[Bug?]Warden can cancel unblockable shoulder bash into anything = ridiculous spamming | Forums

It's not listed anywhere that Warden is able to cancel his "MEZAROO" into anything. Other classes with similar moves can't cancel it into guard break or any normal attack they want.

Warden can, and it opens path for savage spamming, there MEZAROO is canceled into guard break, light side combo (where the second hit connects automatically) or top light attack which is also very fast.

So what happens is: when one sees MEZAROO starting, the best chance to avoid is side dodge, which isn't easy on its own for heavier classes or a in limited space. But then MEZAROO instantly changes into guard break which catches dodging characters easily, from where follows an attack and another MEZAROO from which you don't know know what to expect, because now you're also waiting for GB, but in an instant it is canceled into super fast top light attack. And this spam guessing game goes on and on at frustrating speeds there you don't even understand what's going on.

As long as it's not specified that Warden should be able to do it, i'm assuming it's a bug (e.g. even high-level bots don't cancel MEZAROO into other moves). Please address this in the next update.

Not a bug, that's just what the warden does. As you said, you can dodge his shoulder charge, but you can also interrupt it by hitting him (hard to do if you only have a slow hitting class,). He can only initiate the charge after a dodge or a light hit. So anticipate his charge and either grab him, hit him, or dodge in time. If you play a class with rather long range, use this to keep your distance, which makes it much harder for the warden to successfully charge you.
