=== Basic Attack ===
A powerful, if slow, 2-hit combo that covers a full 180 degree arc on both swings and has a tremendous reach, even far enough to sometimes hit monsters on the other side of low walls.(When you hold the attack button your character might spin a second time, sometimes this cause a second attack.) The second attack deals higher damage and extreme knock-back, flinging smaller enemies well out of range for them to counter-attack. The troika's basic attacks excel particularly at hitting many enemies at once and clearing them away if the player is being boxed in; the downside is that against single targets the slow attack speed hinders the overall DPS, and against larger enemies that are resistant to knock-back or enemies with strong ranged attacks, the player may find themselves getting counter-attacked before their own attack animation finishes.

A powerful, if slow, 2-hit combo that covers a full 180 degree arc in front of the knight on both swings. The first hit is stationary and has a one square radius with a fair knockback. The second hit will move the knight one square forward and does a stronger attack with a 2 square radius reach.

=== Charge Attack ===
A short leap forward with a very powerful overhead swing that hits the ground in front of the Knight. Compared to the basic attacks it covers a much longer, but narrower area, and has a fair chance of inflicting [[Stun]]. In addition, the knock-back seems even more potent than in the second attack of the basic combo, often throwing smaller enemies completely out of sight. Note that unlike most swords, your movement speed will be slightly reduced while charging.
+
The Troika's charge attack will lunge the attacking knight about 2 1/2 squares forward and smash the area yet another 1 1/2 squares forward, hitting everything within a single square from the blast. This hit has no knock-back or status effect but is followed by a flash of light which does still more damage, applies heavy knock-back to enemies hit, and has a chance of inflicting [[stun]] on the monsters. The blast's knock-back is stronger than the second swing of the normal combo. While charging the attack, your movement speed will be slightly slower than usual.

Combat

Basic Attack

A powerful, if slow, 2-hit combo that covers a full 180 degree arc in front of the knight on both swings. The first hit is stationary and has a one square radius with a fair knockback. The second hit will move the knight one square forward and does a stronger attack with a 2 square radius reach.

Charge Attack

The Troika's charge attack will lunge the attacking knight about 2 1/2 squares forward and smash the area yet another 1 1/2 squares forward, hitting everything within a single square from the blast. This hit has no knock-back or status effect but is followed by a flash of light which does still more damage, applies heavy knock-back to enemies hit, and has a chance of inflicting stun on the monsters. The blast's knock-back is stronger than the second swing of the normal combo. While charging the attack, your movement speed will be slightly slower than usual.

Damage

The following damage values represent the weapon at its completed level, without any UV or bonus from other equipment, and are listed as a range found from the first to last floor of each stratum.

Troika's Damage Table
Stratum 1 Stratum 2 Stratum 3 Stratum 4 Stratum 5 Stratum 6
Hit 1 36 - 43 50 - 57 87 - 98 89 - 76 62 - 53 49 - 44
Hit 2 43 - 52 61 - 70 106 - 120 111 - 98 81 - 65 59 - 52
Charge Attack 55 - 67 79 - 91 138 - 158 149 - 136 121 - 92 80 - 68
Charge Explosion 60 - 73 86 - 100 150 - 173 164 - 151 136 - 109 90 - 75

Notes

The Troika's attacks excel particularly at knocking back many enemies at once before they can strike, clearing them away if the player is being boxed in. The downside is that against single targets, the slow attack speed hinders the overall damage per second, and against larger enemies that are more resistant to knock-back or enemies with ranged attacks, the player may find themselves getting counter-attacked before their own attack animation finishes. For this reason it's essential to have an alternative to the Troika's usual attack at hand when situations such as this present themselves.

Troika, Khorovod (Russian: Хоровод), and Sudaruska are apparently named after Russian dances.
