[Loki is still fast, but he has many enemies to contend with, and few of his normal tricks. He blocks, parries, slashes, attacks and counter attacks. One enemy manages to score a hit on his shoulder, another on his leg. He buries his dagger in the throat of one cultists, but feels no return of his normal power. That wasn't the one.
Another, he batters down with a kick and drops on top of, driving the blade deep into the cultist's eye socket. Still nothing. Hel, have they gotten smarter lately?
Then he notices two soldiers stepping in front of a third, a blatantly protective posture. Ha. He focuses on battering them out of the way, not concerned when he kills, maims, or just stuns. There's not much art to the fight now, but in the thick of it, it's always about survival and reaction, not about looking impressive.
