fix the damn assassins before i lose my mind | Forums

It so sad, that everyone, when talk about OP assassins don't include Berserker... everywhere Orochi and Peacekeeper

But on topic, as Berserker main, i think Orochi and Peacekeeper (after stab fix that will hit soon) are in good spot right now, no need for changes really. They have thier weaknesses that can be used to win over them.

Like it or not Orochi is the most played assassin because it's the easiest to play. No combos to memorize, just a few mediocre moves that are completely predictable.

Agree on that!

All assassins have ridiculously far dodge range and invincibility frames.
The fact that the game is peer to peer you have assassins teleporting everywhere add that assassin speed and you have an overpowered class.

Those inviincibilty frames piss me to no end. It's so freaking cheap. As a Warlord I expect to have hard times agains a Peacekeeper, but when I do an area attack, and I actually see my sword go through the guy just couse "daaa, dodge invincibility" I just wonder what's the point. The game break its own rules just to make an assasins live easier.

Assassins feels so bloody cheap, they just spam. They make the game so much less enjoyable for me.

Easy kill Oro guide.

Guard left on approach. 90% of the time storm rush hits on the left. Be prepared to parry. If you parry, begin your attack chain and watch Oro melt away (Keep in mind Oro has zero actual combo chains.)

If you fail parry, or storm rush hits right- guard top, prepare to guard break. Oro has exactly 2 pure offensive moves that do any real damage. Either 2 top light attacks, or 1 top heavy attack usually after a guard break. EVERYTHING else they have requires you to attack first! Let them be aggressive.

If you fail to counter all these moves, never fear, the Oro is now totally out of steam and must dodge out. And you get your shot at redemption as the process repeats itself.

Oro can be fun, but is far too predictable. Just wait until everyone levels up their Oro and the Berserkers start hitting the field in force. The tears will flow like rivers. They can not only dodge, but feint and dodge at the same time. They have actual combo chains, that are infinite! And after the first 4 hits, they will never ever run out of stamina and stop hitting you.

Like it or not Orochi is the most played assassin because it's the easiest to play. No combos to memorize, just a few mediocre moves that are completely predictable.

And get killed horribly cause anyone will notice that you guardbreak and will simply spam light until you die and his lights hurt alot especially from top, you just wont win that race by switching tactics as you can at best put a light after guardbreak or youll get dodge attack with invicibility frames so you cant even predict which side will he be and bait him into it.

But **** it, look at matches im yet to see a 4v4 without orochi or berserker or pk and warden. If its so easy to counter why is it everywhere while genuinely easy to counter lawbringer is barely played and if its played it got average scores at best.

Get over yourself grandpa. If your Alzheimer and rheumatism is making you unable to play, it's hardly the young generation that should be catering your decaying neurons.

With that out of the way - the attack speed could be lessened for a damage increase, sure, why not. Guard breaks could do with a cool down, sure, why not. But most of the issues you're all having that complain about guard breaks connecting and unable to counter it isn't due to the class being "OP" - but due to the hardware and network structure (ie P2P being ****) is what's causing you to be unreliable in counter-guard breaking.

But we all know that because I don't agree, I must be an Orochi player, and therefore all comments are invalid so long as they contradict yours, right?

HA! you called me a Grandpa your so funny i just couldn't laugh at all. but whatever your right i wont listen to stupid people just cuz there friends ASKED them to make a comment back about a broken class which you lot seem to LOVE.
