I found these while waiting for the Triforce Event.

In single player, playing on very hard, in Mines 2, the Garanz cannot launch missiles. They play the animation, but nothing comes out. 2 clips: https://clips.twitch.tv/GlutenFreeBetterWhaleCorgiDerp https://clips.twitch.tv/SleepyEnthusiasticClamM4xHeh @Fyrewolf5

...didn't know he had mines attack either.

Hey sorry I missed you there. Yeah that's fine I'll catch up with you soon.

Well there's a number of mechanics that can make things easier. For one, enemy attack hitboxes are actually miniscule. Even a centimeter of movement can dodge an attack if timed correctly, so being able to bait enemy attacks is a good skill to practice. They have a lot longer recovery after an attack, allowing you to easily flank them and reposition. As for combos, yes 3rd attack does have larger recovery time than the 2nd, however, you can also do things like combo delay (i.e. not attacking as fast as possible); this allows you to keep monsters flinching, so that you can do full combos on them. You have a fair bit of time with which to delay attacks, so practice different timings. Another important thing is to either have a setup that has no targeting attacks on back palette (and none on number keys, just on front pallete only), which is very easy to do on cast. This allows you to hold the back palette key and drop all targeting easily for good movement; the alternative would be to open a menu (quickmenu or full menu, either one). This will prevent you from slowing to a walk, which happens when you are near something that you are targeting. For Hucaseal, daggers, twin swords, and katanas generally have very fluid animations that chain well even without delay. Doublesabers have a bit of recovery at the end, making them more difficult. Partisans also have more forward reach and less horizontal than swords do, as well as better recovery. I can maybe show you some of these techniques in game if you are around.
