LOL I know right. It’s the most efficient way of killing enemies. I’m playing hte game on Hard and taking out the archers at close range first when i can and, with other enemies, changing to the correct stance is an absolute ‘must’.
Duels are some of the best things about this game. Every single time I get to a duel I get super excited. I actually wish there were more duels. Maybe even like a ‘mini boss’ system like in Sekiro, kind of. Duels make this game shine so damned much.
