The r2 speed is acceptable in regards to the mandatory stance prep time but I do wish you could fire off the r1 instantly like with ds3 stance skills, or at least make it faster

Wait, if this can only be used on light greatswords, and there are only three light greatswords, with two of them having unique skills. Wouldn't that make this AOW a "unique" skill exclusive to Milady?

2k damage on r2 on dlc enemies achieved. Only problem is the initial startup time: your character needs to complete the stretching out of the arm before you can attack
I tested its R2 stance damage on Black knight before castle ensis. This black knight can take 2 unblockable blades and then R1 from coded sword staggers him. Unblockable deals 36 stance damage. Sothe knight breaks at 75 stance probably.
Same knight can take 2 R2s from wing stance and R1 from milady. That probably means, that wing stance R2 is 36 poise damage aswell. Which is actually really awesome considering how much damage it deals, range it covers and the fact you can dodge some low attacks for almost 3K damage counter attacks.
While awesome tho, lot of bosses have 120 stance in DLC. Meaning you need 4 consecutive wings to strike or 3 + another R2-R1 combo after that, which is still quite hard to do sometimes. Maybe safest option would be guardcounter and follow up with 3 wings.

It's only usable on Light Greatswords.
There's only one Light Greatsword that can receive Ashes of War.
And it doesn't start with this.
Just stretching out the DLC I guess
Not necessary
It just annoys people
When you make
something take longer

It's a shame something like this isn't on thrusting swords of any kind. This stance fits into the whole "regal swordsman" aesthetic.

Its a stance Skill, means you need preperation time.
The Light Attack chain lacks range and is dangerous when face enemies with longer range in my opinion. The Skill locks you in a 3hit Combo but Special/Shield Skills are not staggered a Black Knight NPC with 2h Hammer and Shield is not impressed.
3. The Heavy Attack is another number. Can be blocked so its no "Pierced Fang" but the Damage is big. Alexander Shard + Rellana Talisman are easy 1850 against Knights and over 2000 vs Soldiers. (lvl +24 with occult with only 499Atackpower)

Something to keep in mind: youre required to hold the stance for a bit before executing, might feel clunky at first.
Triple Swing punches a bit higher in poise damage tier than it's normals. You can link it into the dive very smoothly. It also returns to stance if you wanted to repeat it, but a bit slower than going into dive. Slow startup and lacks the forward momentum of its normals
Dive is basically a guaranteed headshot as long as you don't aim for their ass. Counter+Headshot is wild (throwing blades do it pretty handily too). Does pretty hefty poise damage, far more than LGS can manage with charged r2. Basically, neck swipe if it was good. Getting it called out makes you flail to the ground like waterfowl, lol
Can't believe we have a simple stance AoW where there's two distinct functions and one doesn't invalidate the other! Interesting to have an ash that's literally only usable on one weapon lol

It's heavy attack is pretty much Impaling thrust and it's primary attack is like a less all in waterfowl dance.
Overall it's a really good ash of war, the light greatswords feel great to use in general as it's attacks flow extremely well into each other.

Use this with Milady in any scaling you choose, then add a weapon buff spell, Rotten Winged Sword Talisman, Milicent's prothesis, Alexander's Jar shard, and Rellana's Cameo.. Congratulations, you just made a more pvp smart version of Waterfowl Dance.

a little sad we can't use this on scythes
imagine walking on wing stance with the blade pointing down, like sister friede

What is the point of not making this default AOW for Milady? There are only 3 light greatswords and 2 of them are somber upgrade so you cant change their AOW anyway.
After finishing the light attack triple slash, if you’re still holding down L2, you can press heavy to instantly follow up with the jump attack.
