Button [X] to block

Button [Y] to dash

Buttons [X] + [Y] to shield-dash

Sadly the only dual keybinds you can do require using the shift key, but the shift key can't be used on its own, making the above imposible without external tampering.

algorithms are the solutions to any problem.

actually, you can assign the shift key to something else. you require to unbind the shift key from the "modifier" button binding first. at least I think it's called like that.
in short, search the shift key in your controller settings and bind that to something else.

It doesn't matter.

To dash and bash (that rhymes, ironically) is pretty easy, and works just fine for me.

It's coincidentally, not ironically

If you don't keep left shift as your modifier key, you can't use it in conjunction with another key. There's no way to do [X]+[Y] while also having [X] and [Y] be individual commands.

true!

@Orangeo: you are right that so far i have a problem with shielding and bashing at the same time. so having that as an option to fuse those two keys together would not be bad. not a bad idea.

I don't run into the problem because I use a mouse (left click moves, shift+LMB= dash, middle button shields, shift+MMB=bash) but I see where you are coming from.
I think OOO set the key to modifier because it couldn't be any other way. if I can take a wild guess, it's probably software related.

I probably ought to use my modifier key for more things, but the suggestion still stands.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

Well, on my gamepad as well as on keyboard, I do (modifier+shield) to shieldbash. I don't tie up both shielding and dashing because I sometimes want to dash out of my shield. (Shield Bash is pure offense, but Dash can be defense or offense.)

I see what you mean, you

I see what you mean, you could accidentally shield dash trying to block then dash.

You're asking for a reverse modifier key basically, right? Or a version of it that activates every key pressed at the moment regardless of timing? So if my Shield button is X, and my modifier is Ctrl, and my Bash key is Ctrl+x, pressing Ctrl+x does the same thing as holding X and then pressing Ctrl?

+1 I guess
