Hack and Slash is one of Oongka's default skills, available as a sub-skill of Slash in the Stamina (Blue) skill tree. It requires no Abyss Artifacts to unlock and is accessible as soon as Oongka becomes playable.
Hack and Slash activates as a follow-up attack after a successful charged Slash. When Oongka lands a charged Slash on an enemy, pressing the attack input again triggers a rapid series of additional cuts for extra damage. The skill costs 50 Stamina to execute on top of the Stamina already spent on the initial charged Slash.
The rapid follow-up cuts deal significant cumulative damage, making Hack and Slash one of Oongka's most efficient damage combos when the initial charged Slash connects. The attacks come out quickly enough that most enemies cannot escape the full sequence once the first hit lands.
Always follow up a successful charged Slash with Hack and Slash to maximize damage per engagement.
The combined Stamina cost of charged Slash plus Hack and Slash is significant. Make sure you have at least 70-80 Stamina before starting the combo.
Against single tough enemies and bosses, the charged Slash into Hack and Slash combo delivers some of Oongka's highest burst damage.
Activate Rage before starting the combo to prevent enemies from interrupting you with Super Armor.
Pair with Dual Wielding Mastery for increased damage on each hit of the follow-up sequence.
Rampage: Oongka's forward charge for area damage against groups.
Leaping Smash: A leap-and-slam attack for area-of-effect damage.
Rage: Grants Super Armor to prevent interruption during the combo.
Dual Wielding Mastery: Increases melee damage for skills like Hack and Slash.
Practice using Hack and Slash against weaker enemies before relying on it in boss fights.
