Decapitation...

Is there some trick to getting more Decaptations?

I am very near the end of the game and i only have about 5 decapitations...

Am I missing something?

I have been getting decapitations relatively frequently using my "purple sword glowy thing" right when an enemy is about to die. It works fairly well.

For your information, that's called 'flourish.'

you can use lightning lv4 to decapitate 4 people at a time.
you can also shoot peoples heads of with arrows(i find it very entertaning

)

If you're trying to do it with a hand-to-hand weapon then when you pound on them hard enough they'll get a little daze around their head and then you do a florish which takes off thier head.

If you are using a Ranged weapon, then aim for the head and it should take it off.

Sometimes I get a decapitation bare-handed with maxed Strength and Berserk

i agree with turkey chaser a full power bow shot should decapitate the smaller bandits and villagers and is most entertaining indeed.

Do you get something for having alot of decapitations or something other than it being really cool

Not that I know of. It's just really entertaining. I especially like puncing guards' heads off. They're so big and bad when you're a kid and then you just completely pwn them.

Err, Matt, is it possible to decapitate someone with your bare fists? I tried that once and still that guy's head remain in place.

More likely its what I wrote.

Anyway, both my beserk and strength was to the max and when I tried it on a guard at the part

Spoiler

where the main character was thrown in prison at a certain part in the game,

his head didn't fall off.

An effective way of getting decapitations while still low level is just to use fireball level 1 til they are stunned then use the push spell and it takes their head right off

Heh heh:laugh: . Nice, though I never used fireball as it was clumsy and left me open to attacks (especially melee fighters). Can't care much acout decapitations anyway especially fighting at close quarters since more wise to eliminate enemies than trying to make heads fly off (only when I'm using a bow to headshot people than its useful for me

).

I'm not bothered about decapitations and don't aim to get them, but it is funny when there is only one bandit left and a passing trader sees the bandit's head going flying lol.

So far I've gotten 30+ decapitations an' that's just with my now replaced Obsidian Longbow with the flame an' lightning augments (I didn't know that they were monster-specific at the time... I thought they offered a generic damage boost to everything an' an extreme damage boost to those monsters that were weak against the elemental damage.). I like to think that I'm a rather good headhunter for someone who hasn't even begun to sprout horns or substantiate his halo yet...

An' so far? No, nothing but the warm tinglies are there to reward you for lopping off somebody's melon. Still, not all rewards need to be tangible, there's nary a better pleasure in the game than hiding in the shadows late at night, taking your time to stalk your prey, get a good shot in between the trees and... Good night! 'THWOCK!'
