Radiant Finish Psa

[Instinction]

Pretty sure I know what's going on with Radiant Finish and why people are executing enemies (in turn slowing their dps).

It puts enemies into a finisher state (just like Ash's Teleport does). If you walk up to them WITHOUT SWINGING, and THEN swing when you are close (near touching) to them, you will do an execution.

If you SWING AS YOU ARE APPROACHING, you will not do an execution as you will hit them before you are in range for an execution and after you hit them the first time it will pull them out of the finisher state.

 

Try this out for yourselves and see how it works for you. I am currently having no issues at all with the executions as I am constantly swinging to mow down enemies.

This also applies to the blind move performed as part of one of Exalted Blade's combos.

radial blind now leaves the blinded enemies open to finishers. radiant finish just gives the 300% damage boost
