(sword mod) Another quick opening move. This will rip the shield arm completely.

press c
raise right shoulder
contract right elbow & wrist
space x 1
lower right shoulder
extend abs
space x 1 (right to the heart )

Finish it off: (this avoids getting hit by your own sword and self-decap)

hold right elbow
extend right wrist
space x 1
hold right wrist

;)

dude it dint work maybe theres something wrong

It works perfectly for me, the sword stabs right in the heart and rips off the shield wielding arm. :/

strange....

Perhaps you havent used the same enagage distance and dismemberement threshold?? Also ArKano it would be helpful if you did that.

I used version 1.98, with default engage distance (100), and default dismemberment threshold, so it should work.

heres a screenie:

But you haven't raised the shouder on the picture

If you check the movement, youТДll see that I raise it, hit space, lower it. That produces a 'waving' motion that avoids the opponentТДs shield.
