| |
| − | == Combination Attacks ==
| |
| − | The highlight of the dual blades power set is its implementation of a "combo system." Most attacks lack a secondary effect, like Katana's -Def or Dark's -ToHit, but the set makes up for this by adding the ability to chain attacks together to create an additional effect at the end.<!-- the knockdown in two attacks are secondary enough for me :) --Konoko --> Combo effects also gain the benefits of any relevant [[Enhancements]] in the move that finished the combo.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | When you hit an enemy with the beginning move for a combo, you have 5 seconds to hit with the continuing move or the combo breaks and your attacks cause only their normal effects. Likewise, hitting with a continuing move gives you 5 seconds to hit with a finishing move before losing the combo. The combo also breaks if you hit with any Dual Blades power other than the next one in the combo. Taunt and Confront are exceptions to this rule -- they don't automatically break combos, although they may make you run out of time. Powers outside the Dual Blades power set don't break combos either.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Attacks in a combo don't all need to hit the same enemy, but they do all need to hit. Misses don't break the combo, but they don't advance it either, and only the fastest attacks cycle quickly enough to be tried again before the 5-second timer runs out.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | If a move is both a beginner for one combo and a continuer for another, it will do only one of those two things, depending on when it is used.

| |
| − | === [[File:DualBlades_ModerateBridge.png]] Ablating Strike ===
| |
| − | You slash at your foes with your blades, dealing a good amount of lethal damage. This attack can reduce a target's defense, making him easier to hit. This power is needed for the Empower and Weaken combination attacks, and is the beginning of the Attack Vitals combination attack for Brutes, Scrappers, and Tankers. This power is the finishing move of the Sweep combination attack for Stalkers.

| − | === [[File:DualBlades_AssassinBlades.png]] Assassin's Blades ===
| |
| − | A signature Stalker attack. This attack does superior lethal damage on its own as a frontal attack and cannot be interrupted. However, if it is executed while you are Hidden, this attack will do tremendous lethal damage as you waylay your unsuspecting foe. This attack may be interrupted if you move or are attacked while executing this power and are hidden. Using this power while not hidden has a chance to critically hit equal to 33.3% times the number of stacks of Assassin's Focus. This power is needed for the Empower and Sweep combination attacks. Using Assassin's Blades when not hidden will remove all stacks of Assassin's Focus regardless if you critically hit or not.
