Charged attacks

[Zieg]

For Greatswords what counts as a charged attack? is it only the Potent Blow charged hit? Asking because i switched around some gear to give myself 40% charged attack increase, but Charged swift attack/mortal blow, and charged skills dmg all didnt change, only potent blow charged up changed?? Wondering if Chargedt swift/mortal blow fall under swift attack damage increase not charged??

Any skill that has a word "Charge" in its description counts.

Take "Shooting Star" GS, for example. It has a fixed attribute where you gain Fire buff for 10 seconds after doing a charged attack. Went into training, and here are the results:

1. Savage Momentum - counts;
2. Mortal Blow: Bloodshed - counts;
3. Charged Potent Blow - counts;
4. Helm Break - counts;
5. Heart Piercer - counts;
6. Charged active skills (Phantom: Night Veil, Inner Fury, etc.) - all count.

Flat DMG increase also works the same way. Tested my current set-up against a training dummy - Savage Momentum deals 8359 + 3236 total damage. Now I change one piece of equipment for one that has a "Charged Attack: DMG Increase - 7.8%" attribute, without altering my damage output in any other way.

The result? Savage Momentum now deals 8825 + 3416 total damage.

all attacks that can be charged should be effected. this is especially odd to hear because mortal blow is a potent blow and is affected by increases to potent blow damage. Ive never really delved to deep into testing but it sounds like a bug if its not working.

for future reference every skill tells you what category it is under on the skill tree
ignore the text. I meme editied this image A while back because a topic went on for two pages without myself or others noticing this was in the game. this is not a targeted sarcastic image post aimed at you.

exiting game and restarting fixed it for me, most of the increased charged came from gear(flesh ripper, fugitive,Fiend.and helm to reduce req)my mortal blow went up from 8kish to 11500ish which looks about right.
