I've done top lights and have still hit the wall.Originally Posted by Goat_of_Vermund Go to original post
Another thing:
And since the indicator gives so many false readings I really do think bulwark needs to be buffed. Sure in 1v1 it's fine but when your indicator is telling you you have an incoming side hit from another ganking opponent and it doesn't when reach you it's frustrating cuz now you were baited by the indicator.
Then it must be a server thing. I am not great on my parries, but getting a bulwark doesn't seem too difficult, and the window appaers to be bigger than a parry window.
The one buff I really desire for him is lower gb vulnerability on his bulwark slash to 100ms. For that, they can nerf the shieldbashes as much as they want.
I wore more above goat. I don't mind the Gb volnerabilty but it would be nice if the shield flip had a timing buff that bleed into the gb volnerabilty just for multiple opponents.
I'd like his super far bash light attack to be a heavy. I don't know where that's not a thing.
And I'd like an actual decent zone. It doesn't have to be as good as conc's but something like Shugoki's or kensie's.
The zone is quite decent now. Low guardbreak vulnerability and it catches people who dodge at shieldbash timing.
I really find Bulwark a totally decent mechanic. It is quite situational, but it leads to 30 damage on potentially multiple opponents while giving you invulnerability, and you can even punish attacks with it targeted to other players. I really don't think it has any problems, it is probably the most well designed defensive tool in the game.
I don't know if you waste your time on FH youtube vidoeson the extent I do, but you should check out some videos from Faraam on him, as well as from other high reps if you did not already. There is insane potential in Bulwark counter (I just found out that it triggers if an enemy is thrown into you a few days ago. It also stops bleed damaging you, counters hitokiri senbonsakura and drop attacks, and completely shuts down some otherwise dangerous bash/light followups).
It's been my experience on console it doesn't catch lights well on console anyways. But I don't use it for anything but maybe a first light do to the gb volnerabilty punish. I know it can't be used for the followup lights.
I do watch YouTube and faraam. I prefer to see whole games like Gigantian (or however it's spelled) or toeknee. farnam is good and has fast reactions but he usually just shows his best moments not him running for his life hahaha....we all do it sometimes. Plus he abuses OOL to win. I'm not saying I don't but I'm not showcasing my skills online. And yes toeknee does it in dominion to but atleast he is amusing and shows most the fights.
It's funny ubi sponsored some YouTubers kaif , zanny, ect with this seasons new hero showcase yet they don't even upload as much as infinite , Raven, toeknee ect. It's like ubi isn't keeping track of who still actually followed for honor when the money isn't given to them.
I knew it wasn't going to be received well but we have cut scenes in this game. With a valk shield tackle close range design it would be just a part of his kit that no one would pay any mind. .Originally Posted by EvoX. Go to original post
And conc already has a zone better than an automatic bulwark with minimal weaknesses.
