Revision 8

Overview

Force Palm Expertise is a force palm skill in Crimson Desert, available to Kliff. It belongs to the Spirit (Green) branch of the skill tree. Press R3 after Force Palm to perform up to three additional strikes.

Skill Details

How to Acquire

Force Palm Expertise is unlocked by raising Force Palm to Level 3 in Kliff's Spirit (Green) skill tree. The skill becomes available automatically once the prerequisite level is reached. The Spirit cost per use is 25 Spirit.

Effect and Mechanics

Force Palm Expertise allows Kliff to perform up to three consecutive Force Palm strikes by pressing R3 after the initial Force Palm. Each subsequent palm strike deals additional damage, making the full three-hit sequence one of Kliff's most powerful Spirit-based combos.

The triple-strike capability dramatically increases Force Palm's burst damage potential. Each hit in the sequence costs Spirit, so maintaining adequate Spirit reserves through Focus mode is important for getting the full three-hit combo off consistently.

Each of the three consecutive strikes costs Spirit from the same pool, so maintaining adequate reserves through Focus mode is important. The full three-hit sequence is one of Kliff's highest burst damage options in the Spirit tree. Pair it with Force Palm Pulse for even more follow-up damage after the initial palm strike.

Combat Strategy

• Force Palm Expertise rewards heavy investment in the Spirit skill tree. Prioritize Force Palm levels alongside other Spirit skills like Dodge and Counter.

• Enter Focus mode to regenerate Spirit before unleashing the full three-hit combo for maximum burst damage.

• The three consecutive strikes can be used to break through enemy guards and stagger tougher opponents.

• Pair Force Palm Expertise with Force Palm Pulse for even more follow-up options after the initial palm strike.

• Against bosses, time the triple strike during stagger windows to maximize damage output while the boss cannot retaliate.

Tips

• Spirit regenerates while in Focus mode, so pair this skill with Focus for sustained use.
