>having fun with PK
>still lose a lot of matches against good players

if Ubi nerfs her i'm still gonna have fun with my beloved PK and i'll still lose matches against good players, but i'll keep beating shitters, and shitters will keep screaming OP, cause that's what they do when they lose, no matter what character they're beaten by
>>
>>170928103
just make her zone not completely unpunishable/unreactable on top of having insane range and being cancelable in revenge
>>
>>170928460

some people say that PK's shouldn't be able to cancel the second swing, but i think that's a bad idea, it would make it completely useless

giving zone attack an internal cooldown of 1-2 seconds would be better, can't be spammed during revenge mode

they could also make her zone attack 12 frames like Warden and Orochi instead of 9 frames, but i think 99% of people will still eat it and people will still complain that it's too fast

i don't think Ubi will touch her light attack speed though, a more likely balance change is that Ubisoft makes guard stance switch speed the same on all characters, as it should be

Rep 12 PK here

What needs to be done to bring her in line is most of the damage from the zone needs to be moved to the second attack. Initial damage halved. It's versatility would make a LB proud, but it's too good. Can't nerf the speed for the same reason you can't do it to Orochi and Warden, without those existing it just reinforces the turtle meta. It's one of few tools that can pierce them.

The second attack on the light chain needs to have about 200ms added to the recovery to slow the spam down, which can be circumvented IF you continue the chain into the heavy at the end. However, this extra recovery time can not lead to being caught in an untechable guard break.

Do these things and PK will be in line. It will make the class harder for scrubs to abuse, but the actual experienced players won't be affected much. Also take off the extra range on the attacks. That was a retarded change.
>>
Should I buy this game?

It looks cool, but I'm kinda apprehensive, based on what people said about it, so I decided to ask here.
>>
>>170931884
Not worth 60$.
>>
>>170930734
PK doesn't need a zone like that when she has lights that fast. The orochi and warden zones are as fast as their tops (Warden's zone is also incredibly punishable).

Honestly, any class which already has 2-3 attacks for initiating doesn't need a powerful zone since it's redundant with a side light. "just block right" is also not a good way to go about defending against a character that causes you to guess that much.

The 1v1 modes are for 1v1, what part of this is remotely difficult to understand? Killing people quick enough to help teammates and avoid being ganked yourself is part of this gamemode, that is what the devs intended.
>>
Trying to find a main knight, any advice ? I started with the Warden, long swords being cool and all and making me feel like a hero. But after some time it feels just too basic, a bit bland, should charge to zone and so on.

Then I went to the Lawbringer, but it feels a bit too passive for me. I quickly run out of stamina when I go on the offensive to deal only like half of the Warden damage but I liked that he required some technique and thinking. I guess it's a more advanced class and I'm just a casual player playing from time to time.

So I went to the Peacekeeper. The opposite of the Lawbringer, I could be aggressive and deal plenty of damage. I'm even getting good at the dodge into attacks and stab move. Kinda not my style to play as some small waif character and I kinda miss the technicality of the Lawbringer but don't want to go back to his crap stamina and damage.

So now I'm at the Conqueror and I'm not sure about him. I like that he has a faster block than the supposedly defensive Lawbringer while having some ok damage, but what is there to him ? The charged attack is very predicable and the only way to cancel it to dodge of full guard meaning no feinting into a quick attack. What's his thing ? How technical is he ?

Pk
>>
>>170951757
Warden is good. Learn how to effectively use your tools and that feeling of simplicity passes. Warden has mix ups for days.

Lawbringer is passive, yeah. All he has going for him is parrying and environmental kills. He's also a toptier bully in teamfights, though, so if you play mainly 4v4 maybe try sticking near a teammate and being the supporting ganker.

PK is super good but also braindead easy. Light spam mixed in with some zones and a GB now and again will eat most people alive. Doing anything even remotely advanced with her is leagues less effective than chipping away with lights.

Conq is also very strong, but he's a little less braindead than PK. Only a little, though. Most of what he does is shoulder spam and turtle. Shoulder bash is a strong offense, and you naturally have a strong defense with full stance and a shield. Really all you do is punish people for attacking, or bash spam if they're not.

Choice is yours, really.

Ubi just needs to punish quitters. It might be their servers fucking up but more often then not it's one asshole that can't stand a single fucking loss.

Problem is, they can't take away things like the in game currency from those shits because you can buy it and taking something away that someone may have spent actually money on previously is egregious.

The only recourse is to exile quitters to their own hosting service for a bit but that shit doesn't really work either since the servers are peer to peer.

