So I did some testing on this. fast slide attacks, slow, holding different keys, etc. Basically you need to be holding the melee key part of the way through the animation for the slide attack. Its related to the animation because the timing gets shorter with berserker stacks or spped, warcry, etc.

I did my testing with the Orthos Prime and Atterax. I foudn that you had to hold the slide key for the duration of the animation for it to count and that you had to hold the melee key for a certain amount of the animation for it to work.So fast slide attacks where you hold slide and tap melee don't work. You need to slide for roughly a quarter of a second before doing a melee for it to count. It might be that you need to be holding the melee key when you hit for it to count, which makes some sense. With high power speed and berserker you can basically do it as fast as you can and always have it count.

On my Orthos Prime without Fury and with Maxed Berserker stacks you can pull off about 3 slides attacks per second and have them count for this mod. The faster a weapons attack speed the less you need to slide before it counts too.
