    In regards to nobushi after more experience and seeing footage you 100% can dodge out of her chain lights. I have no info in regards to her hidden stance lights though.

    Hopefully today i'll get to look into those along with Aramusha's deadly feint lights.
    Since only Orochi and Nuxia have officially received the changes to their light chains, the rest of the roster isn't guaranteed and may be prone to inconsistencies if players are able to dodge out of theirs at times. It's best to mention the heroes you're concerned about in your feedback to be on the safe side until the developers officially confirm who else has received the changes and if they're going to apply the changes to non-chain lights as well.

    Yeah, lightspamm is out of control at the momend. Specially PK, Shaman, BP, Ochochi and so on...haven´t seeen they doing normal attacks, only lights and thats super annoying. I hope they fix it & they bring the Testing Ground fight changes and Breach changes live.

    But you can dodge out of their light chains at any point due to the defender's frame advantage. BP and Shaman can't really do light spam because they only have a two light chain.

    As a Nobushi rep 70 I can tell you even before TG you can easily dodge her lights. I had thousands of cases where people would dodge even roll away in between my lights. Even better Aramusha can do full block stance between between my light chain before the changes.

    These TG changes are probably change in right direction. But lets not forget. Devs creates this light spam problem. Listening to 1 percent of 1 percent saying game is too easy or not knowing how to rework a hero so we will just give him faster lights. Now they ruined the game. Created a mess impossible to clean.

    These changes doesnt help with PK Aramusha and a lot of other light spammers. And PK and Aramusha are God tier on console. I know this very well myself because I sometimes play for fun ad PK. I just spam light attack button absolutely nothing else and I win. We just got destroyed by 4 Nuxia in TG. I dont really see it is helping much. I couldn't even attack a Nux with a light while she was constantly throwing light and heavies. We were ganking she throws a light to my teammate and I throw a heavy to her at the same time I got hit by her second light so pointless. Also another problem assassins get revenge very quick light spam on top of light spam. I eat attacks blocks GB 3-4 more times I get Nada.

    Game really became mindless light spamming. No skill required. It doesnt matter how good you are or how good you can mix up because you cant if enemys light is faster than anything you do

    The devs don't listen to anyone but themselves my dude. That much has been clear since before the launch of the game. Stop parroting tired old mis-information and propaganda you read on Reddit or heard from a click bait Youtuber.

    How is it that people still don't understand the changes made to frame advantage in the TG when it was explained in the patch notes, explained in at least 3 separate videos made by Freeze and Spaniard respectively and Ubisoft even went as far as making this thread and stickying it. You do not have to die to light chains in the Testing Grounds version of the game IF. You. Don't. Want. To.

    All the information you will ever need to understand this concept is on the first page of this very thread
