light attack weaving

What does light attack weaving mean?

The bread-and-butter rhythm of ESO endgame: fire a light attack, cast an ability, repeat. Done clean, you're basically doubling your damage output for free. Get the timing wrong and you clip your own attack.

"My parses were trash until I locked in my light attack weaving, now I'm pulling 90k easy."

Origin

The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) combat scene, where animation-cancelling a light attack into an ability is core to high-end DPS.

Frequently asked questions

Is light attack weaving the same as animation cancelling?
It's a form of it. Weaving slots the light attack in so its animation gets cancelled by your next ability, no wasted frames, more damage.