Quitters should be getting temp bans, increasing in time depending how often you're quitting.
The problem is they can't even implement punishment for quitting because people get dropped from games all the fucking time, and the game won't be able to tell if you quit on your own, or are just dropped thanks to the connection

There are characters whose entire kit are just unfun to be be on the receiving hand of. I'm not talking about powerlevels at all here. Taking control away from someone (CC) as well as downtimes aren't fun. I can say for sure that i'd rather play against a warlord and feel in control of my character than fighting a valk and none of my inputs matter for 50% of the fight because my ass is on the ground. It's also not fun to fight a nobushi that plays keep away because you're not actually fighting most of the time.
Too many times I feel like devs only consider one side when designing characters : Will the player enjoy using X?
It's possible to design moves that are cool for both players or at least don't annoy the shit out of the receiving hand. I think crushing counters are great, so are parriable unblockables like the raider's zone or even his heavy soft feints since they demand a good measure of interaction between both players.

Please explain to me how it's easy taking on someone who has an attack buff, full health, and a full shield. Unless they're a complete shitter they have a massive advantage over you. They hit harder, and can take much more damage before you can kill them

It's ridiculous, you can't punish this shit. A smart Valk will NEVER bash unless she knows for a fact it will hit. And all she has to do is dodge an attack and shield bash, and you can't dodge it in time.

Meanwhile when she's in her shield bash stance you can't hit her, and if you try to GB her she'll just bash you before you can.

Not to mention nonstop combos, hard hitting attacks and sweeps

Is anyone else noticing this weird bug/exploit Orochi's get with their right side zone?

It'll show a false indicator that it's an overhead attack but as soon as you are hit it'll switch to showing a right side zone animation and indicator. Meaning that every fucking time you wanna block that upper it's gonna be a fucking right zone attack. All my what?

zone attacks are done with light attack + heavy attack inputs together

this means that, because humans aren't perfect, most zones are a light or heavy attack in any direction, then turned into a zone a couple frames later

The only real way for them to do this is to drastically reduce the delay between pushing the two buttons.
As for the Orochi thing, that's because it's literally one of the two things they have going for them.

I was a Kensei/Nobushi main and yeah, warlords were frustrating to fight -- moreso on the latter. Kensei I could sort of crack the shell but it was an uphill battle. With Warden, I feel more confident, and while it's still rough I actually sort of kind of enjoy it..?

Guard break is guaranteed off of parry, not block. As for the bash thing, you don't have much outside of that and pretty much rely on people making the first move.

I've just fought a valk who believed the zone was an unblockable. Here's a blogpost :

At the end of the match she asked me why I spammed the unblockable and I asked if she was talking about the shoulder charge which I barely used (like 3 times out of 3 rounds) since she knew how to punish it. She said she meant the zone. I told her it was because she never blocked right (her left), even after being hit by a zone or after blocking a top light. She replied that it made sense but she thought it couldn't be blocked.

She wasn't a bad valk at all, she knew how to combo and had a few reps. I'm just confused at how someone could believe something that fast was an unblockable. Maybe she believes all zones are unblockable because she mains raider or something?

>inb4 "zone is too fast" is what she meant
I'm 100% sure she thought the mechanics of the games didn't allow it to be blocked.

People are still in the process of getting good against her. There will always be whining. Remember when everyone complained about Warden?
>>
>>170961556
I'm not him, but roll away, or dodge left or right. Though often instead of the sweep I'll do a guard break to catch people who try to dodge. Rolling completely breaks my combo every time though. If you're quick and an assassin, you can do a dodge attack like the orochi's spin attack or the zerker's spin attack. But against assasins I'll often just stop the chain after the second like, because I know they're gonna do that, then I just parry.

so yeah roll
>>
>>170961556
Block one of the lights? Now you are at neutral.

Parry those lights that the valk throws out. Punish her tight ass.

I've been getting parried throwing out lights a lot as valk recently. Need to change it up.

Is there a list of confirms for each character anywhere?
I don't think I have raider down yet and I am considering leveling up conq, kensei and nobushi but would like some idea of what to look for.
I saw some videos in the op but they seemed a little bit blathery, and if the comments can be trusted, a little lacking.
>>
>>170961339
Conqueror is high tier like nobushi but he's not what shitters call him "broken". PK Valk warlord and warden are pretty up there on the broke scale but conq has to fall on a lot of bashing and GBS and lights and reaction. The class only does well when your enemy is fucking up by swinging like crazy or spamming gb. We eat shot again PKs, Shugoki's, Roaches, Valks and LB sometimes. It's a fucking weird game of cat n mouse with us. I think if they nerf conq he would drop to mid/low tier if it's his start up or recovery frames.

