Hello!

Another thing the game fails to bring up. After you get empowered, you can hold the attack button to charge your abilities. So far nothing new. What is new is the dash/slash ability. Execute it, and the instant you hit your target change direction. You will do another attack in the direction you put in. Like the parry ability, it is a split second mechanic. You must be quick, you must be strategic. Can you do learn that, my boy?

Edit: I think I was able to parry while doing this. I couldn't tell for sure, as everything was moving way too quick to pay attention.
