Whirlwind Slash, bugged or incorrect usage?

[Kal]

Hey all,

Just wondering if you guys had any input on a problem I've been having have-- I'm brand new so probably doing something wrong but I can't seem to find any information on this.

Whenever I perform whirlwind slash (it is properly equipped) the animation plays but it doesn't connect with any of my opponents, thus not dealing any damage or knockback. It simply goes straight through my target(s). I've tried it on all the enemies I can, dogs, musketeers, samurai, and chickens.

Any help would be great!

I would guess incorrect usage.
Whirlwind slash delivers an X like strike and the hitboxes are very precise. I would guess dogs are too small to hit them - you'll have easier time killing them with deflecting or shurikens.
Normal humans though should get hit by it just fine. Perhaps you over-estimating the range of the attack? It doesn't have much for reach.

The whirlwind in particular has a specific function of being used when outnumbered and surrounded. It doesn't really deals that much damage or has any special effects, its pretty much 2 normal attacks delivered in AOE around you.

Hmm, unfortunately I don't think it's my spacing, here's a video to help see the problem:

I'm so confused with how this ability works lol

Edit: asdasdjk I'm a monkey. I'm watching the video and it occured to me that the custom skins were doing something weird. Sure enough, disabled the Knight Armor and it works! Sorry for the waste of a thread haha.

I've figured it out. First you have to go to Equipment menu and there is a "Combat Arts" slot. You have to click it and choose the skill you want to use.
