Black Prior Bulwark Counter is BROKEN | Forums

[Danzomatich]

Black Prior is a very strong hero, but the mechanic is UTHERLY broken and game breaking.

I played a breach map and this happed several times, not ONCE, but several times. His Bulwark Counter is BROKEN.

So what happened:

Im plating a Warden and trying to kill a Warmonger that is running away on 1 hit, I'm using Valiant Breakthrough, the warmonger gets out of range and for no reason my character turns to a Black Prior next to me who is sitting in Bulwark Stance (80% time of the game) and suddenly when I'm NOT EVEN TARGETING the Black Prior I get hit by his Bulwark Counter.

Another example:

I'm fighting pikemen to clear an archer tower. The same Black Prior is sitting on Bulwark Stance behind the pikemen, I'm hiting the pikeman and in the end I'm getting punished by his Bulwark Counter AGAIN !!!! Now I understand why he used it 80% of the time as it triggerd all atacks even once that are being not close to him.

The Bulwark Counter is absolutely broken as it triggers all events and attacks not even close to the character. Tell me how he is able to pull me behind him when the slight tip of my sword is not even close to his face.

He is not able to do that. You autotarget the closest visible opponent. Try a guardbreak next time.

He is punihing people that are not even close with the Bulwark Counter. No one autotargets pikemen(mobs) and I also stated I already used Valiant Breakthrough on a running target. You want to say that I autotarged someone with that at my back?!? Please read the article again.

Prior can counter attacks that are not locked on to him but they still have to make physical contact with him to work, what you writing here is non sense and untrue.

I read it, but it is so bs that I just wrote down what is the most likely thing that happened.

I'm playing the game for years and our of a suddent I attend to say UNTRUE things in the forums. I'm also pretty aware that Prior can counter attacks from other player, but when they are close, not 5 meters away.

I posted this in the Suggestions & Feedback for a reason. It's game breaking to be countered by a skill when physicaly there is another body between you and black prior. Bulwark Counter shouldn't work when the tip of the sword is merely close to the face of Black Prior, yet alone whene there is physicaly another target in between.

Please stop replying as this is bug report that needs to be checked, not a random rant over the game.

Well I was about to say this. May be a bug. I've once been tracked by gryphon bolt as I was doing a dodge attack myself.
The bolt litterally did a U turn like it was the arrow of yondu in guardian of the galaxy lmao.
