How to use them?
The Karakuri Katana is a versatile weapon that can deal damage up close with both light and heavy attacks. Light attacks are fast and agile, making them perfect for taking out enemies quickly. Heavy attacks, on the other hand, are slower but pack a punch and can knock enemies back, giving you more time to dodge incoming attacks. One of the strengths of the Karakuri Katana is its ability to chain together combos. By using light and heavy attacks in quick succession, you can create a series of strikes that deal devastating damage to enemies. To initiate a combo, try using a light attack to start and follow up with a heavy attack. After the heavy attack lands, follow up with another light attack to keep the combo going.
The Karakuri Katana has a Weapon Gauge that can be charged by dealing damage to enemies. Once the gauge is full, you can activate an Unleashed State that enhances your attacks and makes them more powerful. During this state, your attacks will deal extra damage and knock back enemies further, making it easier to deal with multiple foes at once. When you have a full Weapon Gauge, you can also use the Karakuri Katana’s Special Attack. This powerful move deals massive damage to enemies and can be used to break through their defenses. Be aware that the Special Attack uses a large amount of stamina, so make sure to use it strategically. And that’s a wrap on the list of all Karakuri Katanas in Wild Hearts and how to use them.
