How to Forge Weapons and Armor
| NOTE: You only need to craft one part of the Akuma Layered Armor to get the full set! |
Aside from looking like Akuma from Street Fighter, wearing this layered armor also modifies the voice of your hunter to sound like Akuma - regardless if you chose the Male or Female Hunter!
| Sheathed | Unsheathed |
|---|---|
 Red Aura is not present |
 Red Aura is present |
Since the Sword and Shield is invisible when wearing the Akuma Layered Armor, you might get confused if your weapon is sheathed or not. The best way to know is to check if there is a red aura around Akuma.
If there is none, your weapon is sheathed. If there is an aura, your weapon is unsheathed.
You do not need to be an SnS user to see Akuma perform his version of Hadoken called Gohadoken. You can easily see this move when performing a kunai throw during hunts!
Throwing some knives and kunais while airborne will execute a Zanku Hadoken!
Doing a ZL + A when Metsu Shoryugeki is equipped as a switch skill will look like the Goshoryuken attack!
The parry animation for Metsu Shoryugeki also looks like Akuma's parry called Rakan! Gotta love the details!
After performing a combo then pressing ZL + A turns the switch skill Windmill into a Tatsumaki Zankukyaku!
For more guides on SnS combos and move sets see the link below.
Sword and Shield Switch Skills
When you finish a quest wearing the Akuma Layered Armor, the quest complete screen will showcase the might and power of Akuma!
He performs the pose he does after executing a Critical Art in Street Fighter V towards the end! Great detail there CAPCOM!
