Batman: Arkham Knight Tips

Just though I'd share some tips that people might find useful while I wrap up my new game plus run.

1. If you use grapple onto a railing you can stay hanging instead of vaulting over by holding R1, useful for predator encounters.

2. To quickly vault over railings or ledges while standing double tap Forward A+A, this will cause Batman to do an aerial sommersault.

3. You can initiate a Fear Takedown on non-predator layout by throwing a smoke pellet on enemies, next fly into the smoke. There will often be a prompt to start a Fear Takedown which will instantly take down 3 to 5 opponents depending on upgrades.

4. Minigunners on Predator should be taken down using Explosive Gel + Wall, Smoke Pellet + Environment Takedown, Disruptor + Mine, Remote Hack + Environment Explosive. The Voice Synthesizer will help tremendously. Regular takedown will not work, and it's only recommended to use beat down technique on the last one.

5. For combat challenge maps, try to finish off your free flow by using Blade Dodge Takedown or Ground Pound Finisher. These 2 techniques net you a 100x or 75x multiplier to your score.

6. Ways to take down a Serpent Drone:

• Use the Batmobile's 60mm Cannon and aim it at the sky.
• Glide high enough over the drone, there is a prompt to land on it and use Explosive Gel.
• Use Disruptor to sabotage the gun, then fly into the search light to make it self-destruct.

7. Electric Charge on stun batons will knock down the opponent.

8. If you cannot do a predator takedown on the guy with Detective Vision Scrambler then you can use the Electric Charge on him to fry his Scrambler.

9. Use Search and Destroy Combo on shields, it will make encounters A LOT easier.

10. Use Distrupter on Medics especially on Predator if you are not prioritizing the Medic, this will prevent them from healing downed enemies.

11. Don't forget to take the Freeze Grendade off the table once you finish Panessa Studios.

12. I-Frame animations occurs when you use the Batclaw on electrified buffed enemies, you also get an I-Frame animation when you use an Aerial Attack on guys with shields.
