Hi I've seen vidoes of this and have tried implementing it but I'm not sure how does one time the attacks and how to execute this. Is there a guide for this?

I noticed that it's basically moving at an attack step that forces the attack in another swing, therefore making attacks go faster if done right, but I dont know which swing and when to execute or how to move to get it done. Any advice would be great since I'm a fan of THF over TWF but without doing this right, I'll never get the dps that I would like lol.

depending just how many mobs are around you, it can actually be more benefical to stand still, but that also implies that they're low threat monsters, otherwise its more wise to twitch attack in order to kill them singularly asap in order to negate incoming damage

if they attack slow, or do pitiful damage, or are hung up on each other, then you'll do more damage overall by standing still if you're glancing on large groups

its trading 25 or so attacks per minute to gain 25% more glancing

Start by moving in any direction, then once you get your first moving attack in that sequence, stop moving. Your weapon should display the 2nd animation in the normal attack sequence (the one the goes down), then after that attack goes off, move again, etc.

I usually either move left or forwards, depending on the situation.

Left if the creature is small

Forwards if the creature is large, because when you move forwards you don't get shunted off to the side, you just run into it and don't move.
