Ubi, please explain to me how vortex is balanced. | Forums

[Divenity]

I'd really like to know how this still exists and how anyone can possibly think it's ok... How is being caught in an infinite stunlock chain unless the player happens to GUESS correctly considered fun to you?

Please, please explain your logic behind leaving this abomination of a cancerous mechanic in the game, please, tell us why you consider it balanced, please, tell us how you expect people to counter it, please.


How is this fun to you? Have you never been on the receiving end of this or something? I can't see how anyone who has been could possibly consider it anything other than cancer.

Full charged bash can stunlock you

Game is impossible to balance, which is all across the board with any "fighting" game. That's why tier lists exist, these types of games are inherently unbalanced due to the very specific play style of each character. The variety of character move sets is what draws people to these sort of games, instead of generic assault rifle #1 vs generic assault rifle #2. My only advise is to practice against it, it's not completely OP otherwise it would've been nerfed like everything else.

What do you call bash/gb into double light? I call that a stun, what hapopens after it's done? play a guessing game! Guess wrong? You're back int he stun, repeat until death or lucky guess...

Please do enlighten me as to how I'm supposed to practice a 33/33/33 guessing game.

Yes it is, the devs are just incompetent as far as im concerned. It doesn't need to be cancelable into GB, it makes it too strong. If it's too weak after that, make it faster so the base effect is harder to dodge. It being cancelable into GB, which is the hard counter for it's base effect's only counter makes it overpowered.


Right now it is so strong that there is literally no reason to ever do anything else. That means it is overpowered, that means it needs to be nerfed.

Full charge shoulder bash tracking is garbage and takes solid seconds to charge up. If you get hit by it, it's your fault.

Game is impossible to balance

Yes, it is impossible to balance perfectly, but it IS sure as hell possible to get it closer to balanced than it is now... A LOT closer.

People already forgot about Warden, Lawbringer and Valkyrie. The Shinobi and Centurion madness may last until the next 2 victims be release in Season 3.

I guess you could call it a stun since it renders you defenseless to the next attack but it isn't exactly a stun like Raider's dash>light for instance. It doesn't matter what you call it tho, it's BS.

Don't try and dodge, hit him with your fastest attack instead. That will stop both the bash AND the GB if you land it right.
