Fix 1h left swing

[Christo]

BTW: That's exactly I am talking about, dummy.

It's still an Early hit, you just see things from a diferent perspective.

You see the curved blade's end, but the straight part hits you earlier, hence; An earlier attack.

I love how you think I know nothing about the Game, or it's mechanics, and that everyone is stupid, only you know things.
Ignorance at it's best.

It's an early hit for its own model, but not an earlier hit compared to rest of 1h, which hit at the same time as the elite scimi does.

[Christo]

Dude, why the hell are you nitpicking on things I didn't even say?

Pathetic.

[Xant]

You said this, didn't you? Elite scimitar (normal is even more "bugged") hits earlier than the elite scimitar model does. But not any earlier than any other 1h, so why would it be any better at the spamming than anything else?

Imo the only thing that can do this really effectively, is the leet spammitar, with it's buggy early attack.

[Christo]

Yes, but I didn't mention that because it's a weapon that hits early not mechanics wise, but model wise.

It's because it makes you SEE, that it hits later, but it's used as a straight blade ingame.

You love nitpicking right?

[Xant]

How would that make it unbeatable? Doesn't matter what you see or don't see, if you block once then attack back it doesn't matter how early the model does or doesn't hit.

[Christo]

I didn't say that it's unbeatable.

Stop making up facts, and stop making up bullshit that I didn't even say.

[Xant]

Simple picture time for Christo.

BlackMilk starts a thread, right? It's about 1h left swing being broken because you can't do anything against the spam. Among other things he says this:

its pretty much unbeatable now

Here's what Christo(that would be you) replies:

Let me know if you need any more help connecting the dots.

After re-reading the topic, I admit, yes. I re-edit my post, talking only for myself.

Still, you are nitpicking, and talking bullshit. I didn't say that scimitar is unbeatable.

Are you bored or something?

[BlackMilk]

My mistake there. Forgot to add "for me".
Maybe someone should move this to Beginners Guides, because I seriously have no idea what to do against it apart from blocking multiple times which cant be the right thing really.

It still doesn't make any more sense, you know. Curved model doesn't help in spamming, you still just hit back like you would otherwise. Now, the speed of the scimitar helps a bit, for sure.

The combination of the two factors is what makes the Scimi a pain to fight.  But no weapon is unbeatable, some just easier than others.

No doubt, the curve helps with feints and such. Not what the thread is about though. In what BlackMilk is talking about, only speed of the 1h matters.

Ok guys I found my way to counter this (atleast partially). Thanks for the help tho..err nevermind. Thank you Xant for proving me wrong lol.
