4 Combat System - miirkuz/DarkArmyResurrection GitHub Wiki

The DAR Combat System adds new attack animations and a couple of new combat mechanics. It's based on a levelling system included in Dark Army Resurrection, so the higher is your Skill level, the better will be your moveset.

When you are out of Stamina, you're not gonna be able to attack properly, but you'll do a slow spin attack.

DAR Combat System also adds Easy Slow Bow, Double Jump Skill available from the beginning of the game, a new method to perform Jump Attack, a new Side Jump Attack, and Archery Stamina.

Easy Slow Bow let you cast Slow Bow Motion from any height, so you just need to press X (Jump) then once in air press ZR. You can cast Slow Motion Bow after a Regular Jump, but you can't cast Slow Motion Bow after a Double Jump, to overide this and cast it after a Double Jump, you need to press X (Jump), press Y (Double Jump), press X (open Parasail), then press ZR (cast Slow Motion Bow).

To perform a double jump just press the Jump button X and once in air, press the Attack Button Y.

You cannot execute a Jump Attack after a Regular Jump or a Double Jump, to perform a Jump Attack you need to open your Parasail first, then press Y to perform a Jump Attack. So you can perform Jump Attack in 2 ways: the first one is the Low Jump Attack, press X (Jump), quickly press X (open Parasail), then quickly press Y; the second one is the High Jump Attack, press X (Jump), press Y (Double Jump), press X (open Parasail), then press Y. Those Jump Attacks deal double damage.

To perform a Side Jump Attack you need to press ZL (lock on enemy), press X + left analog vertical direction (Side Jump) and before touching the ground, press Y, this will perform a Side Attack when equipped with Spears or Large Swords. Using this technique when equipped with Normal Swords, Link will perform a High Jump so you can press X (open Parasail) and press Y to perform a Jump Attack dealing double damage. You have 3 options to use as Side Attacks: Vanilla (DAR Default), Dash Attack or Short Jump Attack (deal -50% damage).

Archery Stamina will make the Stamina Wheel works like when you are entering Divine Beast Vah Medoh, opening the paraglider will fully recover your Stamina.
