Raider Zone Unlocking needs to go | Forums

It’s flat out stupid to throw a light then unlock a zone and have it unparryable by the first target.

Yes. I fully agree. It’s one of the dumbest exploits of group fights. It’s not just raider either shaman and shugoki have the same capability. I don’t a good way to fix it other than reducing damage on unlocked targets ( to a degree, usual damage moves do full but high damage moves do less ) problem with that is that if your ganked it would hinder the one being ganked.

I hope this thread gets more attention. Nothing is more infuriating to me than getting blasted with an enhanced raider zone that I can’t do anything about because the dodge timing is off and you cant parry a move not for you.

Lol exactly this kind of exploits embarressed Ubi at the Season 3 Reveal Event with that 10000$ price from head to toes.

i tried that and it didnt work, zone got parried , whats the timing for it?

Throw light on first player then unlock lock the second player while throwing zone. The worst part is that it’s a lot of damage bc it’s his chain. Plus it stun locks up while your player hits you. It’s a lot damage if that happens.

will you see it as being unlocked as defender? or just fail the parry?

played 4v4 yesterday and failed to parry quite a few zones from a good raider and they did 74 damage.. 😀

U can’t parry it. U Might be able to dodge it.

The problem is that an unlocked attack has completely different dodge timing. Not only that but the attack will hit you at a different time anyway. So in raiders case if you dodge the axe at the beginning of the zone you’ll still technically be in the zones arc thus taking damage. A lot of damage. A lot of people do this in group fights because it’s absolutely destroys anyone close. A lot of damage that can’t be dodge or parried.

Stuff like this is why I don’t understand why people get so
Hard over dominion. Always seems like such a skillless spam fest compared to duels and brawls.
