Ok so last night was my first time on sword duty on the Crota fight, everything is going swimmingly, I get the sword I'm sonic the hedgehoging it to position, everyone rockets the -blam!- out of his shield and I hop up expecting to CHOP CHOP CHOP the hell out of him but then instead I get a CHOP.......CHOP. For some reason my hunter resets his stance without chopping again, throws everyone off and all gets oversouled. Am I getting too close to him or is this some hidden nerf they snuck in an update?

Always happens to me, I really don't know why

Had the same thing a couple of weeks ago. My friends are still mocking my lazy hunter.

Hold forward on the left thumb stick when you chop. Also do this when you melee him for the blink strike to ensure the attack triggers invisibility.

Not sure on the stance reset other than the delay that has always been there when doing multiple heavy sword attacks. But it does sound like you are getting from the hiding spot to crota a little slow to be most effective you should have either be slashing in as rockets hit or trying to get your first smash as he begins to go down to kneel (mid kneel animation for most effectiveness)
