Another ragemoment...

Average fight with a 1h for me vs kuyak 2h hero:

Direct freaking hit in full speed with a high tier MW 1h weapon straight in to the kuyakguys chest and the game laughs at me:
"Tought you made some damage there didnt you?....too bad shithead, it glanced BWAHAHAHA". Leaving me standing there wondering wtf. Sometimes same thing repeats itself 3 hits in a row.

And than the kuyakhero does the stabmove and comes so close to me with the sword that its model is practically through me and without any noticable speed or anything goes for a stab and than the Warbandgremlin comes again: "Thought it would glance didnt you? Sucks to be you, he did full damage BWAHAHAHA".

Wat?

Shit footwork, gg

[Kelugarn]

I find it to be more frustrating when they can turn a fully extended thrust into me for full damage. It's like the half second where it hangs out in the air has turned their sword into some kind of anti-matter weapon.

[zagibu]

Well, real 2h heroes clutch their sword so hard the vibration frequency from their muscles transfers over to the blade, which vaporates any molecules on contact. That's the explanation behind 2h stabs.

Long 1h without shield is superior to 2h in duels, really love that you need always choose right attack for every situation, not only spamming randomly like most 2h + 1h left swing easily make up for 2h stab. What makes difference is that 2h works very good with armor-strong crutch, 1h not so much + 2hander usualy have better position for kicking.

How can skilled players still qq about 2h stab is beyond me , 2h stab is super easy to block and great opportunity to counter attack thanks to stun.

Didnt acctually complain about the 2h stab, well not delibertly. I was just wierded out by the logic of these 2 occasions that sometimes repeat itself in duel atleast for me all way to often. The lolstab is quite predictable yes, I just dont get the mechanic behind it when its litterally pulled pointblank and works. Sometimes it doesnt...it feels random. How the hell does it do full damage and my weapon glances in full direct hit with a MW weapon, speed and 8PS into a kuyak(which aint tincan).

Now I know what you saying, you just probably couldnt keep up, shit foot work, you didnt hit some sweetspot or you just lightly touched him with the edge. Mostly yes, but often no. Lets just say I can tell the diffence of when I should do some tasty fleshcutting or glance.

[Nightingale]

Well duh, he is a two handed swordsmen, therefore obviously a superior duelist.

[Macropus]

Tiberius, just make 24-18 build and don't give a shit about 2handers in duels. 
It's easier to block with 1h, it's easier to make enemy miss hits with 1h, that kinda compensates it's drawbacks in duel.

You went pretty quickly from being a greatsword wielding 2h guy to a 1h+shield guy complaining that 2h is OP.

I think its funny

I think more 2h heroes should switch classes for some gens to eventually understand that they should be GRATEFUL for the ezmodery they are granted, instead of whining that they still cant shoot lazers out of their greatswords to take down enemy horse ranged.

Mainly because I don't think you should be able to start a stab while I'm facehugging you, and through mouse-wiggling, do full damage point-blank and hit faster then my swing, it makes no sense. That and the fact that weapon stun on the stab is rare. At least in my personal experience.

[CrazyCracka420]

How much power strike do you have with your 1h?  I'm assuming you're using a cutting weapon?

Cut weapons are pretty bad with 6 or less power strike, I usually don't do "reliable" strikes against heavier armor with a cutting sword until I have 7 power strike.  Also not having terrible footwork is crucial.

Maybe you should use a blunt or pierce weapon if you're glancing on kuyaks.

Tbh I made this thread purely for entertainment purpuses. Pretty oblivious from my tone that I didnt make it out of hopes that something will change. And  I complained about 2hs being OP even back when I was carring one. It was acctually the main reason why I stopped playing it in the first place. Nothing entertaining in playing the game in supereasymode. It really bore me to tears.

I am pretty happy with my current build and class. Its flexible and competitive. Its just that occasional flaws do jump out from time to time in duel. But overall all iz good.
