on PC, how to use second skill of SWORD OF NIGHT AND FLAME ?
title,
man i googled, i tried so many keyboard combination BUT i still cannot find
the combination of keyboard keys which give me like in video magic blue attack
i can use flame attack by pressing the same time Shift key an Right Mouse Button
i mention i hold the damn sword with both hands and no matter in which hand i initially hold it i cannot perform the blue magic attack.
so any suggestion will be highly appreciated.
thank you in advance

haha, i changed skill to Ctrl + Right mouse and now i can do only blue magic attack but i can NOT perform flame attack anymore !
any more suggestions ?
i think both blue magic ball and fire are skills and i'm afraid they cannot be used on same time on PC

Bind your 'Skill' input in Keybindings to a single key. No combos allowed.

To use both the laser and the fire wave, the laser uses your light attack, while the fire uses your heavy/charged attack. Both should be keybind onto your mouse (left click for light/right click for heavy) unless you already changed that.

i finally resolved the issue
Ctrl key + Right mouse for Skill
Shift key + Right mouse for Strong attack
then
1. when i press Ctrl key + Right mouse + Left mouse it does blue magic ball
2. when i press Ctrl key + Right mouse + Shift key + Left mouse it does flame

for the one interested thou ... i did it :
1. i mapped strong attack on Z keyboard key (as Metrod125 suggested) and i excluded any mouse implication (in strong attack shortcuts)
2. i set Shift key + Right mouse for Skill
now
1. i attack with fire by keeping down Shift key + Right Mouse button + pressing Z key
2. i attack with fire by keeping down Shift key + Right Mouse button + pressing Left Mouse button

You know you can connect a controller to your PC, right? Just get yourself a PS5 controller (xbots controllers are crappy like everything not made by Sony) and play the game the way it is meant to be played

you young gals and boys ... :steamsad:
i'm an young-old fool playing ... my hands are not for controllers or joysticks .. using them is as i have two left hands (i'm a right hand).
peace
