Specialty

Thanks to the modifications done on the Nasod Arm, Veteran Commander is able to tolerate overheating much better, allowing him to execute even more explosive flame-based attacks. He now possesses abilities that leave flames on the ground, burning enemies who walk through the scorching ground.

Background

The Nasod arm may be capable of massive destruction, but Raven is alarmed that it is overheating far too often now. The mercenary needs to get it fixed before it fails him in battle, and before long, he approaches the Ponggos for their expertise.

They promptly send him out to collect rare materials for the repair: Ignis's arm that blasts out nuclear flames, the sturdy dark steel of Durahan Knight, and enchanted, mass-altering golem fragments. Gathering all these from such huge, dangerous monsters is clearly not simple, but Raven succeeds nonetheless.

The Ponggos complete the Nasod arm enhancement, and with further training, Raven becomes the distinguished Veteran Commander.

Replaces the original    combo. Instead of blasting flames, shoot out an explosive shell, and continue the combo with a barrage of shells at a 45° angle. Repeatedly pressing the X key cause overheat and fire more shells, however pressing the X key only twice will fire the first shell and then another with no overheat. The first and last shell fired will leave a trail of fire momentarily when they impact onto platforms.

File:VCCombo3.jpg Hit and Run / Roll and Grab

Attack three times with your sword, then do a backstep, firing 1 shot with your arm and another shot, knocking targets down. Alternatively, if holding the directional button, you will do a front roll past the enemies and then grab them with your arm.

Trivia: The last hit of "Roll and Grab" is similar to Breaking Fist's animation. In the original teaser trailer of Weapon Taker, it showed that the concept of the Roll and Grab combo was supposed to be rolling behind targets and slashing them.

Tips and Details


Trivia

  • Whenever Veteran Commander's arm overheats, it will show as his arm 'vents' opening, and makes a sound when it closes.
    • While equipped with Ice Burners which change Raven's Nasod Arm, the 'vents' from Veteran Commander's arm will still appear.
  • The overheat animation used after going into overheat differs between combos and skills originally learned by Weapon Taker and ones learned by Veteran Commander. Weapon Taker will swipe his arm inward while Veteran Commander will typically swipe his arm away.
  • During Veteran Commander's release event in NA/UK, when summoning his NPC Card, the angel from the KR pre-release event appears and fights for them. However, this didn't happen in his pre-release event.
  • Veteran Commander's design and concept seems to based on crows. This is shown in his Nasod arm, weapon, uniform, and accessories bearing crow-like features.
  • In the Lock Down Veteran Commander skill cut-in, Raven's right eye closes, as if he's taking aim.
  • Investigation of official document shows this class was initially called "크루얼 파이터 (Cruel Fighter)".
