Special Moves

Just hit backwards+attack when the enemy is behind you.

you don't have to be crouched to do it with lightstance.

 

just back+attack and you thrust back. It's saved my life many a time. In SP and MP

Best way to do the quick strong leap is to swing the saber - you can do it any direction in heavy, it doesnt matter. Then, as the move nears completion, press forward and attack. You will do the leap. When the blade is on the ground it STILL does the damage of the leap, so make sure you face the enemy at all times, they may make the mistake of running onto it.

 

The kick is essential. Its a good duel opener, and also works well if the enemy likes to rush you a lot.

 

Another gymnastic move is the reverse flip. If you run straight at the wall and jump when you touch it, you will do a sort of back flip off the wall. Press back as you do it and you can flip right over and enemy. You can also do swings while you are flipping sideways or backwards like above.

 

 

This may be OFN, but anyone notice the stances are different colors in SP and MP, and also than in the instructions? In SP, isn't it light yellow, medium blue, and red heavy? In MP it is yellow MEDIUM, blue light and red heavy, or am I just hallucinating?

nope, med in SP is yellow, its what you start with, then you get light, blue, and heavy red...
