I remember the day they brought the nerf hammer down on my WL, nerfed all his DMG, his speed, killed his parry punish, killed his fullblock. Left him a shell of his former self.
I quit that day, I wasn't playing much anyway and the murder of my main seemed like a good excuse to move on.
They ended up reversing a few of their nerfs, slightly. But all the functional issues remain.
I don't remember the exact date of when it all happened but I think it's been well over a year, I have no clue why it takes so long to change things but at this point I've long since given up. My warlord is 70, I don't play anymore, and sometimes hang out in these forums to keep in touch 🤔
If I were you I'd stop stressing over balance, if you can't enjoy the game in the state it's in you should probably move on, the warlord will not be fixed.
Let me answer with a question: why do you need something guaranteed after a succesful parry?Originally Posted by Meanpie13 Go to original post
I don't understand why they hate warlord and peacekeeper so much. I assume they are afraid because they watched too many tournaments where they were abused (which kinda explains the things happening to Nobushi if you remember the unlock guy and the 10k tournament).
I know, it's a crazy idea isn't itOriginally Posted by Meanpie13 Go to original post
Players find out anyways tha Full-Block mechanic is broken anyways ....
The real intention would be to at least see Heart of Valdamir FB stance happen before something should happen, but thats not really how its used is it?
Talk about Answer question with a question.![]()
I play the hell out of my Warlord only because i still keep in mind he is still only a Heavy and should always be thought of that way unless they change his secondary title to Hybrid. You want some unofficial fancy crap, that would be why people play Hybrids along side a main classed hero.
Most hybrids carry a shield, and perform about how any real Warlord player that thought they were playing hybrid perform. Cheers. Chew on that one for a bit. And no they really dont use there shields either, but a Warlord does. How bout that crap.
Warlord gets plenty off a FB block, a guaranteed light attack tied into a chain starter. Not much of a chain in a warlord? Never was in any heavy classed hero, why would this heavy be different. I'm sorry i missed the first 2 years of this game, players tend to hang back and wait on balance changes to see if a game will be playable before forking over any dough, money currency or yen.
Oh, you also get a unblockablable, can not be parried, but if fast enough dodged HeadButt, that can immediately be spammed all day long after the first one, Warlord is Top tier in the right hands and fun as hell when someone really takes the time to learn what its currently doing.
Only hero that can sheild charge others up entire cliffs and stairs and cont. to ledge/ ledge kill a hero all day long.
Oh ya well i guess you also get a free Throw/Shield charge to instant kill into .... well players choice really, in fact Warlord only hero that can 180 behind charge into opposite direction players, Congrats the entire map is blocked until player decides its not, what else could possibly be given?
I looked at the old warlord, the moves are unchanged, if not speed buffed if anything.
Your old gear mechanics are gone, get over it. Apparently that is were everyone problem was, not in balance changes that followed it. Cheers again.
Agreed, just take it out. Remove his shield punch while you're at it.Originally Posted by allenhollow Go to original post
