Greatswords

The Greatsword is one of the six weapons that can be chosen from the beginning. Greatswords can be forged at Brokk's Forge which are present in every city. It is a heavy weapon and therefore is the most difficult to master. However, once mastered, it has the potential to be the most powerful weapon in the game.

Difficulty Rating

★★★★★

Basic Attack Combo:
 * A sideways swing
 * Another sideways swing
 * An upward smash
 * A final spin that deals the most damage

Advantages:
 * Basic can be charged and released to deal even more damage on first strike; when using a charged attack, sword is smashed straight to the ground and has more range in front of the player, and if the basic attack button is held down again right after the main charged attack, it will skip the basic combo and deliver the final spin
 * Most powerful of the six weapons
 * Can deal devastating damage if specials and basics are used wisely
 * Chargeable basic attack
 * Some specials have stun immunity
 * Can move while charging the basic attack

Disadvantages: Tips: 
 * Lack of aiming option
 * Slow hit speed
 * Use your heavy smash while an enemy is charging an attack, then roll away quickly
 * If an enemy is stunned after a heavy smash use your teleport skill into the area you just hit
 * After using your chargeable attack always spin as it outputs the same damage as the previous hit
 * The Greatsword is GREAT at fighting behemoths with large hit-boxed breakables (Ex. The Croaker's tail)
 * To make up for the slow hit speed practice your move interruption in case you are in danger of being attacked but are in the middle of a move
 * This weapon is all about timing and accuracy
 * DO NOT USE AUTO-LOCKING/TARGETING, it makes it extremely hard to aim the Greatsword since it gives you a fixed perspective, its a lot easier to aim your smashes with a free camera.
 * You can re-aim your Greatsword's heavy smash while charging, simply slide the movement button in the direction you want it to go
