Can't do a horizontal strike?

[ArcLight]

For some reason I cannot do a horizontal strike normally, if I attack then attack again trying to do a horizontal strike it works, just not not the first time. Am I doing something wrong?

Did you enable keyboard buttons dictating the strike (I forgot exactly what it was called)?

The 240 mode makes our M1 button attack type and angle based on the little pointer by your crosshair, which in turn is based on the very last motion of your mouse/control stick/etc.

Try "Hybrid" mode. Which seems to make it so all the little arrow does is determine left or right side, so M1 is always horizontal but you don't need two seperate buttons to decide if you want left or right horizontal.

(I cant find anything that explains what hybrid mode DOES, but it seems like the most well rounded joe average control setting for people without phone keypads on the side of their mouse)

Thanks for that advice, actually. I've been using the key directions and it's too limited so I was looking for something sort of in between. I rebound my mapping to have certain attacks bound to Q, E, Z, X, C but it can get tedious sometimes so I'll try out that hybrid mode and see if it helps.

I got it fixed, put the sideways strike on a side button and it allows my to do it. Thanks
