    Parry attacks

    Normaly i dont do this but in the last few games i rage quit a few times i understand that some players are good at parry but for god sake i cant do a light this days whithout geting a parry this defensive meta is killing me and if u dont attack they just stay and watch you .
    Some times I think they got some kind of hack to parry 4 light attacks in a row .
    As for faints i play from PC on a 360 xbox controller and i cant rly use the faint.

    Nearly in all cases its like - "who attack first, get punished." Thats for Honor.

    About Parry.

    Im anoyed about the fact that some classes can block even a light attack after i parry there strike. Warlord or Valkyrie for example.if i play Nobushi or Orochi.

    kind Regards

    I think that parry should be used only for blocking unblockable

    I honestly believe block needs have stamina reduction, in real life you can't block or parry everything without getting tired and on a game that talks about realism, it needs to fix this issue.

    Internally, we have already started looking into ways to combat strong defensive play. We agree that defense is very strong currently and we are investigating ways to alter that, such as giving offensive play a boost of its own to break through.

    why don't you guys start an official thread for this asking the community to make suggestions, I'm on these forums a lot cause I love the game you guys have made and I want to see it made better and I have seen some well thought out insightful ideas that get no attention or discussion because of all the noise on these forums

    Hello ??? The game is already brokenLOL

    TO the OP : I agree, there a lot of amazing players who just parry every attemnpt of light attack and really i find myself powerless in these moments. But be aware, the chance they are just hacking is high, especially on pc.

    I get suspicious when you are able to parry 4 times in a row a LB top light/side.because I know there are some cheats that allow you to parry/block all.

    I don't mind getting beated by good players/extreme nerds players, as long as the fight is fun and epic, but when you just stay there doing nothjing except feint and parry, well, gg you are probably going to win this fight, but you just bored me to death.

    Im glad they are starting to look at it.

    I feel exactly the same i know there are players better that me but what are you to parry 4 lights in a row a solution to this (Parry/GB/Heavy)is to add maybe a conter GB but whit half the window of the normal GB
