Broadswords
With Divine Artifice on, vanilla broadswords use combo slashes.
Shared loop
Section titled “Shared loop”Left click no longer uses the vanilla swing. Each press plays one beat of a combo. The blade follows a held slash.
Most swords use three beats. Beats alternate sides. By default, stop for about 0.9 seconds and the combo returns to the first beat.
You cannot start the next beat while the current slash is still out.
The Iron Broadsword is a three-beat butcher: lift, pause, then a forward-step finisher. Other broadswords share this combo skeleton. Per-sword extras sit on the gold Godsmith Reforged line.
