    Shaman

    Why do shamans still have the fastest lights in the game with a second hit guranteed if 1st hits. Fastest dodge attack that is a heavy not a light. Fastest range attack in the game. A head but which guarantees double light, a heavy if into wall, or used as one of the best throws in game after a GB. An unblockable atack which wan be canceled with a dash attack or gb. Heavys can be fainted into guard break. Wtf cant they do. This is Centurion all over again except shaman makes the original Centurion look like a lol b****

    I agree, she really is a powerhouse with frankly, no really obvious downsides.

    And I'm dreading where the game will go during Season 5. I do not support reworking older heroes in order to bring them up to Shaman/Glad/Aramusha/Cent/Shinobi levels, I would much rather see these newer heroes brought down. Fewer, slower attacks, less unblockables etc.

    100% agree. play with and against the og classes is much more fun then the new classes with all their unblockables and cheesy moves and shaman is still op even after nerf.

    Whelp, I completely agree with everything in this thread so far. Depressing, really, because I do believe we won’t be winning this one.

    I think for honor is headed in a different direction due to management changes and an overall confusion about what the game actually is.

    I love the game, but I fear I won’t in a year or even 1/2 a year.

    A year. Let’s be real on how fast they’ll get these changes done.

    It took them 6 months to finally put the centurion where he should be

    Absolutely..... except he’s not. He’s still annoying and now he’s also junk against good players. The cutscene everyone hates us also a detriment to centurions. With the new characters, they can practically 100-0 him while he’s stuck in the cinematic. Awesome, right?

    But that’s beside the point. I agree with you. Now conquerors superior block was removed for his rework... when? Another case of “suffer with this character.... until we get around to it.”

    Shaman falls into that category as well. I’m bitter, obviously.

    one of the main things I hate about shaman is when she has a partner that causes bleed like peacekeeper or nobushi and shaman just stands back to jump and bite you while the other person keeps using bleed

    it helps to train vs the lvl3 bot for one hour.

    also some good guides posted on her weak spots already here.

    you can always parry the second light hit! practice it! it is difficult to learn but not hard when mastered. more a mental thing

    I think "Assassins should not have guard-disabling attacks" and "Assassin should not have a tackle".
    But, you want them to have special personality, the disadvantage should be large if they have that attack.
    There are advantages and disadvantages.
    As a result, we will understand.
    Does Sherman and other new assassins have a balance between merit and demerit now? Many people will say "No".

    (Sorry, I can't speak English, so I can't good at using it.)
