Very late in the game those limb blows can actually be a detriment, since every strike you do to your opponent's limbs is one less blow that could kill them. If you're capable of one-shotting them with a hit to the torso, why would you waste time chopping off limbs one by one? I've died before due to not being able to kill whatever's blocking the way fast enough and getting caught by Danny/Urky.
yeah ive noticed when messing around in wiz mode with high stats that every enemie i fight i have to hack off their limbs first. wierd.
