Combat

Basic Attack

A 10-hit combo, consisting of 5 swings doing 2 hits apiece. Each swing has a chance of inflicting poison. All swings but the first one make the player thrust forward 1 block.

Charge Attack

A series multiple of hits followed by a final slash with a forward lunge. This attack takes several seconds to complete, during which time it cannot be interrupted unless you are Shocked. Please note that the final swing [as with other cutter line swords.] CAN be shield canceled, however it still must be aimed and used with care.

The first stroke of the combo does one "high" hit and one "low" hit. The second, third, and fourth strokes of the combo are identical. The fifth stroke of the combo does one "charge" hit and one "low" hit. The charge attack is similar, but with all "high" hits replaced by the more powerful "charge" hits.
