    Default Least Favorite Sword Technique

    I have to say, I think the dash attack (MC) was kind of useless, but in TP I think they all came in handy.
    What's your opinion on this?

    I hated the peril beam in MC, an exact duplicate of the beamblade, And you have to have 1 heart or less. As for TP, I thought it was the jump strike (the charged version of jump attack) because it takes too long to charge and its only good when there are multiple enemies very close to each other.

    Agreed with BlueLink, I did not like the Peril Beam, because it was just worthless in its purest essence. By the time you get to use it when you get one heart left, there's pretty much no chance of surviving anyway.
    Where would we be without swords, magic, and beer?





    I have claimed LINK and Ilia

    Those are the only ones I've played that have multiple sword techniques, but you can post about techniques from other games: thats fine with me.

    I would say the Hurricane Spin Attack from TWW. When i first got this game, I was hoping the special technique after getting all those damn knights crests would be the beamblade attack. Instead you get the hurricane spin, which was kinda cool at first, but I soon realized how pointless it was. Not only did it take forever to gain energy for it, but once the move was completed it delayed Link and made him very vulnerable to attacks.

    Agreed with Avenged, Hurricane Spin was a bit dissapointing. They surely fixed it for Minish Cap though, Great Spin Attack is a really good technique. But as for most things in MC, they made it easier to find...

    But the most least would be... Jump strike, i think it was called. The MC one with Roc's Cape and sword. It looks cool, and damage probably alot, but I simply never used it. Roll strike was also pretty useless, but you could at least easily take out enemies hiding under things with it. So I'll go with jump stirke.

    And best is downward thrust. No-one can disagree.

    I never bothered to get all the Sword Techniques in TP, so I don't know all of them, but my least favorite is the Shield Attack (or whatever it's called). It just seems that no matter what I do, I can never get that one to work.

    Uhh, the down thrust is the one in MC with the roc's cape. Jump strike is the one in TP where you charge up your sword and do a special jump attack that does area damage.

    Ah, then I really got it wrong with the names. Sorry, haven't played MC in awhile. The downward thrust that I meant was best is the one in AoL of course.

    I'm gonna have to say dash attack too....But it was helpful sometimes,So in that case ill say the down thrust i can never hit enemies with it.

    I can not say what tecnniuqe I do not like. Kind of like all kinds. Of course I love the down thrust!! But it is not much superior to the rest Am I wrong?

    (Actually the downtrust in MC was kind of meaningless!!)

    I keep forgetting they exist. It's hard to hate something that doesn't exist. Not impossible, just hard.

    Noooot if you crashed yourself into something on time. Go as long as you can and then whack yourself into a wall, you'll be fine.

    Id say the automatic jump attack (you know, enemy's gonna attack, hit a when it flashes)from WW when you're fighting Orca. It came in handy when you're fighting armored beasts, but Orca has a tendancy to hit you back. The roll around back was just dandy though.
