Talk:Fanning Slash

02:27, 18 April 2011 (UTC)The skills says the last strike no longer depends on how many normal attacks you do once u reach rank 9. Is this true or is it another one of those little things in there that dont actually work for the moment?--Veltan 11:48, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
 * it doesn't work for me in NA East. maybe it's from a future patch? LeonPegasus 22:31, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * wouldnt surprise me if it was, I just wouldnt know how to check the difference. --Veltan 09:46, 6 January 2011 (UTC)


 * At rank 9, you get 2 smashes. I believe the strike that doesn't depends on normal attack is the attack where you slam your swords into the ground. --Aprildog18
 * In order to test this problem I compared the final smash damage between doing one jab and doing multiple jabs. For the multiple jabs I used Slashing High and continuously jabbed the Red Gnoll in Decisive battle for 15-18 seconds, then unleashed the final smash (not the double whammy ground slam). Surprisingly both the final smash damage from the single jab and the multiple jabs were the same. Anyone else want to confirm this? --PunkDrifteR 13:40, 15 January 2011

Um... I don't think this topic needs to be disputed anymore. Can we close this and agree it works? --PunkDrifteR

Are you guys sure you need to do any jabs at all to do the maximum damage after rank 9? The descriptions says that "the damage of the final strike no longer depends on the number of earlier attacks" so does that mean the 4 normal attacks you do before hand are enough to do maximum damage because they can be considered "earlier attacks?" Also, which "final strike" is the description talking about specifically? The shock-wave or the smash itself? -- Anonymous

The Rank 9 Description says "Don't use a direction key while attacking". What does that mean? Shadowslicer777 01:22, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
 * It means don't move after performing the main smash and before the shockwave smash. Link16
