Batman: Arkham Knight Guide AR Challenges Tutorial Challenges
[1] Throw Counter
Send enemies flying and leave them begging for mercy. Use the new Batsuit’s increased defensive capabilities to unleash five successful Throw Counters to complete the training.
| Unlock Requirements | Acquire new Batsuit |
Very early on, you’ll acquire a new, updated Batsuit. Lucius has set up some training simulations to acquaint you with the suit’s new features. Throw Countering is one of these. When an enemy is about to strike Batman, press toward that enemy plus the Counter button at the last moment to perform a Throw Counter. The enemy will be swept or lifted off their feet and tossed violently aside, more forcefully than by a normal Counter. Not only does this increase damage to the target, but it can also knock over other foes nearby. Throw Counters are also worth twice as many points as standard Counters. This challenge is completed simply by performing Throw Counters repeatedly. Use this simulation to practice timing Throw Counters, and positioning Batman around enemies so his counters hurl them into each other.
There’s no penalty for attempting Throw Counters over normal Counters. The worst that happens is you perform a normal Counter instead.
The would-be attacker you send tumbling away often knocks over one or two of his buddies, as well.
