Centurion rework ideas | Forums

[RusticStromboli]

Lets face it centurion is a steaming pile of hot garbage. He is predictable, he has a low health pool and overall has nothing going for him anymore. The only good thing are his fast heavy chains and wall splats but that's it.
I think he needs a little more health, 130 at the least, please ubi
Also i have an idea, as he is a hybrid type with an assassin and vanguard he should have some sort of side dodge attacks, slow heavy ones or something, give him something else in his small arsenal of moves.
Another thing should be a deflect/superior dodge property style thing, it doesn't do damage, but if he pulls it off it does stamina drain and stun and can be followed up by a light if successful.

I feel as if these options for reworks put forward today would still make him balanced but also unpredictable, his description is mixup intensive, but its hard to mix up when everyone knows your moves.

Thanks for sharing your ideas and feedback with us regarding the Centurion.

I don't think buffing his health is a good idea. No one ever complained about that, and 130 health is not what you would expect form an assassin-vanguard hybrid.

This is fair enough, its just hard to work in gank situations with unblockables from every direction, and I've seen some people complain about health to be fair, but what did you think of the other ideas?

the dodge attacks could be ok, but he already has the kick on dodge which guarantees him a light, so I don't think he needs it that much. And for the deflect thing idk, it just doesn't look fitting with his style..

Cent is kind of a strange bird when it comes to balancing.
-He's super bland to fight in duels (oh wow! is he gonna heavy? or is he gonna feint the heavy to a guardbreak? Or will he really mix it up and toss in a light?!) His attacks are all super linear and his only real saving grace is his wildly OP wallsplat punish. Because of the punish he can't just get a strait up buff or he'll just be OP again.
-In group fights he can be super strong because of throwing in random pins or throwing out heavies while swapping between targets.

It's kind of annoying to fight as and against him because they're never too exciting to fight but if you stop paying attention for a second, half of your health is gone no matter what skill level youre playing at (rep 114 diamond 2 here). It seems like the best option would be a major overhaul of his whole kit because he's just not fun anymore. He got a badass new set of armors so now he just needs play as good as he looks

Let him be able to soft-feint his kick. BOOM. S-tier.
