Spin Slash (Gotthard Twinswords)

Spin Slash is a skill in Dark Souls III.

Description
The wielder brings both swords into a clockwise spin. Performing a strong attack will bring the swords around for another spin, swinging horizontally with the left-hand sword and then downward with the right-hand sword, then ending with a simultaneous double-thrust with both swords.

Single Player
This skill exploits the long reach of the Gotthard Twinswords as well as their varied moveset, allowing the player to quickly bring horizontal and vertical slashes to bear on a target and then follow with a long-ranged thrust.

Online
Unlike the other variants of Spin Slash, the version performed by the Gotthard Twinswords can be parried during the strong attack phase. However, the initial spin cannot be parried, which is still useful as most players will attempt to prediction-parry the opening attack rather than waiting out the spin before parrying. This characteristic gives the Gotthard Twinswords the unique position of being the only straight sword in the game with an attack that cannot be parried outside of a jumping attack.

The double-thrust at the end also allows the wielder to abuse the weapons' long reach to strike at enemies who think they're safe after dodging the initial spins.
