The Lawbringer buffs are kinda funny since they make him significantly stronger in 4v4 where he already was very good while not doing all that much for his 1v1.

Long Arm -> Heavy is the biggest change, and makes him a lot stronger in both. He finally has something worthwhile to show for the Shove -> Long Arm mixup instead of just a guaranteed light, and spamming Long Arm was already strong enough in 4v4 situations that it could easily be considered overpowered if you had some allies to whack the person while you were doing it.

Loopoo posted:His shove would be more dangerous if he had an unblockable to try and force a parry attempt out of you. As it is now, the second I get shove-spammed and lose all my exhaustion, I just play the blocking game til my stamina is back. It's pretty unfortunate for LB. He's very good in team situations though, as you can get blindsided by his choochoo train attack and throw off a ledge, or picked up and thrown back, whilst his teammates stomp your face into a pulp. I have to admit my earlier insistence that being out of stamina was a severe penalty was because as a Raider I could use the unblockable to force a response. It probably needs to be worse for it to matter against other classes.

So skirmish is apparently fun now. I dunno if they changed up the spawns or something but its pretty much 4v4 nonstop action in a small area with no honor bullshit. Straight up brawling for 10 minutes.

Played a rep 3 LB that didn't know about the confirmed light after parry last night. I was making GBS threads all over him with my no rep valk. Also ran into my first "sticks tied together" afker. The Shug on my team and I reported him. He was rep 6.

Unless you're playing against a nobushi or lawbringer mirror match, why wouldn't you go for the free gb, side heavy, shove combo?

The LB I was fighting did well and eventually won because of the Kensei partner. I was bullying the LB pretty hard the entire game though. I'm terrible with Valk but sometimes I do good things. V: that's good news. Bots don't get salty about being thrown into spikes or pits. Mambo No. 5 fucked around with this message at 16:46 on Apr 6, 2017 |

I always know to keep an eye out for the quick zone attacks, but when I'm fully focused on what the opponent is doing, I inexorably block top and then realise it's a zone but am too slow to block it again.

Was never really sure since I think she's a bullshit character in general and hate everything about her instead of specific indicator bugs. Apparently they're not touching her light > light spam either yet, so there's going to be more of that garbage. Good changes besides that though. Looking forward to Lawbringer finally being good.

btw nobushi is absolute dogshit, take it from a rep 7 main, if you're thinking about picking her up, don't waste your time. None of her kit makes any sense in this video game. There's literally no reason to play her.

Maybe the PC players that already have the patch can confirm, but I don't think they did enough to nerf revenge gear. They should have buffed the other stats too. Right now block damage, execute damage, and a bunch other stats do practically nothing. The revenge duration reduction is weird too. Seems like you could proc revenge constantly and keep getting the health bonus.

Maybe I'll pick up berzerker or valkyrie instead.

Wasn't Conqueror nerfed? Cause his shield bash is just as annoying as it's always been. Lawbringer is fun to fight against now because he can do more than poke and shove. Conqueror is still infuriating to fight cause 99% of Conq's just shield bash spam.

Pick another class that isn't gruelingly boring to fight against. Every Conq fight is mind numbing. At least now when you dodge, if it still connects, you get pushed back so he can't chain into you like before.

There's literally no reason to play her. Yeah, I gave her a try since I really like the general playstyle and aesthetic, but I had to give up after reaching rep 1, it was just too much suffering. Few confirms, bad dodge-attacks, poo poo for initiatiors, and Hidden Stance really just works out to a less reliable Parry. The Iron Rose posted:Oh hey, Ubisoft patched it so that all orders can be completed either vs the AI or vs regular players. Huh, I actually rather like the look of this. Somewhat on the slow side, but a step in a good direction.

I also got Nobushi up to Rep 1 and came to the same conclusion. I was having an okay time with her but went back to Warden for a couple matches and realized I was having a lot more fun with him. I just can't deal with the slow guardswitch characters. Her attacks are so slow too. I really underestimated the value of having fast attacks. All Nobushi has is the janky unlock zone attack tech. The good thing is that having to gently caress with so many feints and weird poo poo to open up someones defense made me a lot better at Warden. Maybe I'll give Valk another shot. She does have some of the coolest looking gear in the game. Trillhouse fucked around with this message at 19:22 on Apr 7, 2017 |

RENEGADE CUCKSKY posted:I've been loving around with him a bit but how do you do the dash attack thing with Orochi? i'm on PC btw Dodge backwards and hold attack (heavy, I think) while in a sideways guard. Once you release the button the attack goes off, or you can cancel out of it by dodging again. It's good as a counter-attack if you time it right, but it's also super telegraphed and obvious. So if you don't think you hit your opponent while he's still recovering, just cancel it, because it's extremely easily parried. Alternatively you can do a variant of this by using a high guard. It has less movement back and forth but comes out quite a bit faster, leaving your opponent less time to react.

Nobushi's pretty good, but there's a lot of bullshit to juggle. Happy Murder Granny needs open areas to operate, she's best if you stay at the very edge of her reach and if you get backed into a corner you're far more screwed than even most other characters.
