Notes & Information

• The light attack and the L1/LB attack can combo into this Skill. This makes it espically deadly when a weapon buff like Carthus Rouge or Darkmoon Blade is added.
• The second slash can still be used without any FP, but the damage will be significantly weaker.
• It takes about 2 seconds before the actual hitbox activates, so it's best to predict your opponent ahead of time.
• Cannot be parried.
• The version of Spin Slash that the Demon's Scar has is a bit different; the strong attack will leave a pool of lava on the ground like the Pyromancy Great Chaos Fire Orb. The pool of lava is not lingering, however, and only lasts for about a second.
