Holding shinsoku?

is it me or can we just hold down the button now? like before it would stop after a while but now it's more like hurricane where i can just hold the button down and it keeps going

I also like to switch from Blade Flash to Shinsoku during weapon cancel so I can charge up my sword energy faster. Shinsoku has lots of useful applications!

I only use Shinsoku to life steal off bosses

@ulieq: Shinsoku is weaker, but it has plenty of advantages over Blade Flash. More damage doesn't automatically translate to better. You'll be singing a different tune about "Shinsucko" once you start fighting bosses with heavy movement or wonky hitboxes.

SHinsucko is weaker than the normal attack until you have all 3 active hyper skill points.

@ulieq: it's more hits per second when you hit about 30-35mil lines you pleb

@deeemon: Aw darn, you're right. Though I feel like Shinsoku lasts a lot longer than it used to.

On an unrelated note, has anyone else noticed that huge delay when trying to link Shouryuusen-Whirlwind Cut and Dankuusen with other skills? I could swear it wasn't always like this.

I think it's always been like that, but it still stops when using a potion or moving, for me at least.

If you hit Shinsoku with Sweeping Blade it will cast Sweeping Blade and Shinsoku together and Shinsoku will continue going the 15s duration without needing to hold it down

It appears we can hold down the button now. It stops a bit after 15 seconds, but it recasts itself immediately after. It never did that before O.o
