Notes

  • The fourth attack shown in the details section of this page represents the charged attack, however the charged attack can be initiated at any point in the combo.
  • When striking the back of a Thorny, the player is not always injured. The charged attacked enables the player to bypass the protection provided by their back and deal damage without injury.
  • The damage from the charge attack comes directly from where you stop moving, meaning that if a Shieldbearer is facing you when you start the charge, it will damage the Shieldbearer once you finish. This works the same way for every other enemy that can block attacks.