>>
>>170960665
What if a whiffed bash were consistently punishable? This would create an actual level of mindgames where the Warden is incentivized to go for the "safe" GB cancel, which means the enemy knows that's the more likely option to defend against... or the Warden could take the risk and go for the raw bash, and possibly get punished for it.

>>170962101

You don't seem to understand what a punish is in fighting game terminology.

A punish is damage that you get simply for blocking a sequence of attacks.

If blocking a sequence just puts you at neutral, then the attack is safe. Not punishable.

Fake news. You can't play 4v4 in this game without getting an error.

>>170961840
To be fair you shouldn't be able to punish someone midcombo, I don't think any fighting game allows that. In the case of valk you ate up to two lights before failing to dodge (correct me if you can't dodge it after a light), and in warden's case you got hit by a top light and guessed wrong. There need to be some sort of debt to be paid after fucking up so much. The problem is when the combo can reset infinitely. Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about starting it in neutral again because it's your fault if you get tricked twice, I'm talking about chaining it until you run out of stamina. The problem with nerfing that though is that those two tools are very good against enemies who are out of stamina and that needs to be a dangerous state.
>>
>>170962125
Pretty much the same way you play lawbringer, except you really need to be able to wall people and convert their exhaustion into a grab for some nice damage and what might be a 50/50 on the standup if you have the stamina to feint a zone attack.

You also need to be able to parry lights for that nice heavy convert (might be able to get a top heavy, not sure yet)

Its a lot of fun at least.

Can someone tell me why the FUCK my parries arent working?

If you get hit in a 2 chain and you miss the first parry (try to parry but get hit) does that mean you can't parry the 2nd hit?
>>
>>170962051
Both of those are punished by just throwing a light, making the safest play to feint it and get a parry at best or reset to neutral at worst. I wouldn't mind having the regular bash be more easily punishable, but if you allow all classes to get a light off after dodging it, the current mechanics will also allow a GB. Right only parries and the warden's zones grant safe heavies so I believe it's too much of a punish.

Most of the complaints I see about the shoulder charge is there's no way to punish it 100% of the time. It seems kind of silly. I mean, that's like making the shoulder charge a heavy, right?
Some people also think the shoulder charge can parry, push and GB at the same time as if it was an automatic win button. I'm personally 90% sure that you can't cancel the shoulder charge on reaction which means that you're rolling the same dices as the warden and only one of those things will happen, but if i'm wrong, it shouldn't be. You can also opt not to roll the dices at all for a stamina cost.

In 1v1s and 2v2s the connection is pretty decent, but in 4v4's they are just awful. People constantly get disconnected or have errors and get booted back to the main menu. It doesn't help that all it takes for something like this to occur sometimes is for one ragequit to happen.
>>
>>170964221
They seem to have gotten worse since release and the recent patch. It's honestly a very fun game but Ubisoft is struggling to make it work consistently. 1v1 and 2v2 almost always work if you're interested in those. The balance issues are another thing that needs to be addressed but ubisoft once again fucks up by saying they're going to take more time since they screwed up with valk's nerf (and now buff). If you watch their devstream you can see that they study the game's problems religiously (and they've fixed some) but their implementations of some of the fixes are just bad or incredibly slow. Content also seems to be drip fed, with server side updates unlocking content every week (meaning that's cut shit that was already finished a long time ago).

A few moves' stun leave you with just enough time to only block, but they're rare. Most chains allow you to parry the second hit. Whether you're fast enough to parry it is another question.

I once played against a rep 5 conquerer as a lawbringer, all he did was shield bash.

Then he said that conquerer, on a tier list, was lower even than lawbringer.

Fellow Judges,
I've slapped a mess of different designs together and made a few styles

Question is, which style should I go with?

I'm at rep 7, I think I probably have most set pieces, so I can mix and match them if needed

Personally I like the middle weapon and right armor most, but I want to hear your opinions
Suggestions are also welcome
(like what set pieces you like, other than what I used, maybe you can even post your versions of the LAW)

How do you go from making a class OP to Shit back to being really fucking good.

They should remove the ability of Valk where she can just chain a light attack after missing a shield bash. You can't even GB her if she just hits a light, which can be combod into sweep.
Also remove the ability to sweep already downed opponents, like shugoki hug or long arm.

You can full block immediately after it lands and pushes you before the warden throws out his attack. Off of the block you can get a headbutt into stab, a stab, or a slash. All for free. If he tries to guardbreak, you can tech it. If he cancels, you aren't trying to attack him so he can't get a parry. It's a hard counter.

