Skill Note
| “ | I thought I blocked the attack, but his next move lunged from a different direction. I always spare enough energy to keep my body protected when counterattacking an enemy. - Lowe

Name: Risk Analysis (위험 부담 제거 법)
Description: Gives a 2x defense buff for 4 seconds, whether successful or not, but the stance duration is shortened by 0.5 seconds.
Tips and Details
- Extremely useful in both PvE and PvP.
- Counter Attack's hit frame only lasts for one second, so timing is vital.
- There is a trick to extending the stance by holding the skill button (the hint is the "!?" reaction Elsword has when you just tap it)
- Counter Attack will block any physical attack and most arrows/bullets/kicks (which get reflected), with very few exceptions such as Explosive Fist. However, it won't counter magical-based skills.
- In PvP, you can use Counter Attack to counter and launch the opponent if they were to attack back while they are knocked down.
Updates
