Uchigatana Battle Arts problem

[Omegilla]

So I looked up how to perform battle arts with it. Problem is I can't seem to execute the lunge attack. I can execute the heavy attack parry, but not the lunge which is annoying. I can't figure out if its a problem with my key configurations or what. I've got it bound as right hand light and strong attacks are bound to right mb and shift+rightmb and left light and strong as left mb and shift+mb respectively. Anyone figure this out?

Bump, since apparently everyone is and seconds into page 2 of this discussions forum.

I've been playing around with using my Lctrl, doesn't seem to work.

whatever your normal attack is, it's just HOLD the stance button, then Press attack... I don't know what's happening that's preventing it but that's all it is

Your keybindings may be preventing this

Thats what I am saying I don't know if it is or not. I just said in the post what my config is for my controls so far as swinging my weapons go, so that should give someone who can do it with keyboard and mouse some insight into helping me.

Okay, so there are two steps that need to happen for the lunging attack

1. you must be holding STANCE, which in your case is SHIFT+ LMB

2. you must use a right hand light attack, which in your case is RMB.

The problem is this, you are ALREADY holding shift! meaning you are using SHIFT+RMB, which is the heavy attack, or the parry.

With your keybinds, it appears to be impossible to do the lunge, you will have to change them

[TheBlueFox]

My recommendation is to use RIGHT hand attacks on the mouse, and LEFT hand attacks on Shift and Tab

[TheBlueFox]

try changing it to this.

Right Hand attacks:
Light - LMB
Heavy - RMB

Left Hand attacks
Light - Shift
Heavy - TAB

Then, Hold TAB and press LMB, see if it works

I've switched it up. Its stupid, but it works now.
