Primary attack does a fast punch while the secondary attack delivers a massive explosive punch after charging it. :''Details: Hold right-click to charge. Charged attack causes a frontal explosion that does AoE damage.'' ===Advantages=== *Moderate attack rate *Critical damage when the target receives a direct hit *Able to perform explosive attacks *Knockback affects more than one enemy *Short change *Moderate knockback power towards zombies *Explosions can penetrate through walls *Explosions can cause damage to long ranged targets *Easily obtainable ===Disadvantages=== *Cannot do one-hit kill (unless you fully charged the gauntlet) *Has delay when using the secondary mode *Explosive attack's damage decreases over range ==Release date== <tabber> RED= *South Korea: 6 December 2012. *Taiwan/Hong Kong: 7 December 2012. *<s>Japan: 20 December 2012.</s> *<s>Singapore/Malaysia: 11 September 2013.</s> *Indonesia: 2 January 2014. *CSN:Z: 23 September 2014. *<s>Vietnam: 26 March 2015.</s> |-| BLUE= *South Korea: 24 July 2014. *Taiwan/Hong Kong: 5 August 2014. *China: 6 August 2014. *<s>Japan: 6 August 2014.</s> *Indonesia: 7 January 2015. *<s>Vietnam: 4 June 2015.</s> </tabber> ==Tips== ; Overall *The rate of fire/attack speed will increase if the player hits the target, similar to the [[Tomahawk]] and [[Wakizashi]]. ; Zombie Scenario *The explosive attack can kill a large group of zombies, more than the [[SKULL-9]]. Moreover, you can knock away strong zombies like [[Deimos]] or [[Ganymede]]. *Do not ever try to use it to fight [[Venom Guard]]s, they will damage and knock the player back when he/she kills them at very close range. *Its A mode can deal 350 damage per hit to [[boss]]es. While B mode can deal 2500 ~ 15000 damage per hit. ; Zombie : The Union *The explosive attack is enough to kill a human, a skilled or lucky player can kill 2 or 3 enemies with just one hit. ; Zombie Giant *Deals 1000 damage for every hit with A mode, deals 3000 damage for each attack with B mode. *Use A mode when the enemy is doing a special attack. If combined with a great evasion, it could kill an enemy less than 30 seconds. *Use B mode to finish off dying enemies. ==Tactics facing BALROG-IX users== *BALROG-IX users are very fast, powerful and dangerous with their knuckles, it only requires 1-2 hit to the body in normal matches to take you down. So, confront them quickly but with caution. *Keep an eye on their weapon, because most BALROG-IX users will use B mode first instead of A mode. Use this as an advantage. *Take note that BALROG-IX's range is quite short. Use this as your advantage. Keep your distance from them as B mode's damage decreases over range. *Remember to buy [[Kevlar]] and [[Helmet]] to prolong your life. *In [[Zombie Giant]], if you are chosen as a boss, try to find and attack anyone who equips BALROG-IX near you first as he/she could kill you quickly or reduce your HP greatly. ==Gallery== <tabber> Original= <gallery widths="200" spacing="small" captionalign="center" bordercolor="transparent"> File:Balrog9_viewmodel.png|View model File:Balrog9_charging.png|Ditto, charging File:Balrog9decoder30p.png|30 [[Code Decoder]]s and [[Advanced Code Decoder]]s package File:Balrog9codeaset30p.png|30 [[Code A Decoder]]s and [[Code A Decoder]]s package File:Balrog9coupon.png|BALROG-IX [[Reservation Ticket]] Balrog 9.png|[[Gerard]] with BALROG-IX File:Balrog9_gerrard.png|Ditto 4620733667684122897.jpg|In-game screenshot 20121218ff_8.jpg|Ditto, the explosion BL9CRAFT.jpg|Obtained through [[Craft]] system 526006_432056303530777_1992640406_n.png|World model Untitledewq.png|South Korea poster bl9twrsl2.png|Taiwan/Hong Kong poster File:Balrog9_taiwanposter.png|Ditto, resale