So I just got Body Change...

[Dinkus]

Would it be hilariously obnoxious to make a character specifically to abuse this in PvP? Basically just give them Body Change and the skill that wounds you and either leave the other skills blank or fill them with useless crap abilities (maybe Solar Flare could be a good set up for Body Change?)

Could be really fun, assuming it works the way it does in the story mode. You do literally become the opponent's character (with all of their skills), right?

cant they then use body change back on you? since they have your moveset? it is funny though...

Yeah, which is part of the fun, but the point would be to get your HP low before the swap so you can finish them off quickly.

Don't they lose Body Change when they get your character? I've yet to test it myself, so keep that in mind, but so far I've been told they are pretty much locked in it once switched.

Wait, really? In past DBZ games you could always use it if someone playing Ginyu switched with you. That seems kinda broken that they'd be locked into it.

Things to note:

Body change has a shotgun-lower mid range, and is extremely noticeable with the hand positioning. When the other guy sees that with the ultimate portrait, smart players will run like hell. You could surprise the hell out of them though if they don't see it coming as Ginyu is kind of obvious.

Body change is not blockable by a regular block.

Body change is a one directional purple beam attack that shoots at the victim in a straight line. Edit: I think it has a good hit/prediction chance? As in, the beam shoots to where you are going. I think it can miss though?

Enemies can also use body change to reclaim the body back, however this requires Ki.

Awesome, thanks for the info! I don't image Solar Flare stun lasts long enough to hit them with Body Change before they have control of their character again, does it?

no but time stop might... it lasts a bit longer as you can charge it to last longer, i'm actually curious if you can use this to steal the broken SSJ's during PQ's and use them to spam crap out of ultra's to kill the rest...

[Elerium-115]

If I recall Body Change is about 2-3 seconds before the swap, Solar Flare is a good 2-4 second stun. It's something to test out either way.

Oh, also one thing to add: Body Change causes a knockback on the character close to Ginyu, who then promptly get hit by the beam.

it will warn you that body change is limited to 1v1 only.

[Elerium-115]

Pretty much that, on a related note a competant Ginyu can go toe to toe with SSJ4's. The captain's skillset is actually pretty damn good even without the change. Plus the fear of being swapped means players do not want to initiate against him that much.

[Sabin Stargem]

Would the Para-Para Dance be a good addition to a body-changer's skillset?

[Captainmar]

How do you get body change; I know some mentors require you to get a specific item, skill, or z soul. Or is body change the final skill you get from ginyu? He keeps telling me about using body change and his friendship is maxed but I can't go any further, could it be a level issue (I am level 29 right now)?

[Dinkus]

It is the last ability he gives you. It's an Ultra not a Super, so check that in case you haven't.

[Captainmar]

I think it was because I hadn't used some skill points from a level up, after I did he gave me the option to take the last challenge

[DragonFirePlays]

What if i want body change and i am like a level 45, I can't find ginyu anymore