That just means that shit players get shit matchmaking forever.

Since 95% of the player base is shit, that would be pretty bad for the health of the game.

>>170972126
I'm honestly fucking pissed about how much gear matters in the game. Even if you outskill the other person significantly they will usually end up winning because of how often they get revenge, and how much of a health bonus they get from revenge.
The only way to deal with someone with revenge gear when you don't have it is to ledge or spike them
>>170972375
Yes it's complicated, but when they're making gear exclusive to higher reps and gear gives a massive fucking advantage they may as well make it rep based.
They should have never made armor more than cosmetic. It's a skill based game that gives you a handicap for having good gear

because that's how you play this game at high level, you are at a 100% disadvantage for initiating an attack that isn't a feint.

1. They dont wanna be seen as edgy PK-tier teenagers. (Understandable, imo)
2. Generally, the SUPER FAST ASSASSINO NUTHEN PERSUNALL KEDDO XDD characters are the "hard to be very good with, but still incredibly annoying, unfun and hard to balance" in these sorts of games.
3. On the flip side, the slow, tanky guys are usually much slower, with an overall lower skill ceiling (generally speaking again, here) and are much less frustrating. Losing/winning as and/or against them is a lot more enjoyable for many people.
4. The shit characters are unpopular. Snowflake complex ensues. Ties into reason 1, but more hipster-reasoning on this one.

5. For Honor specifically: Lawman is fucking awesome and also sucks giant dicks fuck you ubisoft buff my ledgeman you pieces of shit

Oh really.
Your options to open someone up are;

i don't have a huge background with fighting games, got kinda into Soul Calibur, but do they always have shitty defensive metas like this? what happens if attacking becomes a good idea?
>>
>>170973702
I can see that. They should maybe halve the throw distance on him. That way, with the vikings, you'd have someone like raider who can carry you a long way one direction, or warlord who can do so in any direction half the distance. That'd make sense to me, desu
>>
>>170973569
Pk is COMPLETELY broken. She's on Warlords tier, far above every other class with Conqueror in the middle of the powergap.

Well yeah you have to feint, hard and soft, like a motherfucker.
But you can still do it, whereas as Dredd you admittedly have to deploy even more effort.

Raider can also defend himself way easier with his guard switch speed.

well you have these two things, one of them is called a dodge, the other is called a light attack

both of these things can actually beat the headbutt, not even joking, new tech

you can even GB him if you dodge!!!!
>>
>>170973485
That's why I said "in a broken way".

If you use a class that's considered OP, but you use it in way that actually requires some skill, then that's fine.

You rarely ever see it, but if there's a peacekeeper/warlord going around parrying literally everything, that's impressive. I'm not gonna bash the class choice then, because they won because of skill, not the class.

>>170973569

>>170973816
Yeah, both raider and LB are ok in 4v4. They're better gankers than anything. Raider can come out of nowhere with with a hard-hitting unblockable (just throw a swing first so you get the combo bonus) and secure ganks like no-one else.

LB has a lot of control options, most notably the ability to lock revenging players down with flip spam. Salt ensues. Also, feat-wise, lots of bombs.

As a Warlord player with a 5 Rep Warlord, I do feel he is too strong, simply because he has too many tools at his disposal that are all strong.

>Ridiculous throw range for every angle
>Armored heavy attacks
>Fast side light attacks
>Full Block Stance
>Top Heavy off of a Guard Break
>Headbutt combos into Light attack for free damage
>Headbutt is pretty spammable thanks to low Stamina cost, and is a good way to open up a defense that alot of characters like Raider simply do not have
>Headbutt is very fast
>Running Shield carry
>Superior Block Lights
>Great damage
>Revenge Mode Headbutts knock down
>Feats make him extremely durable as well as an auto-Revive

I can fully admit that Warlord has too many tools at his disposal and I am not against the idea of him being toned down. I'm still going to play him after the nerfs.
>>
>>170973830
>Dodge
It only works half the time for me, I swear that shit is heatseaking at time.
I'm not here to add on the shitfest that's going on about warlord though, I just want to know if I've been the only one encountering warlord that do a 45° mid-headbutt.
>>
>>170974040
You forgot the mixup with his full block into side heavy which is basically a second zoning attack.
>>
>>170973728
Fighting games tend to not have parry mechanics, or if they do they are very hard to do, unless it's 3S and you can OS parry. For Honor parrying is way, way too easy.
>>
>>170974039

>>
>>170973569
imo Warlord is the best character in the game while still barely being in the realm of fair. If his headbutt didn't track 360 degrees sometimes I'd have no problems with him desu.

