Input locking/unresponsive (bug?) | Forums

[Jazz117Volkov]

Warden. Occasionally when I go for a top heavy (seems to be after a wall-splat, but since those are really the only top heavies I commit too, it may not be an issue exclusive to that scenario) the heavy won't initiate. Like, I'll see a few start-up frames, then she'll get locked in top guard until I change guard position. I've had it happen a few times. If this isn't a known thing, I'll try to get a recording of it, but it is rare, thus quite difficult to reproduce.

I was also getting guard locking/stuttering (refusing to change for no reason) the other night while versing Highlander, but it may have been lag (and not to do with the hero or circumstance).

You are not alone with this, as mentioned here:

I noticed that this happens to Raider as well.

It sometimes occurs when you combo zone. It also occurs after a GB throw (into wall or OOS punish).

Happens with LB too, especially after Long Arm, side heavy won't iniate no matter how much I spam

Huh, good to know it's not just me then.

Do you guys get the dud parries too? You know, your opponent's weapon bounces off the wall or something, so you end up catching air with your sword. Looks bizarre...haven't decided if it's a disadvantage, just jarring. "The wall took my parry!"

[Xinlyfenne]

Yes, those occur when you parry correctly but the enemy's attack is interrupted. I think you can continue to parry for a few frames if someone else does attack into it.

yup, can confirm. Not sure it was there before PTS2. Could have been a bug since in PTS2 it was a huge bug that could be even triggered from afar by trying to parry a whiffed attack (so not necessarily an interrupted one)
