True POWER
This is an addon for the SlashBlade:Resharped modification that fundamentally overhauls combat mechanics, making it more dynamic and responsive.
Benefits of the Modification
While the basic version of SlashBlade: Resharped draws inspiration from Vergil's combat system from Devil May Cry 5, it still contains numerous shortcomings - from inconvenient controls to problems with key press registration. This mod completely replaces the Resharped combat system, aiming to create a truly "DMC-like" gameplay - True POWER.
Recommended to use alongside the Shoulder Surfing Reloaded mod for better field of view in combat.

Combos and Techniques
- ⚙ Player movement restriction during execution of certain combinations

- In Powered state, Void Slash deals double damage and pulls in enemies when sheathing sword
- ⚙ In Powered state, the Judgement Cut technique hits up to two additional nearby targets
- The final strike of Combo C attaches a Mirage Blade to the target, which explodes and launches the enemy when sheathing sword (increases to 6 blades in Powered state)
