Here we can see that it doesn’t really matter which weapon you use, if you just keep on going the opponent doesn’t stand a chance.Īlthough the technique works with any weapon, they will all have their advantages. In this video I recorded my way through the tourney.Īgain, sorry for the freezes and the echoed sound – I don’t really know the cause for that. In a combat scenario in an open field this technique might take a little longer, because you won’t have the fences behind your enemy to constrict his movement. There’s a moment when I wasn’t careful and slashed thin air, and that’s the opening he used against me. Then, it’s just a matter of getting a bit closer and slashing him. Note how I’m going after him, going after the clinch, and at the moment we cross swords I spam F. I apologize for the freezes but this game is pretty performance-heavy! I recorded a training fight with real swords against Captain Bernard to demonstrate the technique. I’m currently using the perk Chain Strikes, in which each uninterrupted strike will do more damage than the last, and with this perk you can put down an enemy very quickly if you’re careful enough not to get attacked/Master Striked.Īlways pay attention to your stamina! If you keep attacking until your stamina is very low, chances are your enemy will strike a combo and do a lot of damage! I always try to keep my stamina above the halfway mark, so even if the enemy counter attacks I can still defend myself, reset and start clinching again! Clinching Technique When their HP gets to a certain point, their guard will open a lot after a sucessful hit and you can chain attacks. If they defend, clinch and attack until their HP is halfway down or lower. The safest route against those enemies is to test: Clinch, hit them and just at the moment your strike hits stab them again. So, you go after your opponent, he might take some steps back but you will catch up and clinch, and when you lock your weapons quickly press F, win the clinch, walk towards him and attack.Īgainst more skilled enemies the slash might be either too slow or he might defend, but you’ll 99% of the time hit a stab (right click attack).īeware that when fighting a skilled opponent, if you try to combo or chain strikes after the first hit you’ll most likely get Master Striked and might even lose a lot of HP in a combo if your stamina is low and you can’t defend yourself. To always win the clinching, I found out that you have to press F.Īll the attack buttons have a different action in clinching – and the most effective is the kick button F. The thing is, if you can consistently come out on top when clinching, you’ll always have an opening to attack your opponent. One of you comes out on top, hitting the other and creating an opening.

Clinching happens when you get too close with your opponent and cross swords.
