Animation cancelling with staff question ps4

Light attacking -> crushing shock -> repeat
So does anyone have a hard time on ps4 doing this? Not sure if I'm doing this right but I'm just using the controller like shooting a paintball gun... Rapidly smashing r2 and r1. Don't really see much cancelling haha ^_^;

Try doing a medium or heavy attack. Wind up and let go of the trigger at half way of full animation and hit crushing shock at the same time or right before u let go of the trigger. It feels smoother this way1 -

✭✭✭✭✭I used to have the same issue. There is a secret though! The easiest button to weave with (for me at least) is the left bumper L2. This should be where your main spammable skill is binded to.
So L2:Crushing Shock ---> R1:Light attack ---> Repeat
Might feel weird at first, until you realize that your index finger no longer has to jump around like it's racing your thumbs.2 -
HebrewHatchet✭✭✭The real secret is the staff that you're using. @Armenian_Ninja has the right idea, but that works with fire staves. If you have lightning, you'll have to weave light attacks since lightning staves have channeled attacks. I don't know how to do this with ice staves, never bothered to learn.[PS4 NA]

✭✭✭✭✭@HebrewHatchet Whether the staff is Fire or Ice, it works the same. With a Lightning staff you can only weave with light attacks.1 -
its easier if you switch your attack to a button not a trigger. i just switched r1 and r2 . just dont forget your ulti is now L1 and r2[PS4] captainSNAKA

Dracan_Fontom✭✭✭✭✭From my experience playing on PS4, the best weaving comes from the Inferno or Ice Staves. The combo for the two with Crushing or Funnel if you're a nb, seems natural. Other the hand weaving with channel heavy attack feels so chucky.0 -

depend wich kind of staff do you use: with channeling staff (lightning or restoration staff) i found cancel animation is more difficult. try the same with inferno staff.Edited by BurtFreeman on February 14, 2016 8:19AM0 -
paul_j✭✭✭Thanks for all the input guys I found a great way of weaving with a lightning staff. I put crushing shock as x and double tap r2 and it's working wonders0

socomredSoul ShrivenSkills cancel basic attacks and blocking cancels skills. Try r2 hold for a second, then what ever button you use for crushing shock, then immediately press l2. Work great on shields because they have long animations

paul_j✭✭✭I noticed it's easier for me to start the weaving process with a lightning staff by starting with crushing shock instead of light attack lol! the weaving begins after the first crushing shock0
