Fat is better than Armour | Forums

i really think the lawbringer should have been the class you get the shugoki's uninterruptible stance.

the LB has the heaviest armour of any character in the game, if anyone should be able to take a hit with out flinching it should be him
plus if he had that or even say the warlords uninterruptible heavies, his kit might be usable, as it wouldn't matter so much that his attack are so slow. you could go for the trade.

I felt the same way, I was like,"A man with more metal than a mine, versus an almost nekkid fat guy, and the fat guy is more of a tank, go figure". I think the LB needs to have way, WAY higher passive defense or something for his massive armor. LB needs so much help.

Realistically speaking, the Lawbringer's armoured enough most of For Honor's weapons wouldn't even touch him. But he still is staggered by a flick of a Peacekeeper's dagger.

yeah makes no sense that the walking fortress with the longest weapon in the game, can't take hit and has terrible reach.

It's unfortunate. Don't think Ubi really gives a sht.

Lets join the hate Ubisoft in every way bandwagon.

Let's join in on the "never criticize our glorious Ubisoft overlords" bandwagon.

See, I can do that, too.

Although he can use some love from the developers, LB is viable.

Repeat. Lawbringer is very good if you play him right.

You're a counter attacker. Problem is, the majority of your abilities that are based on parries don't work. WHAT DO I DO??

Jk, just get better at parrying.

If you parry a heavy attack, yeah, all you can really do is go for a guard break or a light riposte.

If you parry a light attack though, you have TONS of options on how to bully your new victim. You can guard break them, use your side heavy to charge them into a wall for more overhead heavy goodness, or just go for the unblockable heavy. None of them are dodgeable or parryable in that state (except conquerer, for some reason).

So get gud at parrying those light attacks friends! Make sure you can tell the difference on every character so when you do parry, you know what your safe options are.

Here's a little side note: If you do the parry>Unblockable overhead strike, it does 15 more damage than if you used it at the end of a 3 hit combo. Generally speaking, I can take 1/3 of a person's health bar with that one attack. AND IT'S PERFECTLY SAFE. God forbid you let me do that in objective modes with my gear level 108 and maxed damage, I'll take 3/4 of your hp with that attack or nearly kill you in one hit if your gear specialization has no defense either. I nearly 1 shot an Orochi who decided to use dashing side attacks a lot.

He was salty.

I had tons of fun.

It is not safe. I have parried that attack repeatedly. Parry top-heavy into unblockable is not safe at all.

False. You're parrying heavy attacks. This is tested and true for parrying light attacks. Sorry for the confusion.
