Melee Attack Explanations
A "sweep attack" is an arcing melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the edge of the blade (the length of obround melee hitbox). A "thrust attack" is a melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the tip of the blade (the rounded edge of obround melee hitbox). A "360/spin attack" is a sliding sweep attack that hits targets around the player (not always in a 360° arc, but is usually above 180°). A "direct slam attack" is a melee strike that hits a single target at the epicenter of a slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod. A "radial slam attack" is the area-of-effect component of the melee slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod. A "ranged attack" is any melee attack that launches a ranged projectile or can hit targets beyond melee range.

Average Damage Multiplier per second only applies to single-target DPS calculations.
Note that hits marked as "Radial Slam Attack" will not apply at the epicenter of a single target hit so these will not be accounted for in Avg Dmg Multi/s calculations.
Combo animation lengths are approximate and are only accurate within a few tenths of a second.
Each tile marking in stance preview gifs are 2m apart.
Combos labeled with an asterisk (*) are shared between weapons within the same weapon type.

Trivia[]

Decisive Judgement used the same portrait as Tranquil Cleave from its introduction in Hotfix 13.1.2 (2014-04-25), until it received its own portrait in Update 14.0 (2014-07-18).
This mod was previously dropped by Tenno Specter in Solar Rail Conflict missions, until it became unavailable due to the change of the latter mission into PvP. It is now dropped by Grineer Wardens and Heavy Gunners.
Decisive Judgement appears to be based off of the Kenjutsu style of swordplay.
