    Still Curious about attack speeds

    I am not bashing any class. The PK thread below was a good read. My question stems from attacks speed vs guard change speed. It appears sometimes that i have my guard in the direction of the attack and still get hit by blockable attacks. Currently it seems that I see the attack coming block in that direction and still take the damage. I understand this with assassin classes as the block must be timed well. With shield classes how am i not blocking those attacks? Which led me to the question are those attacks "too fast" to be blocked or perhaps it is as simple as lag.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the read. What I got from it is because of the game design, the indicators are lying to you.Is that about it?
