Did they change the 2h right swing?

Reflexes are reflexes, some have good ones others don't. You CAN train that though but it is very hard if it doesn't come naturally to you.

IMO everyone can be good at Mount&Blade, just takes time and dedication since there's so many different aspects to combat in this game, if you're not the best raw skill player then there's loads of other equally deadly options, should be a proper fighting style for everyone here. I enjoyed my time learning to play Mount&Blade, it didn't come instant, was even beat up by bots in single player in the beginning, noobing it around online as well until I started spending time on the duel server to hone my blocking skills, after having my blocking somewhat in check I started watching how people moved, especially those who did best, then I copied that, made my own moves, figured out more things. I love(d) these aspects of M&B, you don't find many games today who honor the true nature of gaming, learning and problem solving, just as it used to be until mainstream (consoles) and money ruined gaming overall.

 

I agree completely with this and I couldn't have said it better myself. Some people are just better then other people. But u can practice and become better then "you" were

If right swing speed is reduced maybe something else should be buffed to balance that? It seems heavy handed to nerf an entire swing just to fix a bug

Buff cut against armour or give more pierce on the stab. Cut is way too random anyway

This is assuming the right hand swing is actually changed just to fix hiltslashing

Polearms really got the same nerf? Hiltslashing is ridiculously easy with polearms. Can't believe they got the same nerf. Well I'm glad this patch pushed me over the brink of finally respeccing to polearms. I really like it so far. If I could just get a MW German poleaxe.

Elite player? You know how they got elite? Natural skill, some people at just better then others and all their work won't help them.

I got good by playing lots of duel. I was pretty bad when I first started.

If your gonna quote me quote the whole thing i said. The next sentence was about practicing etc.

[Fartface]

Well i never used hilt slash anyway.
and i prefer spam because i dont want gay ass long fights doing nothing but feints and blocks.
If you feint all spam thats just the way it is.

You can do a right swing, go to the toilet and be back just in time to see it hit.

Way to paraphrase wikipedia nimrod. Find some more sources. Ask Shik.

Also, it is one of the more gimpy two handers, get a SoW for dueling, or a great axe if you really want to mess people up - oh nevermind.. get a fucking 1 hander.

 
lets be 1hander bros Zisa !

cheap swings no more

[Candiru]

I'm missing 2handers as always since I've played it since I joined warband & crpg. Just thinking about that right swing though just makes me sick :/

[Kafein]

Gratz on killing hiltslash, which was not a problem except for the hard of thinking, and as bonus colateral damage you've gimped dancers as well.

Then this may be the most succesful nerf in cRPG history.

Haven't tryed playing after this nerf but i actually kind of already missed for a while how 2h works in native. Many people may dislike this lolstabbing and feintspamming stuff but that gives you a chance to get past even the very best players defense with feinting, in cRPG it's nearly impossibole and blocking even the best feints is really easy which imo makes duelling kind of boring.

Just trying the impossible, to help some of the more educationally challenged, like you douchebag.

[ThePoopy]

tryed 2h out on my alt, the other attack directions have to be balanced out, when i meet other 2handers i can spamm them with left swing every time they use right swing
