I've never encountered any other player in the whole game except for Coyote that immediately accused me of cheating to rep 30, left our game to harass me, and then report me on first glance of my character in the loading screen without any knowledge of who I am.
I should also add his report was a waste of time and ubi did their research into my account to find 100% legitimacy.
So a "normal player" is not a description I'd use, wheras a bad whiney one is much more appropriate from my experience.
Onto the actual post; I've landed countless catapults to save and/or end games and it depends on the person using it. I'll say 95% of the time I rack an easy kill or 3 when using it as it's impossible to get out of it when centered on you while being poked or CC'd. I'd challenge anyone to escape from my catapult, it's free kills.
The shield lasts way too long and should only apply to those within a certain distance of the Cent, but rarely has it been the deciding factor in a win or loss as it only feels like 3-4 more hits.
I don't think it gives a full healthbar. It covers the full healthbar but the segments are a lot bigger than the actual Centurions lifebar meaning it is way less health. Generally, even as a Shinobi get the shield down with two heavies. That's definitely not a full healthbar.
I DO agree that it should be a range thing though. Anyone fighting nearby should get it. But really, across the entire map IS a bit OP. It should cover a good area, somewhere between a whole hardpoint and stopping short before a second. Like if we take High Fort, if you fight at the dangling Fort it should go to the stairs that lead up to the Front. But not much beyond that.
The Phalanx gives 100 Shield to every alive teammate. yes strong indeed but i dont know if op. it depends on the cooldowntime.
As for the Catapult well thats the advantage every Knight Faction Character has. Its by far the best lvl 4 Aoe Skill.
Its way faster than Arrowstorm for the samurai and has a better targeting area.
Its also way better than the Vickings Fire Flask since you can dodge out of it even after the initial impact and at least survive.
The Catapult is in most cases a 1 hit kill button.
It says Punches, Kicks, and Throws deal damage. Unless from striking someone with your weapon into a wall does extra damage, THROWING someone into a wall will do extra damage as intended.Originally Posted by vgrimr_J Go to original post
And the shield is very slightly OP at least a strong feat. I wouldnt care if they nerfed or left it alone. I dont think its game breaking, just a little silly that you can get free shields from across the entire map. Personally I think a very large radius, something like the size of a capture zone in Dominon or even larger would be more fair. At least then there's some thought process to the feat and not "oh no were breaking, here's full shields"
I think we need some clarification on how much the Shield actually gives you in comparison to health. While it likely does not double your HP, I think its still a very generous amount. Id say at least 50health possibly more. That would add up to at least 1/3 extra HP or more for all heroes
If you are gonna complain about the shield feat you should also complain about the sharpen blade feat which is the most powerful feat in the game and love how players emote spam you when they kill you with it, absolutely weaker then when they emote spam you in a 4v1 fight. Also every hero is OP if you are a bad player and they will cry every time about it till they get what they want and even then they will still cry i.e. the Warlord they still cry about him, all those who cry about nerf or buff just want those heroes to be at a disadvantage cause it is not their hero. I just hope the Devs don't do anything drastic to the Centurion cause for me he doesn't feel OP compared to the other strong heroes, good players still kill me it's not like i just wreak everyone and my KDA is lower then my Warlords although am at Rep 4 and my Warlord is a Rep 8 so will have to wait and see if it is after i get to same Rep and i moved on to Shug after the patch that changed the Warlord although the reason was i was bored with the Warlord and not the patch believe me or not. Rep 46 and not one hero a double digit Rep. If anything needs a nerf it is that BS Nobushi ZA cause that is almost all they do get RM and ZA spam they worst thing ever.

He doesnt stop to think or listen about what anyone else says. His opinions are 100% correct 100% of the time.
Its called being a pissant.
