Sneak attacks and critical strikes are counted separately. All weapons except staves or 'other' weapons (such as forks) can strike a critical with the right perks. Attack TypeĪ critical strike provides extra damage which bypasses armor upon a successful blow. Both of these attacks count as three separate power attacks and will consume Stamina accordingly. If you are using only your fists, you will perform a similar three punch strike when the same input is used.
If you are dual wielding, holding down both the left and right attack buttons at the same time results in fast, a three-hit power attack that attacks with both weapons. Left and right inputs can be used to sidestep enemy attacks, and with the Sweep perk, a left or right power attack can strike all enemies in a forward arc when using a two-handed weapon.
Moving backwards will cause you to step back and then strike, useful for avoiding and countering enemy attacks.
If you push the forward input while performing a power attack, you will execute a dash strike, useful to close distance quickly. You can perform several kinds of power attacks depending on which movement control you press as you attack and what weapon you are using.
