Something I'd like to run by you lads and see what you think.

At the moment, the special sword moves are a little bit on the trigger-happy side. A lot of people are telling me that they're doing them completely by accident, and that it's really frustrating to waste special meter like that.
Naturally, this is a Bad Thing and I'd like to try and rectify it.

Which do you think would be better?

1: Make the trigger be alt-fire instead of primary fire. You'd double-tap a direction and then hit that instead of primary. Since you'd theoretically be using the guns when already at a distance, there'd probably be less of a chance to trigger it.
2: Make a new keybind and key it solely to special attacks. Push a direction and a keybind and it triggers the special attack. This would also have the benefit of freeing up double-tapping so it could be used for dodging instead of Run + Direction, but some people are very picky about needing to bind new keys.
3: If you have a better option in mind or think of something that might be good, lemme know.
