I find it VERY much more effective to use a shortsword by itself. The master strike animations are just so much more powerful. From your perspective, the ones you do when you opponent hits you from the bottom left are enough to instakill any unarmoured enemy. My sword of choice is the Stinger. It's unmatched. Combined with good defense, when you riposte enemies, just one precisely timed stab to the face will kill almost anyone. Generally it is unavoidable too directly after a master strike and it's even effective against armoured enemies. And then the more stubborn ones, there is a combo that ends with a stabbing attack so that does insane damage with the Stinger since its stabbing stat is so high.
Those peasants were hungry, but Henry was hungrier.
in my first playthrough i went through the exact same area but like 8 peasants ambushed me and scared my horse lmao. Died instantly
