Fix stabbing someone who kicks

[Korgoth]

Kick is hardcoded, it's exactly the same in Native.

Well I haven't played Native for ages. I miss the days when kicking was OP.

[Tor!]

To be fair, kicks shouldnt gain range even though they lose blocking. Longer weapons already have a major kick advantage where the shorter weapons have to move in for the hit.

Remove blocking in kicks? Poor Hearst, what is he going to do now 

[Jarlek]

One thing that has always annoyed me (and it might even be a bug) is that if you hit a guy that is kicking (not his block. HIM. As in doing damage to the person currently trying to kick you), it doesn't cancel the kick. More than once I've hit a guy who tried to kick me because he blocked wrong, only to be hit by the kick right after and him getting a free hit on me. Really annoying.

I think I posted a thread about it a long time ago.

In my experience they can't hit you during the 'no block' time from the kick if you actually do damage to them. Regardless, hitting them should cancel the kick.

I'll see into that.

But yeah. Getting hit while kicking should always stop the kick.

Thats a serious ballsacking.

This. I regularly use kick because it's very powerful if you know how to use it and I wouldn't mind at all just losing the blocking ability, without any boost.

The kick already has the same range as the stab of my katana, it doesn't need to be buffed in any way, only nerfed.

I don't think kicks go that far.. Because with a katana (any swors)you also have your footwork.


Edit: i see, you are a backpeddlar!?

I never backpedal. I either fight, or run away. Never backpedal. You can't backpedal 90% of the time anyway, since the katana is so damn short.

Your katana has 50 weapon length while stabbing? Interesting.

Yes, since if you do it from much further away you glance or "miss". When I say miss, I mean that your sword goes through them for a moment then you're flapping around in the wind because of the turning nerf.

This. Vex kills me like this all the time, I stab him (and do damage), he kicks me through my stab damage, then I'm stunned and he pummels me like the nerdy kid at school.

I have experienced that myself - attack a guy, hit him JUST BEFORE his kick lands on you, score a hit but take a free one as well.

Im pretty sure we all have had that.

I didn't - kick always works on me...
