Pounce

A Koo node LaserBolt unlocks and then upgrades repeatedly on camera. He says the repeated upgrades raise its assassination chance and reads the figure aloud as somewhere between 50 and 60 per cent. That is one creator narrating his own screen through machine captions, so it is quoted here with its source rather than restated as a stat, and what "assassination" triggers on is not described.

When to use it

The only Koo node anyone has published a number for, which makes it worth opening your own tree to check rather than worth trusting. LaserBolt's route is Guard and Pounce first, with Pounce upgraded as far as it goes; IGN's route spends the same points on Taunt and Bloom Art mods instead. Neither creator has tested the other's.

Builds using this

No build on this site currently lists this skill. It is documented here because a source describes it, not because a creator built around it.
