I hope to post a video soon. Until then...
I want to know everyone's Darknut-killing combos. Here is the one I use on a first-phase Darknut: jump attack (lock + A), shield bash, helm splitter, various attacks on exposed back (provided other Darknuts aren't winding up to strike). In order for it to work, Link must follow through on the jump attack; if he hits and recoils then he won't have time to shield bash. In the event of multiple Darknuts, use the charged jump attack. That will distract the surrounding Darknuts while Link deals with the center one. If after the helm splitter the other Darknuts swing their weapons, I use the spin attack as my "various attacks" to damage the one and stun the others momentarily.
Once the Darknut switches to phase two, I use this combo: stab (lock + forward + attack), jump attack (lock + A), various attacks. Again, the jump attack follows through and leaves the Darknut open to attacks. The stab prevents the Darknut from evading (which he typically does if you try to simply jump attack first); it is quick and reaches far.
Any thoughts?
