The beta gameplay description identifies Dual Blades as an agile weapon. To use them, stay close enough to attack, dodge around threats to reposition, and pause your attacks when stamina runs low so you can keep moving.
Balance attacks with stamina
Dual Blades rely on rapid attacks at close range, but chasing a retreating monster can use stamina you may need to dodge its next attack. Watch your stamina gauge during extended combos. If it drops below 30%, pause briefly to let it recover before continuing.
Dodge to reposition
Use short lateral dodges to adjust your position around a monster rather than retreating completely. When an attack is about to hit, move clear of its path, then return to close range after the threat passes. Avoid committing to a long attack sequence when the monster is preparing a wide-area move.
Account for the weapon’s limits
The draft describes Dual Blades as a short-range weapon without a block, so positioning and evasive movement matter. Against a taller or airborne target, the draft suggests closing in near the monster’s feet; if you cannot safely reach it, wait for a better opening instead of spending stamina on a long chase.
