Movement: Difference between revisions

Line 73:

As a physics based game, several principles in the real world are also modeled in-game. However, quirks with the game engine allow unique movement options that are not readily apparent.

=== Heavy Melee Cancel ===

Heavy Melee Cancel lets you interrupt the recovery animation of a Heavy Melee by using specific active items or abilities. By activating these items during the lunge portion of the attack, you can preserve the forward momentum, opening up extended movement options.

Heavy Melee Cancel is a valuable technique for melee-focused builds, as it allows you to bait enemies into wasting their parry.

To Perform a Heavy Melee Cancel:

# Equip an active item that allows Heavy Melee cancellation or play a character with an ability that enables it.

# Initiate a Heavy Melee, then activate the item or ability during the lunge phase to cancel the recovery while maintaining momentum.
