Today, while in lockdown, I noticed a knight who was three-shotting everyone with his Divine Avenger. Upon closer inspection, I found that he was double swinging his 2nd swing. After attempting to do the same thing in the ATH (and making myself look stupid) and failing, I have decided to come here for help.

So my question is if it is possible to swing your 2nd swing twice on slow swords or is it just a glitch some people abuse? If it isn't a glitch, I would like to ask how does one swing the combo finisher twice?

I have heard a friend of mine mention something similar, but I'm not aware of the trick of how to do it unfortunately. xP

It does have something to do with shield-cancelling, because I've seen it used before, but you might be better off changing the title to something a bit more specific than 'shield cancel'. Maybe '3-swing combo on a heavy sword' would be a bit better...

ive actually managed to do 2nd swing twice by accident, but i dont remember shielding when i did.....
and it didnt seem to do any extra dmg, it would just pass through mobs. maybe in Ld it does?

I've seen that many times,

I've seen that many times, and I've always attributed it to lag. It really does seem like its just client side, and the lag made you see both swings.

Like how you could be walking, then suddenly get dragged back due to faulty connections. Your client "thinks" it should be this, but the server corrects it.

maybe relavant

I am primarily a gun-user, and i spam my shots.
Something about the reloading click assures me =p

and most times i always get the gun to shoot one more bullet then its maximum clip size.
but the extra shot will never cause any extra damage.
I am sure this is fairly common knowledge but maybe its the same as what you mentioned.

What you need to do is shield

What you need to do is shield cancel the first swing, then swing again, and during that swing just tap your shield button, then hit attack again, or something like that. I've had limited success with it. I thought it was intentional :P

i did it in another way. and

i did it in another way.
and managed to repeat it quite well, here it is:
1- do swing 1
2- while the sword is 1/3 of the way, press & hold attack.
3- first time i did it it hit twice, so i think itll do that always.
