1. guard break interrupt DOES NOT WORK. AT ALL. GAME BREAKING. literally the only time you can get this action to work, is if the enemy forgets to follow it up with an attack or throw.

2. seems like the law bringer could use a small boost in attack speed. you have to play these guys defensively the entire time, and it seems even if you block/parry you still don't have enough time get even a light attack in before you're barraged with attacks again.

3. kenshei's attack speed is way too high. why does he have the attack speed of an assassin with a longer sword? doesn't make sense to me, but apparently it does to the devs. might as well not even have the orochi, and just make kenshei the assassin.

4. peace keeper/berserker both need a huge nerf in attack speed because they use practically ZERO stamina. so they can legitimately spam light attacks from every direction for the entire duration of any fight, and there isn't a single thing you can do about it except kiss your butt goodbye. nerf attack speed, or increase stamina use. one or the other, but one has to be done.

5. conquerors - literally everything about this guy is OP. everything. and maybe shugoki should be put in to this category as well. haven't seen too much of them to know for sure, but seems like it so far.

6. nobushi is another that should have a slight nerf in attack speed. not a huge one, but make it noticeable. their weapon is just too long to allow that attack speed. it's waaay too difficult to try and get inside enough for an attack.

7. this is my last one, for now. it seems almost everyone i know is having this issue as well. i myself bought the gold edition, while most of my friends got the deluxe edition, and it doesn't look like were getting some of those perks. i downloaded my game instead of purchasing a hard copy, and it really doesn't make sense that i'm having this issue since i didn't have input any codes to get that stuff. it should just be there, but not all of it is.

the end, for now.

edit: perhaps players getting double/triple teamed could get a defense boost? the game is called 'for honor', but almost no one playing it has any. being outnumbered in a fight almost always guarantees a death.

i will run down the points with you:

1. guard break interrupt works perfectly well. Sorry to say this to you, but maybe u are just bad at it (no offense)... i know it takes some practice, but if u are used to it u can easyly block 90% of guard breaks if not more. just go into duell practice with bots and get better

2.well lawbringer really is slow as ****, but he has good range and good parry and counter potential. i dont like playing him aswell, but there are people really stomping with him and i think its a good thing that there is a diversity in playstyles for everyone.

3.kenseis attack speed in not high at all. I have played him for 25 levels in beta and 30 levels on realease and i can tell you, he is much slower then orochi etc... there is always no way for a kensei to won against a good orochi player, because of his speed and counterpotential.

4.PK and Berserker are fine as they are. Here again sorry to say this to you, you are just not good enough then. especially the PK is stopped in his combo, by a simple block, not even parry. if you learn lo parry, these buttonmashers u are talking about, bet less of a thread. and by the way, but have short range and can be kited well.

5.Well he can be a pain in the ***, but since he has short range, slow attackspeed you can keep him at bay. just use guardbreak and there is not much he can do, but counter guard break. just a question of practice, but hes definitly not op.

6.Her attackspeed is fine i think... she has to have SOME attackspeed so she can be able to keep her distance. once u get in her close range she is pretty much screwed... thats why she has the tools to zone you if played right.

7. no idea here actually

Guard break is an issue and everyone is aware of it. It has an impossible small window that is now completely off because you have to hit it in this perfect sweet spot just after they have connected their guard break. Its not intuitive at all. With latency and fps and everything taken into account, you have something insane like less than a millisecond to respond. That's absurd.

Guard breaking is the #1 thing that will kill this game because it requires ZERO skill. There is no feinting needed. No dodging, no tricky tactics. Just walk up to someone and guard break. Send them off ledges without even breaking a sweat.

But I mean, hey, everyone who is abusing guard break spam is skilled right? As long as they are the ones winning, everyone else is just crying.

Honestly man, get your head checked. People are complaining about guard break for a valid ****ing reason. The window for responding to guard break needs to be a lot more open. Guard break shouldn't be able to be spammed like it currently is. There is also ZERO punishment for when someone who does guard break actually gets countered. Nothing happens to them. If anything, they get pushed back away out of range of your attacks. The rare time you will actually catch them near a ledge and get to push them off but that is rare because usually its you they are in position to knock off the ledge.

Dont know why u have to be offended.
I just said i think its pretty easy to do and also if you watch people on higher level playing, i almost never see someone losing because they cant defend against guard breaks.
I think its a good thing the window is small, otherewise onquerors would be plain broken. i only talk from my point of view ( and i only played the game for something like 15 hours), but i think guard break defense is pretty good to pull of.

Yeah i agree with you there should be some sort of punishment ( for example you drain them stamina or something), but nothing to big, since it would result in people just turleling all day, wich is a big trend even now.

i didn't put this up here for nobodies like you to leave their 2 cents. these are my SUGGESTIONS to the DEVS. not you. and i couldn't careless about your opinions on the matter.

Then why do u bother answering?^^
btw i dont think the devs care about a noob and a nobody

[BATMANVyE]

because i needed to make sure you knew how little i think of you and your comment, instead of you thinking i read it and accepted it as truth.

[WardenOfPointA]

The fact that u reply again leads me to the conclusion that i must have hurt your little feelings with my post, otherwise you wouldnt mind or just iignore me

[BATMANVyE]

the fact that you assume to know anything about me or how my brain works amuses the s*** out of me. you probably thought you were going to come be a troll on my post and that was that. another fun day combing your neckbeard. sorry sister. guess i like to have fun too.
