A combo always consists of three specific components executed in order:
 
−
# '''Weapon Skill''' (From your Sword/Orb)
 
−
# '''Primary Skill''' (Usually Twisting Slash)
 
−
# '''Finisher Skill''' (Death Stab or Rageful Blow)

== ⚔️ Combo Patterns & Difficulty ==
−
The first step of any combo depends on your equipped weapon.
 
−
* '''Cyclone:''' The most popular choice due to its fast animation speed. Found on items like the *Lightning Sword* or *Mace of the King*.
 
−
* '''Other Skills:''' *Lunge, Slashing, Uppercut, Falling Slash.* (These are generally slower and less preferred).

−
* '''Timing is Key:''' Do not mash the buttons. You must wait for the animation of one skill to start before pressing the next.
 
−
* '''Avoid Rageful Blow:''' For PvP, patterns containing *Rageful Blow* are often too slow. Stick to patterns using *Death Stab* for speed.
 
−
* '''Practice Targets:'''
 
−
** '''Beginner:''' Practice on the '''Dark Elf''' in Refuge Map or '''Sprinter Wolf''' in Kanturu Map (High HP).
