Freedom Wars Remastered: How To Get & Use Flare Knife

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 valuable asset, and this guide details how to acquire and effectively use it.

Acquiring the Flare Knife

The Flare Knife is surprisingly accessible early on. Once you achieve Level 003 Code Clearance, visit Zakka in The Warren. This vendor sells a variety of items, including the Flare Knife, for 3,000 Entitlement Points.

Equip the Flare Knife via the Loadout menu in the Personal Responsibility Portal. Select an available Combat Item slot; your Flare Knife will appear in the list if purchased.

Utilizing the Flare Knife

The Flare Knife is a reusable combat item specifically designed for severing Abductor body parts. This is beneficial for players who prefer Polearms or Heavy Melee weapons, offering a limb-severing option without needing Light Melee weapons. However, remember it's a single-use item per operation; repurchase is necessary for subsequent battles.

To use it, lock onto a severable Abductor part and use your Thorn to grapple onto it. With the Flare Knife equipped, a sever option appears. A quick-time event (QTE) follows, requiring rapid button presses to successfully sever the limb. Be aware that Abductors might interrupt the process by leaping or crashing.

Cooperative play enhances the process. Snare the Abductor repeatedly with teammates to significantly simplify the severing QTE.
