Rapid Attack Direction Changes

[ares007]

Hmm I generally dont give my opponent the initiative at all and make as many varied attacks as I can. The few times where this has really done me in (which I will admit has probably made me a quite bias against it) have been where my opponent had a very fast weapon such as the spiked club and ive had a slightly slower weapon. I guess if the general consensus is that its ok then I may as well use it myself.

And don't forget, you beat a quicker weapon by using movement and range. 
It can be hard, and I've definitely had my losses against quick weapons, but the main thing is to try to fight where your weapon has an advantage.

Quick weapons owns (scimis) if you move fast enough with them cept i prefer the fewer hits per kill ^^

I personally prefer the short sword to the scimitar because they have the ability to thrust. In manual block one more possible direction of attack can mean a lot. Plus I just love the thrust move.

The thrust more epic and deadly but the slashes make it look more barbaric ^^

This is even easier to do if you don't have a shield. Simply ready your attack, look in the direction for the new attack, hit the 'select shield' button, and you'll immediately switch, with no lag time.

That was a bug still present in 1.011, and I doubt it's been fixed.

Yeah being able to thrust can be quite nice even in normal Native M&B, even spotted a rapier in a mod! Boosted thrust damage but lower swing damage. Makes that piercing damage all the more deadly vs strong armor

They should really give a thrust option to the scimitar.

Hmm, I think I used that already, I'll check again later just for the fun of it.
