Really strong Darknuts? Or is something wrong with my game?

I've fought Darknuts for a while now adn I've only fond one (w/ armor) that I can use Helm Splitter on.

Is something wrong with my game or is there really only one with armor you can use Helm Splitter on?

You can, by using Shield Attack then Helm Splitter. Of course, when the command comes up. There was one video in Google Video.

Anyways, it's normal.

(Wait for a command) (A sign at the bottom of the screen)

Edit: It makes their helmet fall off first!

Eh. You just have to try hard. I don't really think it's worth it, but it's fun. If you just like, shield bash over and over, you'll get a hit eventually. And I believe I pulled it off by doing a back roll then shield bashing or something.

Using a helmsplitter on them is as easy as sitting on your ass. All you do is slash with your sword, the command to shield bash will come up, so shieldbash, then the command for the helmsplitter comes up, so do helmsplitter.

That's all there is to it, easy.
