    New to Peacekeeper

    I'm new to Peacekeeper after getting a Rep 7 with a warlord, 2 with a Valk and 1 with a Warlord.

    Have to say, enjoying her so far, she's been the easiest character to pick up with a moderate amount of success despite a zero gear score. But of course the community calls her OP so that might be it. Quick question though, after a GB I only get one stab before getting bounced. Is there a trick to the timing to get the triple stab. Playing on a PS4 so is it 3 lights as quickly as I can press R1 or some sort of timing depending on when the first stab lands?

    don't mash the light attack button. try to time the press right after the stabs, i.e. gb->press once for first stab->wait until you actually stab->press the button again(once, do not mash it)->repeat/kick away/do nothing to release with minimal distance.

    Beeing new at PK means nothing.

    Pk users are all on the same skillz level. Because most of the time, is the class itself to give them the skillz they need to win.

    That's not even one little bit true.

    Just ignore this guy, he's had a rage hard-on for PK since Closed Beta.

    Funny, because I joined this month. And never tried the closed.

    Your chance to type a true statement, is failed.

    Oh, so you have even LESS experience than what I gave you credit for! Fantastic!

    I've been playing since Alpha, and am actually way more knowledgeable on the subject of this game than you are.

    This annoys me lol. Its like saying wardens are all on same skill level cuz they can Sholder bash the bad players non stop. Or saying valkyrie is no skill cuz she can kill you w.o you being able to gett off the floor. Or shigoki takes no skill cuz he can one shot you.or saying warlord takes no skill cuz all they do is spam headbutt and throw ppl off cliffs. Do I need to go on?

    (I main both warden and pk)

    Well there IS a skill difference, but when cheese and glitching are your main weapons, and you're always the aggressor, the difference between a skilled PK and an average one is barely measurable. Yes, you may be godly with your parries and the other guy may only be passable, but you'll never need to parry because you're just throwing out cheese until they die.

    The same can be said of wardens. Once you know how to reliably vortex the difference between average and good is just stamina management really.

    You're over simplifying and generalizing. Not everyone is cheesing and glitching, and anyone with experience knows that the Peacekeeper has a relatively limited kit to work with. She has only a handful of relatively short chains, no vortexes, no real combos, and no unblockables. The little bug with double indicators, while annoying, is meaningless as anyone with experience will tell you that zone attack ALWAYS comes from the right and is easily blocked if not parried outright.

    I know because I do it regularly. I destroy people who try to cheese PK with light spam and zone attack spam. It's easy to do so.

    That's very much platform and hero dependant. For a raider on console it is almost a physical impossibility to stop a practised pk spammer. For a faster guard stance changer on pc you can pretty much do it in your sleep.
