Talk:The Witcher combat

flaming sword cursor
Just wanted to point out there are two different flaming sword icons when you are chaining attacks. One is yellow and red, one is just yellow. The yellow and red one is only up for a fraction of a second, but if you attack during it, then your chained attack will be MUCH faster and stronger. At the beginning of the game, with the ghost wolf things, and level two fast style, it is the difference between two attack kills and three attack kills.
 * Get me a decent screen shot of the cursor and i'll add it Game widow 13:20, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I went to look and confirm the aforementioned two different cursors — and I can't. (Not that I am the poster of the above and there is no screenshot by myself either ;)


 * Yes, there are two flaming sword cursors.


 * No, they don't tell anything about a really right and a not that right moment to click.


 * The cursor's loosing it's red color at the moment you're doing the next left click. If you miss the moment for chaining attacks, it looses the flames at all — no red, no yellow anymore. -- CompleCCity (talk) 17:24, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Personally i always went with the audio cues for when to swing anyway. Once you get the rhythm down, it's easy (no matter the apparent level of difficulty) — Game widow (talk) 17:40, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
