So far I've seen a lot of shaman gameplay and one thing i personally don't like (I believe a lot of ppl don't like it) is her bite ability because is an unblockable ability and does almost 3 bars damage i believe is too much for an ability that you can't avoid or if you can it will be very difficult. One way this can be fixed imo is when she uses this ability to have an hp penalty if she misses like shugoki or decrease the damage this ability does. now i won't speak about the rest of her abilities because I can't judge until i play and the only reason I'm saying about the bite is because i can clearly see is op.

It rly does seem OP . Fast unblockable,unparriable that does **** ton of dmg, heals you and can be canceled.I ve seen dude dodge it and you will prob get a free GB out of it but the ration of risk/reward seems unbalanced . Shugokis demon embrace take a lot of hp if you miss it and its a lot slower.

Demon's embrace is also a one hit kill in certain circumstances. As I said in another post, not saying it doesn't have the potential to be op and if it is, even as someone playing her I would call that out as I have with my main, but until we see how it plays in the hands of the main not top 1% tier population, it is too early to saying anything one way or the other.

Here is the main thing, you need to be bleeding, if you are bleeding and a shaman dodges forward or back that's an indication you need to dodge, if they are trying to close for a gb, well you don't want them close for heal on attack in any case, it might be that if you know it is coming, someone trying to spam it is going to take a punish.

From what i ve seen shes got so many ways to cancel attks into bleeds that even one parry might cost you your life .Also not sure how fast is it but since its cancelable and as you said it might be possible we have to dodge early she might even get a 50/50 with it. Aramusha on the other side seems pretty underwhelming. Mostly the full block stance follow up . With him its the other way around . Since you cant CGB and need to time it down the reward you get for it is so stupid it will never be used against someone who can feint and actualy block and CGB after blurry effect . Kick is only usefull with wall right behand your enemy. The light does so little dmg its not worth the risk . Top heavy is ******** and side unblockable pretty much as well .Not to say he doesnt even have heavy after GB . Dont want to call devs names before it all goes live but it seems like they fked it up again with one strong and other underwhelming character

She's op. Anyone that doesn't believe that can fk off. Quit trying to protect an op character for your own enjoyment.

Ubisoft should stick to single player games. They are bad at making multiplayer fighting games.

It's weird to me how the developers are so willing to make bold and likely OP moves for a character right off the bat based off the testing of only the dev team, but then take ages to "fix" it when there's a much larger pool of testers (the players) for months and it's quite clear it's OP.

This is what iam afraid of . I dont care if they realese the characters in not so balanced state , one way or another. The thing that bugs me is that it will take months to actualy change it ...

Thanks everyone for sharing your feedback on the Shaman. She definitely seemed to be strong in the little we saw of her during the event today, but we'll be eager to see your feedback once she's in the live environment. The team is trying to create interesting characters that will be exciting to play, so naturally they do get a lot of hype before release.

Interesting? You're joking right?

Well I got a good one for yah.

Make a character that can literally go invisible with a automatic crossbow that can shoot indefinite bolts that causes bleeding. This sounds very interesting.

The thing is we arent satating these things based on the event today but more on the videos other youtubers/streames have put out . They actualy know how to play the game and since its a duel we see their strenghts and weaknesses a lot better than in chaos called dominion.Also these characters are rly insteresting but it doesnt mean you have to give one character every tool avaliable in the whole game plus something more . I hope the team actualy listened to players that have been given early acces and are already working on something rather than waiting month for data
