opponent until it drops its guard or dies.

36. Gatling Gun
Type: Bullets
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a gatling gun and unload a burst of armor-piercing
bullets at extreme speed. The differences between this and the submachine
gun are although the submachine gun fires twice the ammo, the gatling gun
fires twice as fast. It takes roughly five seconds for the submachine gun
to unload all ammo, but for the gatling gun, it's empty in roughly three
seconds.

Comment: This weapon trades its maneuverability for rate of fire, as you
can't do strafing runs with it like the submachine gun.

37. Shotgun
Type: Pellets
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a shotgun and fires a shot that launches steel
pellets in a wide fan pattern.

Comment: The shotgun is always known for its lethality in close range. A
close range shot that hits an unguarded enemy can be deadly, especially
in close range combos.

38. Explosion Shot
Type: Exploding Pellets
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a grenade launcher and fires a cannon that
continues to damages the enemy upon impact. After a few seconds, the cannon
explode into a spread of shotgun pellets in a circle pattern

Comment: Good weapon in terms of damage and effectiveness. Can pressure
enemy and damage the ones that is close to the cannon when it explode.

39. Multiple Missiles
Type: Missile/Explosive
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a shoulder launcher and launches multiple small
missiles that fly forward at a random direction.

Comment: It's basically a submachine gun that fires missiles which do more
damage, the random direction of the missiles means its best used closer
to the enemy so most or all the missiles will hit to inflict max damage.

40. Plasma Homing Missile
Type: Missile/Energy
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru launches several missiles from his back, which turns into
a loop then goes to track the nearest opponent.

Comment: The best homing missile in terms of firepower. All missiles hit
successfully will result in 60% damage. Although the range of the missiles
are short, when it explode blue plasma explosion appears, damaging any
opponent caught within. If you are low on life, and there are some enemies
that are close to death, use the PHM to take care of them without putting
yourself in danger.

41. Homing Missile
Type: Missile/Explosive
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a launcher on his shoulder and launches several
missiles, which stays in place to track the nearest enemy, moments later
the missiles home in quickly and hits the enemy.

Comment: These missiles are quite reliable in their abilities to home in
on enemies, only problem is that they're easily destroyed by enemy attacks
and not recommended for use in narrow spaces as the missiles will crash
into walls and be wasted.

42. Proximity Mine
Type: Proximity Explosive
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru launches several mines than explode on contact. If the
mines hit a wall, it sticks on it. Any enemy that gets close to it will
detonate the mine, as well as after a certain amount of time passes.

Comment: A trap weapon, tricky to use like the mine but can be deadly if
used properly. Use it at short range will increase its hit rate and its
effectiveness.

43. Aerial Missiles
Type: Air Missiles
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a projectile launcher then jump in the air and
fires several missiles, which falls downward in an arc.

Comment: Powerful missiles second only to the PHM, the abilities to fire
in the air gives you the advantage to go on the offensive, also a good weapon
to start air combo with.

44. Floating Mine
Type: Energy Mine
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a projectile launcher and fires several energy
mines that have a random movement pattern.

Comment: These mines are different that the ground version. When launched,
the electronic sensor of the mine tells it where to go. The path is always
random each time. Upon impact, a small electric field is generated,
temporally stunning the opponent for a second. Since the mine hover above
the ground, it can also hit some air opponent.

45. Flamethrower
Type: Flame
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a flamethrower and launches blazing heat at the
enemy.

Comment: The flame does lots of hits and damage, also one of the best weapon
to pressure an enemy as it can be used to wear down their guard and then
use a powerful attack to break it.

46. Hand Grenade
Type: Explosive
Heat: Low
Description: Toru throws a hand grenade, which detonates on impact or after
it hits the ground for several seconds.

Comment: This grenade has more range than the launched one, though it might
be a bit hard to make it hit accurately.

47. Mine
Type: Ground Explosive
Heat: High
Description: Toru puts a mine on the ground.

Comment: The Mine is a great weapon is used correctly. Although it generates
a lot of heat, it trades off with three unique points. The Mine itself has
a motion detector; any opponent that steps on it will detonate it. Also
it has a proximity sensor, and any opponent that goes near it will detonate
it. Finally, the Mine has a time delay and will detonate after the time
has expired.

48. Anti-Air Rifle
Type: Energy Bullets
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a shortened rifle and fires multiple energy
bullets up into the air.

Comment: One of the few weapons that can attack air opponent. The only problem
is you have to be right under the opponent to use it effectively.

Low                     Medium  Low

49. Rocket Launcher
Type: Rockets
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a rocket launcher. But instead of holding it
straight and fire it forward, he holds it up and fires in the air like a
mortar. The rocket then flies up in a wide arc before landing and explodes.

Comment: A very hard weapon to level up with. But once it does, it is a
very versatile weapon. However, timing is the key to make the rocket hit.
An easier way to hit with the weapon is to set it on normal dash, then dash
into an enemy and use it, it will always hit, however this only applies
to medium and large enemy, as this trick cannot work with smaller enemies.

50. Anti-Air Beam Cannon
Type: Energy Ball
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in an aerial launcher from his back and launches
a ball of energy that travels diagonally into the air, if an enemy is hit
by it, the ball continues to drag the enemy up until it turns into an energy
field where it continues to hit the enemy until the field collapse.

Comment: Great for those aerial enemies that just won't come down as you
can use this to trap them and destroy them with it or start an air combo.

