How to follow up a perfect attack in Gotham Knights

Perfect attacks that land will often knock your enemy off balance, backward, or to the ground, opening them up to an assortment of follow up options. Grabs are a great follow-up because they allow you quickly finish off opponents, even if they aren't at the normal grab health range. If its not safe to use a grab though, ranged attacks work as solid follow ups, especially to enemies that just barely survive the perfect attack. Leaving them be and focusing on another, more dangerous, enemy is also a reasonable follow-up. Perfect attacks are great for relieving pressure of overwhelming numbers, because they temporarily CC (Crowd Control) targets that are hit by them.