PK is the only broken character.
>>
>>170953456
this is why the game is dead within a month, just like evolve
>>
>>170974132
I kinda agree, I feel like heavies should be unparryable, and parrying a light doesn't even give you a GB, just a light hit > setup
>>
If Peacekeeper is so powerful, why wasn't Apollyon a Peacekeeper?

Checkmate, PKtheists.
>>
>>170974132
I honestly don't think it'd be bad to make parry more difficult to pull off.
I have no trouble at all parrying things unless it's a peacekeeper sperging out, or in the contrary, very, VERY slow ass characters that occasionally fuck me off.
>>
>>170974273
At high level Warlord IS the be all and end all character. Every tourney is either won by a warlord or a peacekeeper, and more warlords win than PKs because he's just got so many defensive options that not even PK can get in without losing health.
>>
>>170973886
I meant assassins in general when I mentioned that archetype, I shouldve specified a bit.

I feel as though Orochi and Zerker both take a bit of skill to truly be great with. And another thing, is that whether not there IS skill involved, the high apm of these sorts of characters induces a FEELING of skill in their players. So even if they DONT take a lot of skill (I.E. Peacekeeper), they can create a playerbase that vehemetly defends them on the grounds of difficulty rewards, because many of them truly believe that they are in fact that good. Because the characters are DESIGNED to make you feel fast and effective damage dealers. This is a dangerous feeling because it often shields unfair characters from proper changes, such as Lee Sin from League of Legends or PK right now. The players not only genuinely believe that they are truly on an even playing field, but also see it as plebs looking up and trying to weaken the skilled players. Obviously im still speaking generally, but I do get the feeling here in For Honor. We even have the flipside of "M-my character is weaker! Your character is op! It isnt my fault!" people who shift the blame to the game off of their own insecurities.

The only time she went up against a peacekeeper she got a dagger pushed through plate armor.

>>170974309
I honestly think the game should just do away with parries and adopt some sort of "advanced block" system where you hit the block direction just as the attack is about to hit you. All you would be able to get off of it is a free heavy attack in additon to draining more stamina. That and increase block damage.

I don't know how they are going to address the turtling meta because half the problem is parrying in this game is way too easy.
>>
>6k people playing

Forcibly take out the red indicator completely, or at least the flash, which so many people seem to rely on.

Leave it in some "training mode" that new people/bad people want to go into, but for everything else, take it out.

Of course, this doesn't address full block, but parrying/blocking will be much more difficult.

>but muh ranked is coming

This should be a change in the rest of the game modes, too.

I do agree that a lot of attacks aren't telegraphed in the best way, but peacekeepers second lights are pretty much impossible to parry anyway, unless you're a god.
>>
>>170974672
The thing about parries is if you reduce the reward you from it there is no point to it. Unless parrying just heavily drained the opponents stamina and running out of stamina in this game is made more punishable.

>make feints better

How and why, feinting is already part of the turtle meta because it goes hand in hand with parrying.
>>
>>170974672
all of those suggestions would just make PK even more OP than she already is, like stupidly so

>Make feints a LOT fucking better

It should be depended on class 2 class. Vanguards and Hybirdstake Half Damage. Heavies take Quarter, Assassin's take 3/5th.

>>
>>170974603
I'd be fine with this but when I was playing story mode on realistic it was almost impossible to tell which way Orochi was swinging because they all look the same.
>>
>>170974784
feinting is awful since the feint actually takes place before the parry window even begins, most people can just wait and see if you're going to feint it or not

heavy chip damage will incentivize parries just fine by itself as a way to avoid the chip

>>170974875
I did say to balance the roster

>>170974880
yes, but that's because he has a builtin soft feint mechanic, other characters do as well but he's the only one that can follow it up quickly due to side dash attacks actually being speedy

feinting a heavy into a light should be faster than your opponent's failed parry attempt, if they even attempt one at all
>>
>>170974776
I can parry them occasionally and the frequency that I can is increasing. The thing is, I can nearly ALWAYS block them unless I get fucked by a whiff I tried to parry. I can turtle against a PK and could ALWAYS block turtle against a PK if she didn't have her fucking 9 frame almost imperceptible literally unblockable on reaction by several classes zone. Without those indicators though, PK would be absolutely unstoppable, essentially unblockable, and would blow every other class away in a storm of light attacks while she rotates the attack direction.
>>
>>170974672
>>170974784
Some characters already barely benefit off parries depending on the match up, just make it a lot harder rather than making it "just give a light lol :^)"

if you reduce the reward from parries, the match becomes less about them, as long as other mechanics are present

heavy chip damage > people will want to parry heavies, so if the attacker doesn't get completely btfo, the defender's only route is to attack in turn

don't make defense harder per se, just make it less rewarding or introduce better offensive mechanics

Steel is actually pretty easy to come by if you always do your dalies. On average you should be pulling in 1500 per day.

