Apr 12, 2016 Dark Souls III will once again allow you to backstab your enemies for some pretty high damage. While the controls to do so may seem pretty simple, it may not always work. Two-handing a weapon in DS3 works a bit differently than in previous games. The most important change is the addition of Weapon Arts, which, depending on the weapon, can do a great deal of damage, counter, or give versatility to your moveset. In any of these cases, your offensive potential is augmented. When naked Ma'Histaba has a base Critical Hit chance of 10% for both spells and weapons. Because he has the skill Dexterity 2 every item of medium armour he wears adds +219 Critical Weapon Damage to his Weapon Critical, which seems to increase his Crit chance by 1% per item.
Ripostes will do more bonus damage than backstabs, but can also be considerably harder to execute, as they need a parry or a guard-break to happen. The plunging attack is the rarest and most damaging critical. For this strike a higher ground is required, in which the player must jump and while falling hit the normal attack button, thus making the plunge attack dependent on the terrain.

- Bursting effects
- Holy Burst, Unholy Burst
- Good Burst, Evil Burst
