Raider drains stamina too quickly! | Forums

Raider drains the stamina of the opponents too quickly. This promote players to play unlocked and try to spam gb to drain stamina in characters with low stamina.

When I play pk vs raider I now happen to loose agaist very poor players that only drain stamina. The fact that pk now uses a lot of stamina for low damage makes it very difficult to win and makes the game very unbalanced.

When you are out of stamina the raider can get close you and stun, gb, hit or unbloccable, these is 4 things to look for while you are recovering...

I tried using raider myself and it is much much easier to win with him with my very poor skills with him..

He needs a fix. I also think that stace change time should not be the same for every character, heavy long weapons should take longer. You granted him same stace change time, why also stamina drain...

He runs, I get tired...be serious!!

We've brought up Raider's stamina drain to the team before and I'll bring it up again. We're doing an overall pass at balancing so this may be something the team are looking to address.

The Raider can hit you (stunning tap and zone attack are both "hit") or GB you...just like every other character. You're just mad because you have to work against Raider now instead of light spamming him to death. We're all sick and tired of assassin mains crying every time the playing field is leveled even the slightest bit.

Do you want to take away the Kensai buff too?

Thanks ubinoty for your reply.

Hairless_ape, balance is a subjective thing but I can on,y say that a very low skill raider can now take out a pk only by spamming the gb and running unlocked to finish her stamina.

No, I don't want to nerf the kensei although he is one of the most powerful agaist assassins. It still require skills though to beat a high level assassin!

I hate saying this, because those "get goo" people are childish jerks, but it sounds like you seriously need some practice. If a Raider is spamming guardbreak and destroying you it's because you're a button mashing light spammer, or you don't counter guardbreak. The Raider's GB is slow, unlike assassins, so you're beating yourself.

you can say whatever you want, but raider drains stamina faster than even centurion... and he s suppose to be the master at this

I might need some practice, but when I beat somebody with their main with a pk they usually take a raider or a zerker...they are way less skilled than with their main but still have a better chance to beat me. Then if I take that character in a mirror match I smash them 3-0. This has happened many times and it is usually the way I detect balance issues between character,,.

Don't worry though..I will keep practicing..
