Press R1 + Circle to strike while dodging backward. Damiane delivers an offensive swing while simultaneously creating distance from the enemy.
Evasive Smite is a safe offensive option that keeps Damiane out of counterattack range. Use it as a combo finisher when you want to disengage after a string of melee hits. It works well against aggressive enemies that punish players for staying in close range too long.
