About this mod
Nerf Counter Rising Slash's damage and damage reduction to match the beta's values, making it take a lot more chip damage and not optimal for punishing most moves (turning it into an emergency tool). In exchange Double Slash and Triple Slash get slightly buffed damage, making it more worth it to go for those combos even in Amp.

Purpose of this mod is to nerf Counter Rising Slash to make it not optimal over actually dodging with Switch Axe. I always saw the weapon's design as lacking the defensive options of other weapons but instead having great damage output and flexible attacks and needing to play around monsters with good movement. The weapon getting a more powerful and effective counter than Lance feels like it really doesn't fit the design of the weapon and rewards you for countering many attacks instead of trying to out-position.
The Beta version of the weapon actually had the parry much weaker, and I thought it was well balanced there, so I attempted to restore the values to be similar to the beta. Now Counter Rising Slash is an emergency option to be used when you cant dodge an attack and want to take less damage or when you know that an attack doesn't deal much damage at all so its worth taking some chip to keep a favorable position.
In exchange for these nerfs, I felt Double Slash and Triple Slash were very weak in this game as their damage was far below all other Sword mode attacks, meaning they were only used for building amp and are terrible otherwise. This doesn't make sense for triple slash given how much commitment is needed to get to it, so I increased the damage of that combo a bit.
Changelog:
Counter Rising Slash use cost increased from 10 to 20 amp gauge.
Chip damage on successful Counter increased from 30% to 45%
Chip damage on Successful Just Counter increased from 10% to 40%
2nd hit of Rising Counter Slash MV nerfed from 50 to 35
Triple Slash 1st hit MV increased from 15 to 25
Double Slash 1st hit (Triple Slash 2nd hit) MV increased from 22 to 27
Double Slash 2nd hit (Triple Slash 3rd hit) MV increased from 26 to 30
