Mastering the Flare Knife in Freedom Wars Remastered

Freedom Wars Remastered throws players into intense battles against formidable Abductors. To succeed, utilizing every tool is crucial. The Flare Knife is a powerful combat item that can significantly aid in these encounters. This guide details how to acquire and effectively use the Flare Knife against Abductors.

Acquiring the Flare Knife

The Flare Knife is surprisingly accessible early in the game. Once you achieve Level 003 Code Clearance, visit Zakka in The Warren. Zakka's inventory includes the Flare Knife, purchasable for 3,000 Entitlement Points. Equip it via the Loadout menu in the Personal Responsibility Portal, selecting an available Combat Item slot.

Utilizing the Flare Knife

The Flare Knife's primary function is severing Abductor limbs. This is particularly useful for players favoring Polearms or Heavy Melee weapons, providing a means to sever without switching to Light Melee options. However, remember it's a single-use item; repurchase is necessary for subsequent Operations.

To employ the Flare Knife, target a severable Abductor limb and use your Thorn to grapple onto it. With the Flare Knife equipped, a severing option will appear. A quick-time event (QTE) follows, requiring rapid button mashing to successfully sever the limb. Be aware that Abductors may attempt to interrupt the process by leaping or crashing.

Cooperative play enhances Flare Knife effectiveness. Snare the Abductor repeatedly with teammates to create more opportunities for successful severing.
