Qwark28 if your set on a Mishima as your main I suggest Jin. Kaz requires high fundamentals, he has a lot of unsafe moves, and you can't rely on any of his pokes. Jin has safe strong mids you can poke with, a decent low game, and his CH game is amazing.

The EWGF ( Electric Wind God Fist ) command is :r-N-:qtr+2. The button (2) must be pressed within two frames of pressing df. It's better than the WGF because it's faster, safe on block, offers a small advantage on block, and extends combos for greater damage.

I learned it when I used to play T4 years ago. It's a just frame so it will take practice and patience, but it's not impossible.
i know everything about it,i just wanna know what the learning process was,did something help you do it better?common mistakes,easiest way to input,etc.

I'm dead set on using Kaz,then Jin.

Well the first thing is the misconception of how fast you need to do it. You dont have to do it super fast at all. You just have to press 2 within two frames of pressing df.

The learning process is hard because it's just frame. Practice, practice, practice makes you do it better. Pressing :qtr and 2 at the exact same time is the easiest way. It's actually possible to do EWGF with :r-N-:d,:qtr+2, although it's easier by skipping :d.

1/30th of a second and you don't have to do it fast?

i can't help thinking that since it takes ages and a lot of concentration to do that it's gonna be like that all the time,does this eventually become muscle memory?

How long does it generally take?weeks?

It took me a few days to finally start getting it consistently. It will take weeks to do it in real matches unfortunately.

Wait, regular Jin still has EWGF? I could've sworn they removed all of his Mishima style moves after Kazuya returned for good in T4 (which is why he was poorly tested and had buckets of dumb shit in that game too).

Anyway, I just got my DLC, Kunimitsu and A.Ogre are working fine (as does his WR 3,3 corner infinite #Kappa), but I got the bikini pack too and the costumes aren't showing up? How do I get them? Hell, how do you customize at all? I keep going in it and it says there's nothing to buy lol..

Wait so do you only get the dlc characters if you preordered? Of so when will they be released to everyone?

Jin doesn't have EWGF per se, but his two CD punch attacks have electric versions. EWHF, or eCD+2, has the on-block properties of EWGF, while eCD+1 launches higher.

To customize, you have to go to "customize" then select the character you want to customize. Then you got to one of the empty slots availible (there are more than 2, you just have to side scroll to see the other empty slots: so you can make multiple customized characters). Then you can buy items (you get money from online matches, arcade, and ghost mode to buy these items). More than likely you where selecting a slot that was already filled, and that's probably why you couldn't buy items.

When you buy the items, you then have to equip them to your character, then you can save your costume. The bikini outfits are also in equip as well, you have to side scroll the equip menu to see them if I'm not mistaken. Here's a customization guide if what I'm saying doesnt help out:

I literally just stumbled across that video when you posted that lol, thanks for taking the time to explain and legitimizing my #Kappa anyway :)

Yes (although I procured them with a slyer method), and they'll be made public in December

Ah, interesting. Man, I'm so out of touch with post-T4 characters, it's like a Deadly Alliance player trying to grind Armageddon lol.

probably a stupid question but do you notice that you're doing something wrong or do the EWGF's suddenly appear as you're pressing the inputs over and over?kinda getting it way more often and i really don't see what i'm doing different from my point of view,seems to me like i randomly hit the frames (im practicing on SFXT since i dont have TTT2 yet)

do you consciously do it different or do you do it when you just press 2 fast?

It's significantly easier to do in SFxT. I usually have trouble getting it off in open space on 1p side only. I can do it perfect from 2p side, but I can also do it perfect after block strings on either side.

I've decided to put Kazuya on the shelf for now. I need to make general progress in this game without having to worry about execution difficulties. Speaking of which, what is Bryan Fury's execution like? I found a pretty big TA combo with him and Feng and I want them to be my primary team.

Combo mid-screen: BRYAN ws2~2~5 (tag) FENG U2-B! BRYAN B214 FENG F34, B+1+2 (108 damage)
Combo corner: BRYAN ws2~2~5 (tag) FENG U2-B! BRYAN B214 FENG 3~4,3 (107 damage)