51. Energy Cannon
Type: Energy Shell
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in energy cannon and launches an energy shell that
travels half of the screen. The size of the shell depends on the level of
the weapon.

Comment: The Energy Cannon is one of the many most powerful weapons in the
game. A direct hit could do 40% damage or more. When it's used as a finisher,
it can do over one bar of damage. Also, any opponent that is hit by it will
be pushed back a bit, guard or no guard, therefore it can create some distance
between you and the opponent. Its drawback is the huge recoil of the weapon
prevents rapid fire. The energy projectile can only reaches up to half screen
length before it dissipate.

52. Energy Trap Rifle
Type: Energy Rifle
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a beam rifle and fires a ball of energy forward,
after traveling some distance the ball turns into an energy vortex that
sucks the nearest enemy towards it and attempts to trap it there until it
dissipate.

53. Beam Rifle
Type: Beam
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in a rifle and fires a beam that travels a long
way across the screen. The thickness of the beam depends on the level of
the weapon.

Comment: The power of the Beam Rifle is super when used on an opponent who
isn't guarding. However, the beam gets weaker as it pushes the opponent
away from the gun. Also, some opponent like Tiger, are extremely durable
against beam fire, which will not even move when hit.

54. Wave Beam
Type: Beam
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru transforms his hand and a wavy beam fires forward.

Comment: Slightly weaker than most beam rifles, but it trades its power
loss for the abilities to go through multiple enemies, meaning several
enemies can be damaged at the same time.

55. Energy Rain
Type: Energy Bolts
Heat: High
Description: Toru raises his hand and moments later multiple energy bolts
rain down from the sky and lands randomly.

Comment: A good weapon to keep the enemy immobile as the rain keeps the
enemy in place, allowing you to dish out more damage to them.

56. Magnetic Field
Type: Field
Heat: Low
Description: Toru does a power-up pose and a magnetic field appears in front
of him. If an enemy is close to the field, it gets flipped into the air.

Comment: Very useful to use those air weapon to the fullest. Good for
approaching hard enemies by flipping them first, then when they're on the
ground start landing those combos.

57. Energy Pillar
Type: Shield
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru points his hand on a part of the battlefield and an energy
pillar come out of the ground.

Comment: One of the two weapons that acts as a shield. The pillar can block
most enemy fire such as bullets, missiles, and beams, and can even cancel
certain attack. It really useful if you like to play defensively.

58. Force Field
Type: Personal Shield
Heat; Medium
Description: Toru does a power-up pose, and a wave resonates around him
for several seconds.

59. Remote-Controlled Fighters
Type: A.I Controlled Fighters
Heat: Medium-High
Description: Toru phase in a shoulder cannon and launches several fighters
that track the nearest opponent and fire.

Comment: The RCF are several A.I controlled fighters that tracks the nearest
hostile and get in close. It then starts to fire its machinegun while circle
strafing the target. What's unique about the RCF is that the bullets,
although not that strong, but can freeze the opponent in place. With quick
rate of fire, the target cannot move at all but to sit there and take all
the damage. The fighters will explode after it uses up its ammo supply or
its shot or it hits an opponent.

60. Remote-Beam Pods
Type: A.I Controlled Pods
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru phase in the shoulder cannon and launches several
satellite-like pods. After a few seconds, the pods will charge up and fire
a beam.

Comment: Like the RCF, the RBP are A.I controlled pod. Unlike the RCF, it
does not get close to the nearest opponent after been launched. Instead,
it stays at the position they were launched and track the nearest target
by turning towards them. After a few seconds, the pods will charge up and
fire a beam similar to the beam rifle but smaller.

61. Bomb Carrier
Type: Air to Ground Explosive
Heat: Medium
Description: Toru launches a small ship that flies high into the air, after
launch the ship releases 12 bombs as it flies straight then crashes to the
ground.

Comment: The bombs are ok in terms of damage, but seeing how the explosion
doesn't drag the enemy with it lower its usefulness by a bit. Still it's
a great weapon for coverage as multiple enemies can run into the explosions
and take damage.

62. Anti-Air Gunpod
Type: Anti-Air Gun
Heat: Low
Description: Toru phase in a shoulder cannon and it launches a small
ship-like pod that travel along the ground, which explodes upon impact.
However, if the pod travel under an airborne opponent, then the pod starts
to fire its rapid-fire machinegun, keeping the opponent in the air for the
duration of the fire.

Comment: Another anti-air weapon. This one quite good, especially for that
opponent who likes to stay in the air all the time. The pod travel at a
fairly slow rate, therefore its best used in close range or an air combo.

63. Explosion Sphere
Type: Energy explosion
Heat: Low
Description: Toru jumps in the air and an energy field surround him as he
focus, then after enough energy is gathered, he unleash the energy in a
powerful explosion.

Comment: this weapon can create many powerful combos if you can find the
right combo for it. Although being an air weapon, you can make it to work
on ground as well.


5. FORCE CRASH SECTION

This section will talk about the Force Crashes (FC) in the game. Force Crashes
are powerful moves that can do tremendous damage to enemies. Each force

6. Misc

Here are some of the various interesting things I noticed while playing
the game.

-       If you do a dash forward and press the short dash button quickly, toru
will dash forward at amazing speed, it's the quickest way to get across
the battlefield.
-       Some energy attacks can lift you off the ground slightly, if you dash
when you're lifted off the ground, toru may fly upward until he disappear
to the top of the screen, and you can stay up there for as long as you
want; but you must hold the direction that you dashed. Let go of the
direction and he'll come crashing down.
