1-2 Combo

1-2 Combo (ロンブショルダー, Ronbushorudaa^?, "Rhomb Shoulder") is a hand-to-hand strike arte in the Tales series, thus far exclusive to Bruiser Khang from Tales of Destiny.

Arte Description and History

In spite of its name, the move is actually a series of three punches, the last of which is an uppercut that launches the enemy into the air. In the PlayStation 2 version of Tales of Destiny, aerial combos can be chained from this attack, as it can launch enemies high into the air while simultaneously allowing the user to gain the advantage of height. Furthermore, this arte can be chained with Ikasu Hip to travel far distances quickly on the battlefield, providing significant mobility for Khang to counter his slow movement speed on the ground during battle.
