    HE's

    AFAIK, there's only one High Elbow in the game: Vanessa's Lightning Elbow [MT] f+P+K.

    I used to think Kage's b+P was HE too, but in fact it's not. The game treats it as a HP attack class. The fact that Jacky can auto-parry Kage's b+P proves this, since the auto-parry only works against HP and MP. Similarly, with Vanessa's hand hold in DS -- she'll catch Kage's b+P, even though she can only catch HP and MP. It's the same with Wolf's Elbow Butt, b+P, which is another elbow attack that hits high, but is treated as a HP attack class.

    Just to consolidate all the attack classes and abbreviations used on the command lists, this is what I'm using:

    HP = high punch
    MP = mid punch
    LP = low punch

    HK = high kick
    MK = mid kick
    LK = low kick

    EL = elbow
    HE = high elbow (special case)
    KN = knee

    SM = somersault attack
    CR = crescent kick (a high/mid circular or spinning attack)
    SW = sweep (a low circular or spinning attack)

    Re: HE's

    Thanks for clearing that up Myke.

    You can find a similar abbreviation guide for the virtuaproject movelists by clicking on the "legend" link at the top of the page when you are looking at any particular character's list.
