Add me to the list of valks experiencing odd unresponsiveness. Sometimes you click attacks and they're either delayed or don't happen at all.

I've noticed this, and people walking through my trips lately. The animation goes straight through. I'm on xbox, so we still don't even have the update, but my warlord's heavies are definitely comparable to valk's light attacks coming out of a stance change. Add in the fact that even her heavies hit incredibly soft, and she's really annoying to play.

I've also noticed alot of times that people can dodge through a trip or the dodge block doesn't work at all. This character is alot of fun to play but still needs alot of work to function properly.

Went back to my valk hoping to get used to it before the patch and have seen most of the troubles you have, i thought it was just bad timing on my part but maybe not.
I also experienced somethig wierd last night fighting light attack spamming peacekeeper, she was ultra aggressive and once she was out of stamina i had vengeance up and as soon as i popped it my character slowed as if i was out of stamina.
This happened multiple times against he same peacekeeper in 3 games.
Never had this happen on on any other character and i have a few renown 2+

Valk still has a lot of top tier stuff to her... This thread isnt about balance though, but lack of character controlability

So, how are you going to get off her "top tier" stuff if you can't control her, then get wrecked by Conq's or WL'S whose own shield bash cancels out yours (umm...logic would dictate they cancel each other out but hey what do I know).

one thing that works quite well is to back-dodge into a shield-tackle when they use their charge and then hit them full force while they recover from missing...
sad thing is: they will knocked back so far, that you need to do a pouncing thrust (forward dodge attack) to even reach them and you can MAYBE get a second light in... so you do what? about 2/3 of a bar in damage after a knockdown ...

apart from that little "trick" i agree. she has a lot of tools, but they just dont work due to being easily avoided.
