About this mod

An alternate moveset for Project EQUINOX's overhaul of Riku, inspired largely by Cloud Strife and his Punisher mode in FFVII Remake.

So, I've had this idea kinda in the back of my head for a while.
In FFVII Remake, Cloud has two distinct approaches to combat: Operator Mode and Punisher Mode.
While I feel like both modes could easily be applicable to Riku's kit, considering he's basically got a greatsword for a Keyblade...
Punisher Mode especially works for him. Not only because it's fast and it hits hard, but even the stance is a dead ringer for Riku.




To activate Punisher Mode, press the Triangle/Y/top face button on your controller,
while Riku is standing idle and is locked on to someone or something.
Also, you must have the Braveheart Keyblade equipped to use this.

A word of advice: equip the Re:Mind combo modifiers.
Riku's base attacks do perform differently than his usual kit from KH3 proper, at least on the ground...
But he's a little slow. And while I am considering doing updates on this mod, it's a little early for me to tell if I'll update the base.
So yeah, you wanna go into fights as Punisher Riku? Make sure you've got those modifiers on.

Many thanks to everyone who's helped me out with getting this moveset to be the beast that it is.
Thank you to Trashman, Temjin707j, Yozora_Nohara, IevanDumal, Sora101Ven, Kurasanick, DavidRM99, dh, Trueblade Seeker, and Chris Shade.

Will I make another one of these? Maybe, maybe not. We'll have to see.
