Fi is good, you need to always have her bar filled up though.

Try not to do the extremely long finisher very much, it wastes way too much time.

There's a button that makes her turn into a sword that fills the bar all the way up. I don't remember which one does it.

just pressing strong attack fills up the bar and it goes down over time, just fill it up every now and then and use her b>y combo to juggle if you have to fight generals.

but yea she blows

That's X with the default controls.

For Fi her best move by a longshot is the one where she turns into a sword and spins in the air. I think it's like YYYYYX. It's really good at clearing crowds and damaging giant boss weak points.

For every character you should buy all their combo badges ASAP as well as the badges that make them damage weak points more. Those are by far the most vital ones IMO.

Honestly, Fi kinda sucks but there are worse characters. Zant in particular is my least favorite because he just doesn't have any good moves. Every single one of his moves seems to have a long rear end animation, no invincibility frames, and deals poo poo damage.

i use the zelda controls so i attack with b and combo with y but anyway

okay i see how the sword moves work, kinda annoying how fi needs to stop sliding along the ground COMPLETELY for it to activate and then it fucks up my camera.

also another annoying think is her hookshot move really loving blows a lot of the time i use it she doesn't even hit the enemy

is that the one where theres like red green blue orbs that she absorbs because yeah that's the best one.

I didn't really use the weapon attacks much but the Arrow one is good because it will momentarily stun enemies so you can do that when their weak point gauge is hittable for a little extra time. The best thing to do in general though is to launch them during their weak point vulnerability because they can't start blocking in the air. Fi's launcher is YX, I believe.

Whenever you try out a character experiment with just their strong attack uncomboed. For several characters its a neat ability or a gimmick that gives them a lot more power.

I really hate how she has to move around as she attacks because i keep running into fire and poo poo and im trying to get a good damage taken rank...

Oh a pro-tip is that blocking is actually really good in this game. You can block most really annoying attacks. Not Volga's for some reason, though.

her combos have lots of invincibility frames and she's pro at dodge cancelling, what adventure mode map is it?

It might be the one where you have to fight Volga and Agorok at the same time, which I thought was the hardest Fi map by a landslide.

Aerolfos are giving me a LOT of trouble. normally, when you hookshot one from out of the air they get grounded and are immediately vulnerable. HOWEVER for some reason this does not work for Fi. when she hookshots them they don't fuckin care

then I have to fight The Imprisoned and it's insanely hard not to take damage fighting him because Fi won't stop loving moving.

i loving hate this character she is so annoying to use. all the disadvantages of epona without the ridiculous loving damage that epona does

just use special attacks to waste the imprisoned's toes, if you have the badge that gives you two special bars or a couple of triforce shards laying around to stock up with it makes him more tolerable, and he's big enough that fi can just sidle up to him and combo without sliding off; he's still a bitch tho.

if you don't have her upgraded weapons I would recommend beelining for them as it makes a big difference.

i think i'm just going to have to try to A rank this later because not taking damage is seriously difficult with a character that won't sit still, however i am doing much better now as her

ok thanks for the help imp zone goodbye!!
