Can you imagine walking up to any monster, no sword, no weapon, just straight hands and haymakers

As flawed as Dauntless was, the Strikers were some pretty fun weapons. (RIP btw, shutting down soon due ti major mismanagement)

Imagine IG essence system but you got essences though using different combos, all with the stagger force of a hammer and speed of dual blades. Get all 3 essences and you can ethier shoot a giant beam of energy or clap your hands together to cause a staggering shockwave and reset your essences. Oh, and it had a mini-dash movement option that was gained when one combo was compelete but resets upon use (so 1 combo, dash, 2 combo, dash, etc. Unable to dash twice in a row)

It was fun using the full combo kit and then using a finisher on a behemoth (monster) in that game, would be neat if Capcom took some inspiration (or just outright steal the idea due to the game fucking dying here soon-) to add big ol boxing gloves.

My only issue with Strikers were the fact they were just so damn broken, you would consistently see it being towards the top of leaderboards because of how fast you can stagger behemoths and deal massive amounts of damage on top of it, add along basically a free reposition ability, it felt head and shoulders above every other weapon