Depends on how secure they think the Steel economy is for For Honor. If they're cracking down on AFK farmers now then the characters would cost Steel instead of real money.

How much Steel they'll cost is anyone's guess.
My theory though is that you'll be able to play the characters offline but it'll throw up the paywall when you go to use the character in PvP or PvE

The running theory is that the DLC characters will function the same as current characters: free for everyone to play, but you have to spend Steel in order to "own" them so that you can level and customize them; the difference is that, being DLC heroes, they will have a massively inflated Steel cost. If you bought the season pass, you will own all the DLC characters when they're released at no Steel cost and will get access to them a week early.

I had some questions

1. Is PKs problem her ability to tech into Zone or is the ability itself the problem? Or is it both? If so, which is the bigger problem?

2. How many people can do the overhead light-zone thing?

3. Is it even supposed to be in the game? Or is it a bug?

nah dude lol PK zone is totally fair and reactable lol like just parry it lol doesn't matter that it's unpunishable on block lol

you can literally react to anything with the ability and win, it's silly when Warden has an equal range, slower speed zone that's unsafe on block, and people call THAT cheap

everyone can, see >>170960696

I wanna say both. The tech is difficult to respond to because you expect a top attack, but then it comes out ridiculously fast from another direction. But even without that, it's still ridiculously fast.

It's not hard to do. Just press light attack a bit earlier than heavy.

I don't think it's supposed to be in the game, but I don't think it should be removed unless they figure out some other way to break through people's defenses.

I feel like it should be removed because the only classes with zones fast enough to use as a mixup already do well without it. Only class I could see really needing it is Orochi.

Their launch-day numbers are entirely wrong, as starters. Launch day had up to 98k players, and higher at multiple times - yet lets not use those numbers.
There's zero backing of the numbers to any reputable source like any journalist worth a shit would actually have as an addition to their story.

>Warden is good. Learn how to effectively use your tools and that feeling of simplicity passes. Warden has mix ups for days.

How so, what makes him good in team battles ? Is it the charging stab ? Or blind justice ?

>PK is super good but also braindead easy. Light spam mixed in with some zones and a GB now and again will eat most people alive. Doing anything even remotely advanced with her is leagues less effective than chipping away with lights.
Didn't think of the PK zone attack, might need to try it. I mainly go for lunges, grabs into stabs and occasional light attack along with dodge attacks.

>Conq is also very strong, but he's a little less braindead than PK. Only a little, though. Most of what he does is shoulder spam and turtle. Shoulder bash is a strong offense, and you naturally have a strong defense with full stance and a shield. Really all you do is punish people for attacking, or bash spam if they're not.
Funny thing, I try to punish people but can't seem to land heavies after a parry.

The worst part is that the Vikings has been pretty shit all round long, and then suddenly they just go on a big flux of power - exactly like last round. Gee, I wonder if it's rigged or not. The most obvious part was when Samurai Stronghold was 1 tile away from getting captured not once, but twice and they suddenly just happen to be able to retaliate it all away and gain like 15+ tiles in 2 turns just like that.

The war map means nothing to me at this point. I just do it so I can hope to get some scavenger boxes, pretty much.

Because of the stance decay.

Because it confuses opponents and leaves them wary of attacks and feints coming from either direction.

>Win

Three reasons

a) attack is so fast they won't make it to react
b) even if they dodge attack, berserker can turn a missed attack in to a cancel with dodge -> dodge attack
c) they're trying to bait a reaction because they know a combo will get denied

Basically, there's no risk
Nobody has the reflexes to parry a surprise light attack from god knows which direction

People underestimate how op a zerker can be

>>
>>170979719

I don't know why you'd save that webm of mine, but hey.
Primarily, it's to confuse. Berserkers don't really have a way to get in on people easily, so you have to rely on being confusing and poking with lights a lot of the time. It works less against people you need to be reactionary against, like Warden and PK since you need to be able to block most directions on the fly there. Works better with a mouse, but I've sadly already locked my muscle memory into a pad, so, I have little choice but to be a subpar Berserker.

