Can someone explain defending guard break to me | Forums

[Gubbyplz1]

I understand the basics press x or square but when exactly is it? just before they grab you, during or just after? and can you always defend a guard break with one of your own?

when the bodies connect !
eh no, there is some case where u cannot, after a parry, after an animation, at the beginning (really soon) of a heavy, during a dodge.
And in some cases, (bugs) blocking a light of a berserker is a guaranted gb. aswell as blocking the aoe of a warden

You're supposed to press it as soon as they grab you and you see that guardbreak symbol. It feels like complete **** to me honestly as there have been countless times that I've spammed the **** out of guardbreak just for me to sit there and get thrown off a cliff.

I know a lot of fighting games spamming can cancel out defensive moves like that. don't know about this game though. but cheers thats what i needed to know still the more on guard break the better

i get the feeling this doesn´t work

thanks for that, I don't mind if it is a bug or not just wouldn't wanna spend 2 weeks learning how to do it, then to start all over again :/

You have a small opportunity AFTER they grab you. not as soon as you see the icon

people do it too early i presume. it seems you got to wait for what feels like a whole second before pushing it(it's probably shorter than that actually). (i try to push it when the broken red shield is about to be gone from the attacker and transfered onto me (just before it actually transfers onto me). or as other have mentioned, it corresponds to when the attacker physically connects with you or so.

if you push too early it ruins it all and nothing will happen no matter how much you push it.

The Guardbreak is really **** !!

If you play a peacekeeper and you try to do a gb on another character which is bigger as you it always fails! Other heroes "Peacebringer" can just spam the db all the time and use it on you without fail and many times and you cannot do anything ! (UbiSoft ! why they can do that ??)

The interested thing is, that the gb is very easy to use on a Bot ! But as far as you are playing against other players online... The GB is as a Peacemaker close to "impossible" to do, even if you train the timing the whole day with hard Bots !

This sucks really !

Counter is kinda broken right now. Hopefully they will fix it. Or it is working and I just have awful reaction time, not sure which haha.
