How to Use Power Sword Styles

Change Styles with the Power Sword

Style Description Best Use
Speed Style Fast attack combo with great reach. Best for gap-closing, singular targets.
Power Style Slow, wide swings. Best against swarms and groups.

Attack combos, including one for each style, can be viewed in the pause menu.

The Power Sword has a unique style change mechanic done by holding the melee button. Doing so will cause the Bulwark to lift the sword outward, changing the blue charge effect of the weapon. A strong blue glow symbolizes the Power Style, while the thin, lighter glow symbolizes the Speed Style.

Use the Speed Style for gap-closing and quickly dispacting single targets, and the Power Style for dealing with mobs.
