2h stab madness

[Thomek]

Ok, but what about Katana stab then?????

[tizzango]

Just like everything else...

I totally agree I was just merely referencing it so that people will remember how nerfed it is.. I mean, it could be a lot worst.

Change 2h animations so they're like 1h, in that each swing is specialized. Having so few disadvantages to any of the 2h animations, I feel that the thrust is the only one that is actually specialized. If anything, I'd say change the horizontal swings so that they're more specialized, having clear disadvantages like the 1h ones do.

Thrusts are the only swings that 2hers have that really have any downsides. I don't believe that the thrust by itself is OP. I believe however, that the combination of their animations, their swing damage, and their speed, that allow two-handers to utilize the thrust so effectively without any downsides, makes for an overpowered weapon.

Disclaimer: By 2h I obviously mean greatswords, and not just the ones that have "Greatsword" in the name.

Still OP, easy mode and instant.

i am 2 h hero myself and i would  like lolstabb nerfed, it is insane how others use that stabb, other way is to reduce stabb damage so maybe people would think twice befor stabb, not even talking about insane reach anddamage it does. blah blah blah i just QQ.

Players were complaining of the game being too slow. Now we have a high speed attack that can be punished with anticipational blocking. Now they complain it's too fast.

There's a difference between "fast" and "instant". As for "anticipational blocking", I find myself getting hit with stabs all the time even though I think to myself before it happens, "He's gunna stab, block down" and I do... then die anyway.

Also, agree on greatsword thrusts - they've always been too powerful and had too much reach.

If you fail against instastabs - then you don't have enough of reaction. Anyway, instastabs is something that can be done only by high STR users or against no armour. If you whine that your 45 gold 10 armour Black Hood with Mask doesn't defend your face - good day sir, quit roleplaying ninjas.

Just give them polearm stab, they stop raging about instastab. This will change most 2hheroes to swordman form 4directional piker.
Some 2h sword price nerf then will be useful.

Maybe the main reason of the complaining is the fact that the only class that got that high speed attack fully working while still getting 65+ range is 2h....

[Kalp]

nerf 2h

What do you mean punished? I chamber them all the time but they just block. That's with a 91 speed weapon, with which I remember being able to get the chamber hit in without them being able to block. Doesn´t work anymore. Blocking the stab rarely stuns them enough to get a free hit in, even with an early rightswing hit.

everyone whine but paul in my opinion you cans make super fast stab attack combo 1 after 1

[Leshma]

Certain players know how to abuse this very well. There's nothing more retarded than fighting a player who lolstabs all the time.
