(bug)Valk can cancel two lights into a sweep | Forums

[LegalizeTheBud]

So currently the valk can cancel after two l1's(light attacks) out of any opener straight into a leg sweep. This clearly wasn't how the leg sweep was supposed to work and has broken the class entierly. Sweep is only supposed to be activated after a sheild bash or gaurd break head butt. Dodge back or parry you say? Right, with those new frames and her ability to deflect too, it's just an insanely stupid strong character right now and not easy to deal with. Her damage has become insane especialy with full gear and after 3 hits it's not unlikely you will die especially after that r2 after her sweep. Let's hope this is adressed soon

It is not a bug its an option .You can either follow with the last hit or hit back+ Heavy attack to switch to a leg sweep.Nothing new it was there before the buff.

edit: you can only perform the sweep if the two light attack have connected.

Where in the valks move set or videos do you see this "option"? According to it the sweep is only activated on gaurd break head butts or sheild bashes. This is not an option born from how it was intended to be used. It's an option created from a bug that shouldnt be there to begin with.

well if you go to Valkyrie moveset and check the Hero specific moves. You would have seen spear sweep finisher, which means you can use the sweep as long as its the third link in a chain.

An other interesting feature of the hero specific movelist is that the shield tackle cancel is also supposed to allow the valkyrie to cancel shield tackle with a guardbreak. which doesnt work btw. So if any bug is present its the fact that valkyrie is missing options. not that she can do 2 lights then sweep. because that is intended, just not something many people are used to seing as valkyire was not around much at launch due to a horrible performance. Thanks to readjustments the class is now more functional, but stills uffering from certain issues.

Wrong...

You can easily whiff 2 lights into a sweep without any of them connecting

true but i didnt want to give this advice away.

meanwhile answer LEGALIZEtheBUD : You can use the Spear Sweep as the third attack in any of the Valkyrie’s chain combos such as Boar Hunter, Thrust and Slash, and Harrier’s Fury. Simply input the Down and Heavy Attack command instead of the normal third attack in any of those chain combos and the Valkyrie will transition directly into the Spear Sweep. You can also use it after the Shield Crush for even more utility.

Thank you for the nice replys. I main Nobushi and am having a lot of trouble vs higher valk play because of how fast her attacks connect compaired to mine. The reaction speed seems really horrible and the dodge attacks are very good now and hard to deal with. It's pretty much become a up dodge light attack spam fest and when that dosen't work her mix ups hit and the reaction time just dosen't cut it.