>>170980894
>Nobody has the reflexes to parry a surprise light attack from god knows which direction

Except everyone who has half a reaction. It's not very difficult to block it, even LBs and Raiders can do it on reaction as long as they block on the actual attack and don't try to keep switching. The primary problem people have with it, is that the telegraph is very subtle, and the indicator has the same problem as the Warlord's where the Berserker's lights are not really timed with the animation itself. Which is noticable when you get hit, because you get hit at the start of the front arc, rather than at the apex of it.

Every single time a Berserker attacks is a risk, because if you lose that momentum where you have them guessing and have to be defensive, you're already on a losing-track.

Even some of the fastest attacks in the game, you have enough time to not only feint to cancel a swing, but to parry them on reaction in the same action. Berserker's lights are just weird for people, since they don't fight many berserkers to begin with. The only one you can't, is PK's zone but that is still fairly parryable.

see, this is exactly why zerker feints are so good
You are forced to switch guard / attempt parry at the very same instant, and in that instant the berserker has already thrown a new attack or guardbreak
>>
>>170981665
Not him but if you don't play Warden, Warlord, Conq, or assassins in any 4v4 mode you set yourself up for nothing but frustration.

>>170981665

>Grabbing the buffs is cancerous
The buffs aren't there for me not to use. And it needs reworking, but I think the buffs can be useful for when my entire team is shitters who can't kill their fucking guy. Gives me some chance of fighting 3 people by myself
>>
>>170981957
no, but the only light attacks you should try to parry is when he dodgeattacks forward or sideways

The timing is too clutch, you'd save yourself from the risk of getting hit than the reward of punishing them unreliably
>>
>>170981957
Kensei's last feat allow him to make EVERY attack unblockable.
So you either git gud at parry or keep your distance.
>>
>>170981854

You're not forced to do that at all, no. That's the groundbreaking secret to fighting a Berserker. You don't need to do anything. If you just stand there and wait, you can block everything on sheer reaction because none of their attacks are faster than any character's guard-swap, outside of those 4 - if they're already in the middle of a guard-swap, and then you still have to swing WHILE they're guard-swapping which means you basically need to predict where they're gonna guard and hit.

Other than that, just wait, and block, parry when they get aggressive and win. I just taught you how to beat the highest level of Berserker, because it's simply a limitation with their kit. They can dodge, feint, swing and attack but as long as you just keep cool and react to the blocks and parry the heavy attacks - they literally can't crack you open. I'm saying this as someone who's closing in on Rep 11 as Berserker, so, while I'm not the best Berserker from a statistical standpoint, I'm probably gonna hit about 750 games with Berserker today. So I've had to deal with this shit for close to 70 hours of Berserker game-time.

Yeah, like you when you run away from your target

if you are alone vs many, you have no choice but to fight, theres no other way, because they will take the buffs too. Them getting the buffs is way more likely than you getting them, therefore giving the already advantaged team an even bigger advantage

same with feats, people who get first few kills have a massive feat advantage, and those who lost once have a harder time to come back from it.

Anyone defending cancerous playstyle in cancerous gamemode while accusing others of cancerous playstyle are just hypocrites and assholes who just look for excuses

Vikings are barely making a pushback as of now, but the absolute bullshit that was the first wave of weeb can't seem to be contained.
We can only hope to hold onto as much territory as possible and tank the hit.

I think the riddle of samurai victory has a very simple answer: when you have a very small amount of provinces then you have more forces distributed there even if you don't distribute them manually. And kniggas were pretty stupid when pushing the samurai stronghold when vikings had 28 provinces.

>>170986671
Are you new, or just dense?

When any faction starts losing territory, they get an increasing boost to war asset gains, to the point that even if one side numbers only a third of an opposing factions population, the beleaguered side will be able to recoup lost territory.

It's a pointless tug of war that has no value to anyone.

What does "rate this game" thing even do? Is that some placebo-tier thing that Ubi included just because?

I always rate games vs PK 1 star just in case.
>>
>>170986430

>how the fuck is it that you pretend to be good with berserker

I even outright state time and time again that I'm not good, I just play them a lot. But I keep forgetting that this is /vg/ and people only read the parts they want to read.

>and you dont even know you can cancel his recovery with a dodge?

Because in most cases, all you're doing is giving them an untechable GB if you dodge your recovery immediately, and a free parry if you dodge-attack. It's not a matter of knowing, it's a matter of the worse of the evils when it comes to recovery as most people try to punish a miss with a GB, which you will then be able to tech at the very least. It also sets up so that if they try to punish your recovery with a heavy or something, you can deflect them by surprise.

Not to mention, people who are actually good will hit their punish for a miss before your recovery-dodge frames even become available. That's more a thing if you miss something and they have to move up to you.

