Manual or smth similar?

[Damocles66]

I'm probably blind, but is there smth like a lexicanum, wiki, or actual manual that explains the different game mechanics?

For example the Bulwark:
Sword perk mentions "switching combat styles", first mention of combat styles for me
Another perk mentions Power Whirl Stance. Never heard of that one either.

Are those explained when you pick these weapons up in the campaign, did I miss something, or are we supposed to stumble upon these game mechanics by accident?

It's in there somewhere.. I'd have to look, the trials, the campaign, the tutorial... I mean you're saying "by accident" as if you've never actually played the game.

Or even just picking the weapon and looking at the menu while in a mission... It's not *that* hard. You hold right mouse button to switch between AoE and Single Target damage... Just play the game and you'll figure it out.. this needs for wikis and tomes of text to describe every function is genuinely rotting your brain. Are you that incapable of figuring it out yourself by trying it?

Genuinely asking. Are you incapable of just trying it, to figure out its mechanics?

Style refers to Power and Speed Stances.

The wide slashes are Power Stance, the faater stabby one is Speed Stance.

The perk for switching styles refers to holding Heavy attack from neutral to switch from one stance to the other.

Power Whirl Stance is what happens you pause mid combo. You'll go into a stance where the sword flashes.
Hit a light attack when it flashes to do the Power Whirl.
Note that you can be interrupted when executing the move, the perk only prevents the windup from being interrupted in my experince.

You can read the moveset on the pause menu ingame.

@Johnno Ah, that is what I meant with blind. I had never yet pressed esc in my 20h of space marine 2 while in a mission. That information is enougn for me.

Apologies for being crude, I've had a few. It's just in there somewhere if you look around. May well not be where you expect it, I'm myself used to looking everywhere.

Sorry again, best on your journey.

Some people just want to know the quick answer to something in a game without proving themselves worthy of it with their own intellect. This isnt the real world, or a job, it's a video game. It is okay my guy

Just answer without the extra psychological-analytical judgments or go about your day. This is such a non-issue.
