    Can we get a real Shaman nerf

    Those tweaks did nothing but delay the inevitable. She is a low risk high reward easy mode scrub character that takes no skill to play. It's like all this work I did memorizing every counter to every move was all for nothing when she steps in. These devs pussyfoot around this game too much. I hope one day this game dies so the devs can see that all this lazing around on their asses killed this game. Whats the point of making cosmetics if there's no balance. And don't bother commenting because I'm pretty sure I could **** anybody in here up in a 1v1 so don't bother riding my ****. The only people I want to hear from is mods and devs because It's really getting depressing how this is the only game I play and there is no balance

    The complete set of changes have not taken effect yet, they will be live after the next title update. As of now the only thing changed is damage values. Look at candleinthedark’s summary of the warriors den for the full list of up coming changes to the shaman

    Sound like you are having some trouble? It seems you aren't really concerned with improving your gameplay, I know other players have put together threads discussing move set recognition. If you ever change your mind and wish to contribute to the health of the game I suggest you stop by any of these threads as they can be very helpful for new players looking to improve against the new heroes.

    You hope the game will die? Well... just stop playing it. We hope it will not die

    Doubt they'll reply seeing as you're not exactly helpful nor providing accurate information as to what the exact problem is, nor are you being courteous and collected in your message. But, they just might reply anyway; good luck.

    Doubt it too. See, roughly 2/3 of the playerbase plays Shaman these days, and from what you wrote it seems any Shaman player can easily steamroll you.

    I suggest, if you're patient enough and have some time to read through stuff, to check this thread: https://forums.ubi.com/showthread.ph...and-post-nerf)

    It has good information on Shaman's moveset, kit, and mixups, and how to counter most of what she does.

    The game won't die anytime soon. Best advice I can give is to practice.

    Man I'm just venting. I can fight Shamans it just takes more work on my end than there's. I just want my favorite game to have an actual competitive aspect. No need to reply, I'm irrelevant to the devs so it doesnt matter what I say anyways

    Worst character build since centurion, bleed character is a terrible idea, just like the cut scene killing centurion.

    Shaman pounce gives you zero reaction time, that in itself is broken. Add any bleed (for example a range weapon that gives bleed for a feat) and she can instantly take half of your health, and if she sneaks up on you she's gets a 15 foot leaping heavy thats takes 40 some damage.

    No other character can dish out her damage so fast from jumping someone, and players know it, people are always hiding around corners and in soldiers waiting to jump someone. Another bu**sh** character gets added to the roster. Hopefully it doesn't take 3+ months for her to get a real nerf...

    Wrong, opinions and discussions are crucial, they all matter as much as facts; but only when they're healthy discussions, creating healthy threads for everybody.

    I love For Honor too. And I wish to adapt to whatever new hero the devs throw in there. She's not broken (except confirmed wrong damage values on several moves and broken tracking on her bite). She's amazing and she's different, and she counters almost every other hero. It is up to us to learn her, adapt, rethink strategies, what works, what doesn't, what's guaranteed, what isn't. And this can differ with which hero you are using.

    Speaking of which.... which hero are you using?

    That's an exaggeration, honestly. For once, her bleed is near-nothing unless you're at your last sliver of health. Nobushi and Gladiator still deal greater bleed. I'm sure Peacekeeper too. Secondly, her Predator's Mercy is very reactable, even moreso when you know how to telegraph it, and when you know her moveset and the purpose of her mixups, and her bleed attacks. Plus it's interruptible with lights, and if you keep close to her, she likely won't be able to initiate the pounce at all, even.
