Air combos not working?

[Quintin B. Squintin]

I keep trying to do the light > heavy > heavy > heavy string in the air, but I just immediately do a ground slam instead of the chain. Same with the light > light > heavy > heavy > heavy combo, only that one always puts the enemy out of range. Maybe once every 10 attempts will I land it, but I still don't get why it's so inconsistent. Anyone got an answer?

Inputting movement with your Heavy Attack will finish the air combo with a Hammer-On ground slam.

Press attack buttons only, no movement, while you perform your air combo. Or, go to the Options and scroll down the Gameplay tab to Control Settings, and change “Jump + Heavy Attack Input Priority” to OFF.

You're a godsend, I've been so confused why I keep dropping my aircombos. Is there any reason to keep jump + h priority on?

As far as I can tell, there’s no other way to interrupt an air combo with a Hammer-On.

So what if too many enemies are creeping toward you, or you’ve already depleted your target’s health? Then with the “Input Priority” option set to OFF, you’ll have to do something else. Maybe an aerial Dash → Hammer-On, or just skipping a beat.
