A Combo is a special attack that is performed by pressing a number of buttons rapidly in a certain sequence. Combos are usually more damaging than regular attacks.

List of CombosEdit

[Note: These combos are actually how many times you need to hit the enemy not necessarily how many times you press the buttons. For instance, with the XXXYY combo you can actually rapidly hit the light attack button (X) 4 to 5 times in the time it takes to do 3 animations, so actually performing 3 consecutive light hit animations is what you need before you should start hitting the heavy attack button (Y).]
