For bows and crossbows, you must equip both the weapon and the ammunition in order to use them. For these you will either need a bow and arrows, a crossbow and bolts, or a supply of throwing weapons. In addition to the three melee attacks, there are also ranged weapons. Most Short Blades also receive a slight advantage with this attack. Most weapons do not do as much damage when Thrusting, but Spears are ideal for it. This attack is good for keeping your distance from opponents, especially since you can start it while moving backwards, and always keep yourself out of range of their attacks.
You will attack straight ahead with your weapon. To perform a Thrust, start your attack while moving forwards or backwards. A few, mostly Long Blades, are best used with this attack. Most weapons are good for slashing, the notable exceptions again being Spears. This is a good attack to use in close combat, as you will be more likely to dodge your opponent's attacks while moving to the side. You will swing your weapon sideways (right to left) instead of downwards. To perform a Slash, start your attack while moving to the left or right.
The only weapons that do not work very well with a chop are Spear class weapons. Most weapons seem to deliver the most damage with this attack.
You will raise your weapon and do a downward stroke at your opponent. To Chop, all you need to do is start your attack while standing still, or you can run forwards and strafe left or right at the same time (a diagonal movement). Note that you can bypass this mechanic by going into the Options menu and turning on "Always Use Best Attack", upon which you will use the highest damaging attack style for your weapon no matter your character's movement. (Not necessarily how you are moving when you finish it.) There are 3 basic attacks you can do, each depends on how you are moving when you start your attack.