I'll be honest with you, I only come to this thread to do ctrl + f searches for the keyword "dead."

The timing on it is really tight. Go into duel practice and practice it.
>>

>they win

kek
>>
>>170987510
you're fucking retard who kept telling how easy it is to react to """"""slow"""""" shit, so how come you say it's a free GB if you dodge right after your opponent? they will never make it to GB you, especially if you go for a dodge attack.

Besides, if you miss an attack, there can only be two reasons why
you did a combo in air or they dodged it

if they dodged, they can't guardbreak immediately after.

They'll go for an attack or shove after a dodge anyway

Is it true that somehow you can buy a good gear with real money? If it's that then it's not different from a fucking p2w game. Fucking hell I can barely afford the gold edition. I'm really conflicted to buy this game right now.

Just do some extra chores and your mom will give you that fat pay
>>
>>170988620
you can buy steel to buy gear packs and aesthetics but you cant buy the gear prematurely (ie buying gear packs at rep 1 is useless and you'll be worse off than if you did at rep 3)

imo its a waste of money to buy steel for gear because you're given it for free at random at the end of each round

so yes, while it's possible, it offers no real advantage and the gear is no better than what you can get without paying
>>
>>170988620
Yes, somewhat.

The in-game currency is steel, and you can buy steel using real money. However, you can grind steel in the game, just playing the game itself, but it takes a considerable amount of time.

You can use steel to buy crates, which give you a chance of getting good gear, and you need steel to upgrade that gear further. You have to level up your character to reputation 3 before doing this, though, because otherwise, the gear you get will end up being useless later on.

So yes, you can essentially make things faster and easier by buying steel using real money, but you can still do it for free.

If you're getting the gold edition for the season pass, don't bother, if you can only barely afford it. The developers have said that all DLC will be available for purchase by using steel, which means you can grind for it. Season pass just lets you skip that grind, and get new characters a week before everyone else does.

Wait so basically, you're buying something that can be obtained for free? Okay, got it. Also, it seems like I misunderstood about the gold edition. I thought only the people who bought the gold edition can get the new character. Yeah, I know I'm retarded as fuck. Either way, thanks for the input. You literally helped me not waste $40 for a season pass.
>>
>>170989208
honesly i wish i bought the deluxe edition for the sunlight executions, but oh well

everything can be obtained in this game for free though, so dont bother using actual money unless you want the bonus rewards (like sunlight emotes etc)
>>
>>170989208
Just so you're prepared, it takes kind of a long time to save up enough steel to buy everything you want.

Personally, I would never pay money for steel, because it's just a game, but I can understand why some people would.

But if you don't mind a grind, then you'll be fine as a free player.
>>
>>170988630
give everyone the same slow ass zone attack
>>
>>170989625
I am really competitive though. I am that kind of guy who struggles in a p2w game just to at least match a paid player. (Perhaps, I even try too hard). Also, I really enjoyed the open beta. Would have bought it immediately if it wasn't for NieR:Automata, yet region blocked so I'm spending it on this game.

that would be better but would not fix the game's myriad of problems
>>
>>170989790
This, zone attacks should be just that.
When you think about it, all the characters with a fast ZA are top tier.
It should be the slowest attack in your moveset, not the fastest one.
>>
Any way of opening up opponents playing as a zerker? When they get too defensive it's really hard to get anything on them other than laughably low dmg lights.

Feint into GB
Feint into dash attack
Feint into light
And if you're going for a chain, don't alternate left right but be unpredictable by going twice on the same side or using top lights.

I miss Lewdkeeper.
>>
>>170990057
feinting into GB never works
feint into dash attack I didn't think about
feint into light sometimes works
Unfortunately my chains are predictable, so thanks for that advice.

>>
>>170990421
yeah. I had to reduce my graphics to low to get rid of it.
>>
>>170990205
Yeah, top heavy after parrying a long range heavy.
One of my favorite things if someone doesn't let me chain much is to end it by feinting a heavy then immediately do zone attack, top light and then improvise like right heavy, right light, top heavy or even feint into GB.

Zerker is all about making your opponent lose his shit.
>>
>>170990924
long range heavy as in the forward dash heavy lunge attack? That's pretty neat if that's right. I usually just deflect, hit, then feint into GB until he techs. Or alternatively feint into a light but usually end it there.
>>
>>170991109
No, like a Valkyrie heavy for example.
Stuff you can't GB after parrying, you can still punish with a top heavy since it makes you move forward.
>>
>>170991274
oh I see. I didn't know you got a free top heavy from a parry. fuck ya
