Overview Neutral For reasons known to Neco-Arc alone, you can disable Aoko's orbs with a charged jC, 3C, 22B/2BC Necos, or any rocket Necos that you may get from summons. Inexplicably, you can also disable them with the Eye Beam portion of 22[A], even though the initial laser nor the individual 236 Beams affect the orbs. Offense Defense
