Rage is one of Oongka's default skills in the Spirit (Green) skill tree. It is available as soon as Oongka becomes playable and does not require any Abyss Artifacts to unlock.
When activated during Focus mode, Rage causes Oongka to enter a Super Armor state. While Super Armor is active, Oongka can absorb incoming attacks without being staggered or interrupted, allowing him to continue his offense unimpeded. This makes Rage an essential defensive tool that complements Oongka's aggressive, heavy-hitting playstyle.
The Super Armor granted by Rage does not make Oongka invulnerable; he still takes damage from incoming hits. However, the inability to be staggered means Oongka can trade blows with enemies and bosses while landing his high-damage attacks without interruption. Spirit regenerates while in Focus mode, so the resource cost is partially offset by careful Focus usage.
Rage costs 10 Spirit per activation. Since Spirit regenerates while in Focus mode (hold L3 + R3), you can quickly build up enough Spirit for multiple Rage activations in a single fight. The Super Armor state does not reduce incoming damage, so keep an eye on your health bar and disengage to heal if necessary.
Activate Rage before committing to high-commitment attacks like Rampage or Leaping Smash. The Super Armor prevents enemies from interrupting your wind-up animations.
Rage is particularly valuable during boss fights where the boss chains multiple fast attacks. Instead of dodging, Oongka can power through the hits and keep dealing damage.
Since Spirit regenerates in Focus mode, enter Focus to build up Spirit, then activate Rage when you have enough reserves for a sustained offensive push.
Pair Rage with Dual Wielding Mastery for a devastating combination: absorb incoming hits while dealing amplified damage with dual two-handed weapons.
Be mindful that Rage does not reduce damage taken. Against particularly dangerous enemies, you may still need to disengage and heal if your health gets too low during the Super Armor window.
Rampage: Oongka's forward charge attack, ideal to use while Rage's Super Armor is active.
Dual Wielding Mastery: Lets Oongka wield two-handed weapons in each hand for increased damage.
Leaping Smash: A leap-and-slam attack that benefits from uninterruptible Super Armor.
Focus: The mode that enables Rage activation and regenerates Spirit.
Spirit regenerates while in Focus mode, so pair this skill with Focus for sustained use.
