Tips

 * When using these remember that you must be really close and therefore expect yourself to be vulnerable to staggers, knockdowns and knockbacks.
 * Utilize rolling maneuvers to dart in and out from enemy melee range to deliver high-powered attacks.
 * Occasionally, you may find it hard to hit an enemy even if they are directly in front of you. This may be a small mesh problem associated with the weapons short range.
 * The execution blow has a small AOE which only effects the units slightly overlapping the executed unit.
 * Using Reach can effectively aid in hitting targets from slightly further away.
 * The groundslam attack knocks enemies down in a small area.