File:Balrog9_chinaposter_resale.png|China resale poster balrog9_sea.jpg|Singapore/Malaysia poster File:Grandresellsuper600x300.png|Ditto, resale balrog9_requiem_industry_beastmode_indonesia poster.jpg|Indonesia poster File:RESKULOG.png|Ditto, resale File:Sieuvukhi_606x295.png|Vietnam poster File:Balrog9_hud.png|HUD icon </gallery> [[File:Counter-Strike Online BALROG-IX Gameplay|425px|left]] [[File:CSO Balrog 9|425px|left]] [[File:Counter-Strike Online THANATOS-9 & BALROG-IX Test|left|425px]] {{Clear}} |-| BLUE= <gallery widths="200" spacing="small" captionalign="center" bordersize="none" bordercolor="transparent"> File:Balrog9_blue_viewmdl.png|View model File:Balrog9_blue_viewmdl_bcs.png|Ditto, charging File:Balrog9_blue_worldmdl_hd.png|World model File:Balrog9_blue_korea_poster.png|South Korea poster File:Balrog_blue_taiwan_poster.png|Taiwan/Hong Kong poster File:Balrog9_blue_china_poster.png|China poster File:Balrog_blue_japan_poster.png|Japan poster File:Balrog_Blue(1).png|Vietnam poster balrog9blue_ingamess.jpg|In-game screenshot </gallery> [[File:Counter Strike Online China BALROG BLUE Series Trailer-1|left|425px]] [[File:【希望視頻】韓服CSO 藍色影武者(Balrog-9 Blue) 武器測試(1080 HD) 2014 07 26|425px|left]] {{Clear}} |-| Poison Paint= <gallery widths="200" position="center" spacing="small" captionalign="center" bordersize="none" bordercolor="transparent"> balrog9poison viewmodel.png|View model File:Fabextrabalrog9setweaponpaintpoison.png|Confirmed Set File:B1579poisontwhk.jpg|Taiwan/Hong Kong poster File:Balpoisonchina.jpg|China poster </gallery> [[File:China Trailer - Mirage, BALROG Poison Paint, PP 19 Bizon|left|425px]] {{Clear}} |-| CSO WC= <gallery widths="200" position="center" spacing="small" captionalign="center" bordersize="none" bordercolor="transparent"> balrog9wc viewmodel.png|View model balrog9wc viewmodel2.png|Ditto, charged balrog9wc hud.png|HUD icon </gallery> </tabber>[[File:Balrog9_draw.ogg]] Drawing sound [[File:Balrog9_slash1.ogg]] Slashing sound [[File:Balrog9_hit1.ogg]] Wall impacting sound [[File:balrog9_charge_finish1.ogg]] Pre-charging sound [[File:Balrog9_charge_attack2.ogg]] Charged attack sound ==Trivia== *This is the fourth dual-wielded [[melee]]. The first is [[Dragon Tail]] followed by [[Dual Nata Knives]] and [[Dual Wakizashi]]. *This is the first melee weapon that can perform an explosive attack. *This is the first pair of gauntlets in ''[[Counter-Strike Online]]'', making it also the first melee weapon to actually involve the user's fists instead of just the blade-made weapon itself. The second one is [[Papin]]. *When charging the BALROG-IX in [[Contact]] chapter, the user can walk through the blower corridor sections easily. It also allows players to walk with no speed reduction in the swamp of [[Decoy]] chapter. This exploit has been fixed in the following update. *It shares the same wall impact sound with [[SKULL-9]], [[Green Dragon Blade]], [[Ruyi Stick]] and [[CROW-9]]. *A red muzzle flash which is similar to BALROG-V, will appear when the gauntlets are fully charged. Also, the horns of Balrog will fold in while the claws will appear from the gauntlet. *Tattoos don't work on this weapon due to a texture bug. This also applies to [[Alice]]'s metal arena suit. *There is a bug when charging the BALROG-IX and then hold left click, it still will charge even if we release right click. *There is a bug with the secondary mode where, once you release the click and quickly change to another weapon, it will show the Balrog explosion alongside an animation bug. ==External link== *[[Wikipedia:Gauntlet_(glove)|Gauntlet]] at Wikipedia. {{Weapons}} Templates used on the current version of this page: Template:!
