Highlander vs Minions is the stupidest thing I have ever seen | Forums

How in the CRAP can I walk into a SEA of minions and swing my NINE FOOT GREATSWORD and only kill the ones that are TOUCHING ME


Its INFURIATING


I go to B and try to clear out minions because you would THINK that the Highlander would be a BEAST at that and I am ONLY killing the ones I hit with the first 3ft of my sword.


Beyond that my sword just phases through the enemies.


How was this not caught in testing? I mean its one of the most BASIC things a hero does.

I agree on that one. Love the beastlander but what was that? Standing in the middle of a bunch of minions and swinging your big sword and only kill about 3 minions lol

Yeah it's really funny. I found that second heavy swing from standing does kill many minions. But that is only one attack. All others kill at most two!

You think with their constant blunders they would have decent players playtest the new classes. Highlander is ****ing awful against anyone with a fast attack, the only useful move for clearing minions is the zone which for some reason always targets that 1 guy by himself off to the side, and Highlanders combos whiff randomly for no reason.

What the **** Ubisoft? How do you **** everything up constantly? I play lots of fighting games and this is the only one that actually makes me mad. I want to physically assault whoever makes these decisions.

It might be stupid that you can't mow down the minions with that giant claymore.. but I feel sorry for those minions when you use the lights on them. That poor poor minion that you just man handle and toss aside like he's a sack of potatoes.. he was just 2 days away from retirement.

I find the zone attack to be pretty effective at clearing the minions, but yeah his sprinting attacks and is standing heavies are kind of broken.

The Highlander is in a good place right now in both Duel and Dominion. He's not "bad", and he's not "Godly".

Thus, I wouldn't even be mad if Ubisoft Buffed him to clear a full minion wave in the 3 swing of his zone attack or at least made his regular hit kill more than 1 minion at a time. It would actually be an awesome sigh to behold.

I dont play Highlander and fully endorse buffing his minion clearing ability.

Yes, his sprint attack clearing minions ability is a big joke but now we have laughed enough and want to have the real thing.

His sprint attack and zone as well need fixes
