Unarmed

This article needs to be updated.

Reason: All quarterstaves skills can be used as unarmed with Hollow Palm Technique keystone. See version 0.3.0

Please update this article to reflect newly available information.

Unarmed applies to attack skills that do not use a weapon.

Mechanics

Every character's unarmed attack has a base attack speed of 1.4 attacks per second (0.71 second attack time) and a base critical hit chance of 5%. Its default attack is Punch.

Hollow Palm Technique allows quarterstaff skills to be used while unarmed with no off-hand equipped.
