How To Do the Z Step in VV Ultimatum

Okay, let's now see how to do the Z-Step in VV Ultimatum and how to complete the Z-Step quest. Many players find this quest quite confusing due to it not being properly explained, which is completely reasonable, if you ask me. The game just doesn't do a good job of explaining more complicated mechanics like this one to players. But worry not - here's how to do it:

  1. Use any skill that gives you space (such as heavy knockback or air launcher).
  2. Perform any Z-Step compatible ability.
  3. Press Q.
  4. Congrats, you've done a Z-Step!

And that's it - it's that easy! It may take some practice and refinement before you can do it comfortably, but at its core, it's really quite simple. You just need to remember the three basic steps listed above, and you are good to go.
