Shortsword combo - double stab not working?

So I unlocked Double stab combo for the shortsword which is - Right - Left - stab - stab
However despite of me successfully landing the first Right side slash, I do not see the flashing combo sign on the Left side to pull off the combo. I also tried carrying on with Left slash and stabs but it does not seem to work.

Is this a bug or am I just being bad at timing?

Are you using a shield? Couse when i do IT, i can only do it without the shield same goes for halfswording

There are combos that are not possible with shield. Took me hours of doubting my sanity to realize that. I am changed now :crazy_face:

Thanks for the tip dude

FYI:

“Half Sword” is the one that gave me problems.
In retrospect it is kinda logical if you read the description since in “Half Sword” you use your swort with both hands to punch your opponent in the face with the hilt which is not possible while holding a shield.
