Nerf the stupid assassins | Forums

[Sir Wiggy Wiggy]

I went from having the Gold edition preordered after the Alpha, to cancelling my preorder.

Nobushi and peacekeeper require absolutely no skill at all to play and are completely unbalanced. Both stun lock with quick attacks to the point where a Warlord won't even put up his shield in between. Both have bleeding/poison which is a TERRIBLE ADDITON TO THE GAME. ("Lets make this great combat system, and make it so 2 characters only have to hit you once and run away, then repeat")

Also no point in being a tank considering that low health heroes can heal to full as long as they've been spamming quick attacks half the game. Also assassins get their abilities a lot quicker than other classes.

Completely ruined this game with 2 classes. Either nerf them or remove them or my group of players won't be getting this game. We wanted a balanced, skill-based game, not whatever trash you're turning it into.

101% agree. My experience so far : 7 raiders in 3 days, 2 berserkers, ~10 wardens, BUT - ~60 Orochis , 50 nobushi , 50 peacekeepers.
What does peacekeeper have to do? Right. Press guardbreak (which is unreactable at yellow ping and lower) press R1 and run away. Super fast attacks, super low stamina cost. #SKILL
AH and the funny thing is that afer the match they can hatemail you saying something along the lines of "HAHA YOU NOOB CAuse you play raider , cause the game says raider is "EASY" , HAHAHA " , whereas i have to do 10 times a job than them to win with raider and/or warden including feints , cancels , etc. - ridiculous.

What surprises me is the stupidity of testers within ubisoft , who played them and said "WOW HAR HAR HAR THIS IS SO MUCH FUN HAR HAR HAR" and then game designers approved it. Just ridiculously stupid.

Exactly. "Not good at attacking and blocking? thats cool just guardbreak them, bleed/poison with 1 attack and run away for the rest of the match!"

I am just leaving every game i am matched with peacekeeper at this point. Can give a chance to orochi or nobushi if they dont hit and run. I just dont see how can it be fun to press r1 and run away.

u are going to test a game
u are newbie as everyone here is, because game is not released yet, and being "strong" in closed beta as the same value or monopoly money.

so, let's say: how long have u trained your skill to dodge/parry/counter? how long have u fought top players and how long have u been in top ranking on for honor to say that your skill is nice and it must be other to be op?

i myself HATE dot mechanic. it is stupid.

but i know that my reflexes are still bad and i have to learn timing and strategies before talking about classes balance.

So what? Am I not allowed to play Nobushi and Orochi anymore? Because you people apparently can't counter a guardbreak or block?

[buff_Nobushi]

Yet, I agree that the "blood damage" should be toned down a bit.
Or yes, remove it completely.
But give Peacekeeper and Nobushi more "raw damage" then. Nob does basically no damage without "bleed".
Not sure about peacekeeper tho.

first fanboy , as expected.


I dont need to play for a year to know that unreactable guardbreak into mashing of 1 button is a ******ed mechanic. And since its an online game - i wont always have ppl with green ping to play against. Yellow ping and lower = peacekeeper just gets a free win, along with orochi, who teleports with his dashes and his attack indicators appear 0.1 seconds before u are hit.

I wont tell u my story with cybersports cause this is internets, and i dont feel like proving anything to group of randoms who will say "HAR HAR HAR i dont believe you , you are a noob , ahr har" , but just trust me on my word - i played competitively ALOT of games, and i have a pvp dedicated channel on dark souls , which i will not advertise here as well. So i kinda know what im talking about when i say that its an unbalanced ****

[DrExtrem]

one thing is, that*you dont see where their guard is. when you see it, its too late. orochi*is relativly easy though ...

it yould be*nice to the the guard indicator, even if their guard is not active. knowing what stance they have, would make it easier to play against them.*

Apparently you cant read. We can guardbreak and we efinetely can block , thank you very much , but pls , record us a video of your amazing skills where you counter GB a red ping peacekeeper , pls , oh grand master of For Honor , we are waiting for the link.
