Guide - Bojutsu Bojutsu combos

[Gh0sty]

UPDATED 08/01/15

- Deleted old 2 bar corner combos and replaced with the ForeverKing corner combos
- Added the "221" starter for all combos
- Replaced all meterless and 1 bar CORNER combos with the "34 343~db3" combo path from @Ayase Chihaya (increased damage and consistency)

Spoiler

As someone who is trying to pick up Bojutsu Kung Jin, I found it frustrating trying to navigate the character forums looking for the most up-to-date combos. It seems like there isn't a singular thread with all of the information presented in a concise and organized way, which is why I made this one. All combos listed are the most damaging variations I could find of the 5 most common starters. I'm new to this character so please let me know if I missed anything, or if something needs to be updated.

Disclaimer: I'm not claiming credit for any of these. If you found something listed here and you'd like to be attributed, just let me know.

[ForeverKing]

This is a better 2 bar combo:

111~MB db3, 4~ MB db1, dive kick, NJP, 34~bo swing

Should be 47% I believe

Awesome. I'll confirm the damage % and add it to the OP. Thanks.

EDIT: tested and added to OP

 

[Train]

awesome..thanks for this

 

[BiggRognvald]

Off of raw NJP you can get 32% with NJP, run, 34, iadk, run, 34~db3... Sorry if the notation is off

You're absolutely correct; 32%. I'll replace the existing NJP combo in the OP. Thanks

 

[medleyoz]

Wow this great. Just thought I'd try out Kung Jin today for some fun and this was super helpful to have a concise guide.

Also just tested (I'm sure it's already common knowledge but I'll post it anyway) if you use 221 as the starter it's a 7 frame startup so is 2 frames faster than 111. You get 40% with 1 bar 221~EX db3 run 34 iadk run 34~db3 . 221 doesn't combo into bf4 though.

Was just looking for the fastest start up punish combo.

 

[Ayase Chihaya]

Forever kings corner combo does 47% if you do the 221 start up, might add that to op

Oops. I forgot to add the the 221 starter...I'll add it to all applicable combo paths

Yep. I'll add that along with the other 221 starters. Thanks

 

[StiggyWiggs]

In the corner you can do starter 111~exdb3, 34 343~db3 for 41% and it's super easy to pull off. 221 starter does 42%. Pretty sure all starters do 1% more actually. You can also do these after bf4 and get the same damage as you posted in the op if you're going meterless!

 

[medleyoz]

Any trick to the corner combos? I'm struggling to connect the 34 34 and if I do hit them they will fall out of the bow swing at the end before the last hit. I'm trying time the NJP then U1 as early as possible but still struggling.

Don't know, I get it easily in practice - online it's harder though.

A combo that is a lot easier and does more dmg with b214 starter, and same dmg for the rest is:
b214 - bf4 - 34 - 343 - db3 = 37%
111 - bf4 - 34 - 343 - db3 = 36%
b14 - bf4 - 34 - 343 - db3 = 33%
f34 - bf4 - 34 - 343 - db3 = 33%

It doesn't look as swag though

 

[medleyoz]

Yeah that's what I thought just need to practice the timing more. Online I think I would stick to doing NJP U1 34~db3 though and sacrifice the 3% damage for the consistency. Now I just need to work on timing the midscreen combo's online as I hit them 95% of the time in practice but am always dropping the 34 into the divekick.

Why not use the combos I posted? Same damage (even more) and a lot easier, but if you insist on that combo, replace the first 34 for 11 or just do 343 db3.

Yeah I will but like I said I was struggling to get the second repetition of 34 to connect (like 1/10 times) so need to work on the timing there when I get a chance to actually make that link. Will try the 11 or 343 db3 like you said as well. Cheers.

f34 - bf4 - 34 - 343 - db3 = 33%

So after a quick check, it's become obvious that the combos you posted are superior from the perspective of both damage and consistency. I'll replace all corner combos with the 34 343~db3 path. Good find and thanks for participating

Go to training stage and look for the first blue line on the wall. If you hit the first rep of 34 when the dummy's body is parallel to the line you should be able to hit the second rep a lot easier. Hope this helps

 

[xInfra Deadx]

You should check 2,2,1/Swat combos again...I don't think they link together last time I messed with this character.

You are correct, its not an actual link. The opponent can block after 221. Good looking out bro. OP edited

Cheers for the tip will give it a go later on today.

You can use 22 into boswat (bf2) for a punish string ill check the dmg when i get home

 

[GAV]

How hard could any of these combos be seriously? If they were any easier, they would do themselves.

Its 31% using the rc combos so it not even worth it lol

 

[Carmine]

you should add in the corner that you can do

221~EX bd3 34 343~db3 = 39%
111~EX bd3 34 343~db3 = 38%
b214~EX bd3 34 343~db3 = 38%
b14~EX bd3 34 343~db3 = 35%
f24~EX bd3 34 343~db3 = 35%

for a low switch up which can catch people off guard
and if you just catch them with EX bd3 34 343~db3 =32%
