📋 About This Mod
Ashina Stance and Thrust attacks replaced:
Deflecting heavy push back:
After being pushed back "Press or Hold R1" to perform an attack with a recoil counter.
Miriki Counter:
Now "Miriki Counter" has more seamless attacks.
After an enemy "Blocks" your attack:
"Hold R1" to perform a quick slash and move back to prepare for the next slash.
Flying Back:
All foot attacks will be sent flying backwards if "blocked" by the opponent.
After flying backwards:
1. "Hold R1" to fly forward and slash twice.
2. "Press R1" for a quick slash.
Flying Back (I was inspired by SEKIRO MALEVOLENCE)
if you feel it's too strong, nerf it via the "Temporary AP Option Setting" mechanic.
There are some sword mods that cause the effect to not show up and there is no damage multiplier
I researched and reviewed every animation and replaced it in the smoothest way possible.
