Dash Slash isn't working??
So this is the first time something like this happens in this game.. i just learned the dash slash from oro and no matter how many times i try holding attack then dash and let go it just does a great slash instead. Is it a known bug? What can i do to fix it?

It works fine for me. Are you sure you're releasing the attack button before the end of the dash?

On the keyboard?

Yes i did this hundreds of times .. the other two attacks work fine .. i guess it's a bug but i can't find much info

I'm using a dualshock 4 controller but also have tried on the keyboard and neither works

I've never tried the controller since I play on keyboard (sue me), but it is indeed a little bit uncertain when it comes to the charge dash.

I'm not sure if you had to be holding dash when you release or is it just sometimes releasing it near the end of the dash doesn't quite register as being released during dash, but sometimes the dash slash doesn't always come out correctly.

Thankfully, since you would learn great slash that is rather similar to charge dash later that would be cast by simply a released charged attack, so a faulty dash slash still just comes out as a dash great slash and for the most part they are not that different outside of a little bit of range difference.

.......

EDIT: Wait, this is a necro.

You have to release the attack button right at the START of the dash. Almost at the same time. Otherwise he won't do it.
