SPECIFIC PERK INFO

Learn about Aesthetic, Attribute, and 'Extra' Perks in SSX 3, including Big Head, Boost Bonus, More Tricky Time, and More Rewinds, and how they affect gameplay.

This guide details the specific perks available in SSX 3, categorized into Aesthetic, Attribute, and 'Extra' Perks. Understanding these can enhance your gameplay experience.

AESTHETIC PERKS

These perks, such as Big Head, Big Hands, and Big Head & Hands, alter your character's appearance by increasing appendage size. They do not affect gameplay but offer humorous visual changes, particularly recommended for Moby or Zoe in specific scenarios for comedic effect and as a nod to the series' humor.

ATTRIBUTE PERKS

Attribute Perks, including Boost Bonus and Trick Bonus, function identically to Mods of the same type and level as your current suit. For instance, a level 8 Boost Bonus Perk on an Epic Suit is equivalent to adding a level 8 Boost Mod to a level 8 suit. It's important to note that if you have both a suit and a board with the same Perk type, you likely won't need to purchase additional Mods of that type, as you may reach the 100-point attribute ceiling solely through your gear's Perks. Currently, the exact point value of Perks is unknown, so it's best to assume they function like standard Mods of the same level.

'EXTRA' PERKS

These perks add to specific gameplay mechanics:

1. More Tricky Time: TRICKY status has a base time limit (10-12 seconds) and a max limit (around 16 seconds). 'More Tricky Time' perks increase the duration within this range and are stackable. This is useful in Trick Events and Races, where extended TRICKY status provides additional seconds of infinite boost.
2. More Rewinds: This perk permanently increases your total number of rewinds. Higher-level suits with 'More Rewinds' Perks offer more additional rewinds than lower-level suits. For example, a level 6 suit might grant one extra rewind, while a level 11 suit could grant three. It is advisable to acquire 'More Rewinds' gear when your character is near their maximum level.

MODS

Mods are temporary boosts for boards or equipment purchased from the store, expiring after a single event. They follow a ranking scheme: Legendary > Epic > Rare > Normal, with higher ranks being more effective but costly. The Mods available in the store change based on your currently equipped equipment and the type of event you are playing. Equipping specific items or playing certain event types can influence the availability of relevant Mods.
