So, truth be told, actualy I do not know who is responsible for this and why it was made in the first place, and not fixed yet. (All I can think of is fan service, regarding so many thread asking for buffs for the hero... it is just, rofl, wonder of the people asking for Lawbringer buffs are just a kind of dumb)
There are heroes that are like immune to "staggering"... like Lawbringer (Raider, Shugoki), if I hit a Lawbringer with my Peacekeeper, nothing hapens, if they hit me, I stagger for at least 2 seconds and am virtualy in something thats called stun lock. No problem with that, considering their stature and armor, comparing to a peacekeeper (or another assassin heroe). But then again, how comes, this "brutes" are just as fast? They run as fast as assassins, they lose like no stamina when striking, are very nimble at evading, they strike as fast, if not faster... what is that? I mean, over-head swing (upper strike) is faster then a right side stab, even when the stance is already on the right? Is that some sort of a joke?

Only some heros have traits like that and lawbringer is not one of them. The trait is listed on the character move list. As far as I know only Shugoki and Warlord have those traits. The only stun lawbringers have is if you get hit by top heavy, which hides the direction of our guard wheel for 2 seconds. Where as everyone else can't see the guard wheel of assassins.
As for your "lose no stamina" point. My advice would for play lawbringer or shugoki. See how many actions you can preform before you run out of stamina.
Peace keeper is arguably the strongest class in the game.

With the current blocking system you cannot balance fast attacks and slow attacks in terms of blocking, which means balancing slow and fast characters is impossible.
They must fix the blocking system, and it's not a huge fix - more like a tweak.

I realy don´t know what you are talking about. If you play against a good equiped and skilled peacekeeper with the raider, they are so quick that none of your attacks realy hits them and they deal damage as hell. They spamm light attacks and can change the directions so fast that none of your block seems to protect you from any damage. I fought against a goldenequiped peacekeeper and it seemed that every action from her only took 1/10 time of the fastest raider aktion. Same thing is about wellequiped fast Samurai-Hero´s - had fights where those guy´s cut through my block with normal attacks like butter. The damage I took was so high that blocking seemed to be waste of time.
At the moment I am glad that I have more hero´s than the raider, cause he seems so weak and without possibilities against such wellequiped poisining speedkings that I only play him if the mission tell´s me that I have to go with this type of hero. Sadly I like the raider, but against well equiped fast hero´s nearly no action of the raider helpes me out. Surely I know that there are more skilled players then me and it´s ok to loose against them, but the raider seems to be realy weak. So it sounds very strange to me, if a peacekeeper is talking about bad balance of his class and then "names" the weak "raider" as an example.

Then duel one with gear disabled... the shugoki/lawbringer/raider run away and you chase with peacekeeper/berserker/orochi.... let the fatty get away a little bit so you cant jump on him... you will never catch him and run in circles forever.Originally Posted by Cronstintein Go to original post
The swinging... maybe I just can't wrap my mind around it, I am a swordfighter RL and if such a fatty would try to overhead swing a halberd at me, I would just stab him with the dagger (chin from downbelow under the helmet, or armpits, or any other vulnerable spot), or I would evade... surely not try to block.
