From what I understand, it's not a 'bug', just that Valkyrie apparently has an obscenely slow stance change, so when you get hit even though you guarded, the full transition still hasn't happened.Originally Posted by Zsootii Go to original post
This also will help explain why attacks often seemingly come out the wrong way as well.
funnily enough, through past tests she was supposed to be one of the faster ones, but i just dont see or feel it.Originally Posted by LordMalpercio Go to original post
i would put her in the same category as shugoki, nobushi and lawbringer.
The problem for me is that the dodge blocks seem to need to be timed to 100%.Originally Posted by LordMalpercio Go to original post
I thought its me, however I saw a lot of feedback and videos where the block is up, yet the attack connects.
If that is the case just because she is slow, its sad because I like the mechanic.

Has anyone experienced valk completely not responding? In one game I had an opponent down and he was close so instead of overhead heavy, I was clicking my left mouse, but valk did not do a single attack for about 3 seconds. Maybe this is the P2P acting up, but its happened before also. Anyone else? Where you give a command and she doesnt even respond?
Yes I did that is exactly the kind of stuff I am talking about.Originally Posted by Scoregasms2286 Go to original post
I had it both for like 3 seconds just hammering and nothing happening, but also dodge attacks are a pain at times. Only way to put it is that she is less responsive than other characters.
After logging on and going thru a few different encounters, I realize this class has gone from a fiasco to a train wreck. Thank you Ubisoft for completely destroying one of the best classes you could of chosen to fix. Blocking is now worse than ever, I didnt think that was possible but hey....GG for proving me wrong. There's more, but honestly I'm tired of wasting time in hopes you'll get it figured out, it hasn't happened yet and it's clearly not going to. Wardens, Conq, Oroichi, and Warlord ....congrats for being the chosen children. G'luck to the rest of you Valk players who are determined to stick it out.
Valk still has a lot of top tier stuff to her... This thread isnt about balance though, but lack of character controlabilityOriginally Posted by Chaos_Model Go to original post
Only way how to fix it is to take valk to a lab and completely analyze all of her moves because she has so many bugs. Not just fix light attack but also other her moves. How couldnt they notice that her move side attack are easy punishable with block and fast grab (bug) ...

Yeah I had this in a game where I also couldn't do any dodge or overhead strike. Just wouldn't respond. It normally feels like lag but this felt like those movesets just ceased to work. I've also had it when hunter's strike doesn't initiate with the dodge but then about 1 second later comes the spear thrust. Very frustrating.
