Shield bump

[Tovi]

I often fight against some guys (or girlz) who spam my shield. I stand peacefully the end of the storm but just after their strike, I'm hit by a slight bump that makes me release my guard.
It looks like a kick but it's faster and it seems come from their shield or their 2h weapon, dunno.

Did I miss something ?

Are you using any throwing weapons?
If yes then they might have been in ranged mode, which makes these bumps when someone attacks you from close distance.

Mmmmh, that's possible. I will check this.

I personally think throwing with a shield should remove the bumps. It's kinda difficult to get close and hit something and not get chopped in half.

Throwing is basically just aboyt spam, because it's so innaccurate, but if there are 5 throwers throwing at 5 unshielded enemies before they clash, they're bound to get a kill or two.

Depends on the weapon thrown I guess. Throwing lances got great accuracy with minimum wpf requirement.
