Here are the best combos you should use in Stellar Blade. Know what the best combos are, how to learn them, and read on for a list of all the combos!

Best Combos

Onslaught IV

Onslaught IV
Command Input	▶ ▶ ▶ ▶

The most useful combo is the Onslaught IV, and is a 5-hit combo alternating between heavy and light attacks. It's effective to most enemies and can easily take most out when you land the fifth hit.

The second and third hits of this combo has a short recovery time, so when an enemy attacks mid combo, it's easy to switch to a guard or a Perfect Dodge.

How to Perfect Dodge

Rush Chain Combos

Rush	Hold

A helpful move when dealing with a far away enemy is to use a Rush attack. Using this will make Eve rush to the enemy's side and immediately perform an attack.

It is best to remember that Rush Attacks have a cooldown timer before you can perform another one. Its gauge is located just above the Rush icon at the bottom right of the screen.

Rush Chain I

Rush Chain I
Command Input	Hold ▶

The Rush Chain I combo can be used after succesfully hitting an enemy with a Rush attack. Rush chain I is a series of rapid attacks that deals huge damage to the enemies.

Rush Chain II

Command Input	Hold ▶ +

Rush Chain II is a more powerful version of Rush Chain I as it consumes Beta Energy to perform it.

Beta Skill Combos

Triplet to Quadruplet
Command Input	+ ▶ +

Follow up combos are accessible to Beta Skills such as Triplet, Slash, and Shockwave if you press the same buttons again immediately after performing them. However, to have access to these combos, you will have to unlock their advanced versions first, namely: Quadruplet, Crescent Slash, and Cross Wave.

In order to perform these, you will need to have Beta Energy, but the follow up combos do not consume Beta Energy at all so feel free to do the combos whenever you perform a Beta Skill.

Continuous Light Attack Combo

Continuous Light Attack Combo
Command Input	▶ ▶ ▶

Light attacks are not as powerful as the heavy attacks but its advantage is that it can hit rapidly and you can chain up to 4 hits with just using it. This combo is useful against hordes of enemies, especially when you are surrounded by them.

It's fast and since the slashes are horizontal, it also has a wide range, making sure that you hit multiple enemies at once.

Incursion II

Incursion II
Command Input	▶ ▶ ▶

If an enemy manages to move back or step away during one of your attacks, immediately perform the Incursion II combo.

The last hit of this combo is a Rush attack and will make sure that you maintain close proximity to your enemy.

How to Learn Combos

Unlock Skill Trees

Combos can be learned through Unlocking Skill Trees by consuming SP.

You can unlock Skill Trees at nearby Camps. There are various combos already learned at the beginning of the game, but there are also powerful locked ones that can be learned, therefore collecting SP is key to unlock them further.

Obtaining SP

SP, along with EXP can be obtained by defeating enemies. One way to farm SP is by using the chair at a Camp to rest, this will respawn enemies in the area and you can defeat them again for more SP.
