| • Random drop from Grand Chimera (DD) | |
In Dark Dawn, Anpsi Knuckles are very rarely dropped by Grand Chimeras in Otka Island; defeating a Grand Chimera with an offensive Mercury Djinni will improve the chances of acquiring Anpsi Knuckles. As a Fist-class weapon, the Anpsi Knuckles can only be equipped by the Jupiter Adept Sveta. The Anpsi Knuckles have three unleashes: Force Cannon (フォースキャノン, Force Cannon?), Feral Rush (フェリティラッシュ, Ferity Rush?), and Satellite Crash (サテライトフォール, Satellite Fall?). Force Cannon does Mars-based damage equivalent to a normal physical attack multiplied by 1.97, and may sometimes Stun the target. Feral Rush does Venus-based damage equivalent to a normal physical attack multiplied by 1.6, and may sometimes heal Sveta by an amount equal to the damage dealt. Satellite Crash does Mars-based damage equivalent to a normal physical attack multiplied by 1.97, and may reduce the target's Agility by 50%.
The Anpsi Knuckles are the strongest Fist-class item and the second strongest weapon available to Sveta. The strongest weapon available to Sveta is the cursed Bloody Claw, available in Crossbone Isle. The Anpsi Knuckles possess three excellent unleashes. Satellite Crash and Force Cannon have high damage multipliers, while Feral Rush has a useful healing ability. In addition, the Anpsi Knuckles are available prior to the final dungeon.
However, the Anpsi Knuckles have several drawbacks which should be noted. While they can be used prior to the final dungeon, exploration of Apollo Sanctum requires the use of the Umbra Knuckles. However, the Anpsi Knuckles could be used for post-game material. In addition, Sveta cannot easily exploit the Mars-alignment of Satellite Crash and Force Cannon, as her highest Attack classes are Venus- and Jupiter-based. Finally, Dark Dawn has no RNG methods, so obtaining the Anpsi Knuckles is a matter of chance. However, the overall power means they can be useful if obtained.
