Practice Sword Combat Skills

Master Basic Attacks

Start with simple sword swings against a single opponent in a controlled duel. Practice timing your clicks to land consistent hits. Get comfortable with your attack speed and learn when your sword is ready to strike again.

Learn Spacing and Positioning

Stand at different distances from your opponent and learn how far your sword reaches. Practice moving in and out of range to land hits while avoiding theirs. Good positioning lets you attack without taking damage in return.

Practice Blocking and Dodging

While holding your sword, learn to block incoming attacks by holding right-click. Combine blocking with movement to dodge around opponents. Strafe side-to-side to make yourself a harder target.

Work on Combos

Once comfortable with basic attacks, try chaining multiple hits together. Attack, back away slightly, then move back in for another hit. This rhythm keeps you safe while maintaining offensive pressure.

Spar Repeatedly

Fight the same opponent multiple times in a row. Each duel teaches you something about their style. Ask them to try different tactics so you learn to adapt to various fighting approaches.
