//Fighting — Type
Fighting focuses on physical dominance, combos, and sustained pressure: knockups, gap-closers, and systems that reward close-range mastery.

▸Mechanics
- ▪Combo Meter: Fighting types have a unique meter that builds with consecutive hits, increasing critical damage per stack.
- ▪Impact Knocks: Heavy Fighting abilities can "Stagger" enemies, briefly preventing them from using movement-based tools.
- ▪Guard Break: Successful Fighting hits on "Shielded" enemies have a chance to bypass a portion of the armor.
▸Design Cues
- ▪VFX: Speed lines, heavy hit-sparks, and trails that follow limbs during attacks. Dynamic character poses.
- ▪SFX: Meaty impact thuds, bone-crunching sounds, and loud "kiai" shouts (Devil May Cry + Titanfall inspiration).
▸Typical Abilities (design template)
- ▪Passive — Martial Mastery: basic melee attacks deal 20% increased damage and grant a small shield on hit.

- ▪Core (2) — Triple Kick: a three-hit combo that increases in damage with each hit.
- ▪Special (3) — Iron Guard: temporarily increase physical resistance and grant knockback immunity.
- ▪Ultimate (4) — Grand Slam: a massive high-impact strike that knocks up and deals heavy damage in a radius.
