PK is now worthless now | Forums

If anything it shows the poison was just the icing on the cake.
Low to mid skil ltear still gets destroyed by assasin spammage.

Peacekeeper can still be used quite well. I'd like to think I'm mid-tier skill to slightly above average as far as gaming skill goes.

With her triple shank bugged she's not in the most optimal place, but she's still dangerous with her other tools. Especially her use of slipping lunge to grapple people and throw them around. Her light attack can chain pretty well, though not nearly as well as the Berserker. Her deflection counter is nice, but deflection isn't the easiest thing to pull off either.

She's in a weird place right now where if you were great with her before, you can still use her well, but she's certainly not reaching her fullest potential like many of the other characters are (looking at you Nobushi, Orochi, and Berserker! )

I have been playing PK since closed Alpha, and the current state of the PK is bad.

The stab is worthless now.
Dodge/stab is also worthless against players who know how to block.
Deflect is very hard to pull off.
Everyone knows to keep guard up to protect from leap stab.

There is not much the PK can do now except maybe get some light attacks in short range.

PK is broken. PK is the only class I'm even interested in playing (assasins creed) and her current broken state makes me not even want to play the game.

Im a compettive player in Tekken, Kiler Instinct and other truly UNFAIR fighting games and can say that For Honor is a cut above all of them and yet all I prodominately have read here are complaining and not SOLVING. In this game EVERYONE can: Block, parry, counter and so forth. Use the tools you have and stop asking UBISOFT to bail y'all out with a miraculous patch/buff that'll alluva sudden make y'all superstars. For instance, if y'all KNOW a persons guard is being hold up to guard against your leaping slash then why dont some of you just dash and do NOTHING and then go for a grab instead...Its like ppl here have little to no concept of a true meta game in which you train your opponent to do what you want them to do and set traps for them. Then another one I seen is...Its easy for ppl to block the PK side step attacks...Just block in the direction shes going..Well, CLEARLY if your opponent is on guard for it; it will be blocked...Have any of you stopped to think that maybe that y'all should use that move AFTER dodging an attack first instead of just throwing it out willy nilly and hoping it'll land? smh...

All of this pointless talk about character buffs and nerfs and Im waiting for the REAL solution here...And that is when UBISOFT will give me and the many other ppl who purchased the GOLD EDITION of this game physically all of the items and perks that comes with it..Now that is what Im wainting for...All of this senseless complaining about characters in this game is crazy...They are all good in their own way...If YOU can't make that character effective then perhaps YOU are just not good enough...When will ppl stop blaming the character and start looking at themselves?

Yeah complain about worthless vanity stuff, this is really IMPORTANT. Balance fix don't worth it at all.
And thanks for advice from "know nothing about your class & game", really helpful. Appreciate this.

It's a long read so the tldr is that she is to good against new/bad players and to bad against skilled/knowledgeable players.

I play nearly only PK now.

I dont feel it been underpowered. Stab is useles until they fix it but there is lot more what you can do. Mut most importantly mastering dodge and deflect is way to when playing pk.
Only broblem i have is people ho are really good in blocking and are wery passive. Its near impossible to brake. pk dont have any skill what goes true block.

Not true. At all. She's absolutely ****ing lethal and by far one of the strongest characters in the game right now.

CLEARLY you missed my point and misconstrued my words...Im not surprised...I will say however, that gamers will NEVER truly be satified with character balancing. THere will ALWAYS be someone who has some issue with another character. Hence WHY I said these arguments are pointless. The PK is meant to be used in a specific manner...Clearly most of you are using her like she is a different character and as a result ya'll are getting mauled for it. She is a: point, rushdown, evasive character...coupled with this bleed effect she is meant to grind a fight out and make the other guy miss while she counters.
