Spam wise, patch failed

[LordRichrich]

Spam in general is still heavily present

I see a guy in black lallemor armour, I don't go near him anymore. He just spams me to death. Anyone using a spmmitar spams me to death
A freaking PLATED 2-HANDER spammed me to death
Putting a bloody cap on weapon speeds. You shouldn't be able to swing a bar mace faster than a sickle no matter WHAT your wpf.
It's retarded ffs

Ok

[zagibu]

He has a point though, the patch didn't really address the spam problem.

[Keltesh]

faster than a sickle

I think I found your problem.

[Elmetiacos]

Spam can't really be fixed. Button mashing works in almost all computer or console fighting games and always has... M&B/Warband less so than most, but you still can win by spamming a lot of the time and so people do it. It would require very extensive changes, which may be beyond what a modder can do, to change it.

[Vexus]

Spam wasn't addressed? Then why I have 20-30 less wpf now?

[Boss_Awesome]

faster than a sickle

lol

Spam isn't a big deal as is.  It is a way to clear out the peasants and weaker players.  Don't try to play the "i attack you attack" game with spammers, block them at least twice before making any sort of move and try to get out of range and reengage.  It will take some practice but spammers set themselves up to die to someone who knows what he is doing.

Agreed, if you spam against a decent player, even if he's dressed up as a peasant, you are dead (i've seen a guy named imperial guard something own armored people that where spamming him and he was using only a pithfork and peasant clothes). The problem is not in the game, but in the players.

Spam was nerfed, for example at lvl 30 WM6 pre-patch you had 180 WPF, now you'll have 150 WPF. That's a pretty big nerf. Spam seems still present because of the light armors people now wear (the lighter your armor is the faster you are) and there is the lightning-fast Katana, that will probably get nerfed again. Usually spammers have 0 blocking skill, if you block one of their attacks they are dead.

Wait what weapon are u using your stats and athletic weaponmaster

It sounds like your dying to 1 and two handers

See balanced

I think your projecting your own failsauce, its a defence mechanism humans use

I mean so the balance suggested here is nerf whatever others are using to boost ur sickle

Best 1h new sickle btw is spamorific I approve

Also learn to build a character u might be failing hard there

Fail


Show me how you block and counterattack  an  lvl 30 agility/wpf spam build  as lvl 10 farmer.
The most server have a strange delay and without  a super fast high-end i-connection,  all your antispam hints  are useless.

Fail.

you = dumb

You = rose coloured spec wearing fanboy.

[Phyrex]

Spam happens because you don't attack back, have a faulty build or just plain suck.
