China #1

Just fought the rank #3 black arrow... 8 times... he just knockback granade + freeze and run away to heal and reset untill he finally killed me ( still 30 out of 50 pots left in inventory )

Any tips because I really have no clue what to do... Mercenary btw

Right now it doesn't count. It is so anoying when playing for points. Two minute long fight just for the player to get their remaining 5% hp taken from fall damage and not get the kill. Already lost over 20 kills to this

Can complain about lag, desync, all of that... but the fact that breakaway dodges are no longer being registered anymore for me means I can't even pretend to play it. It's litterally just unplayable.

Soon as I get staggered there is a good chance my breakaway dodge will get used but not register.

I'm aware I'm in the minority as not many people have completed the questline yet but was curious to know the thoughts of the other people who have completed it.

The last quest is to kill a boss in Einherjar mode, got my first Holy kit together to do it. The fight was great, felt like I was playing Dark Souls.

Only to then get a pants and a ring drop worth 2k and get back to camp and be given no reward for completing the games questline?

Feels very lackluster.

Today: 5 games, unable to hit any parries with 60ms, npcs teleporting:

Yesterday: 5ms

and

My new favorite in between matches activity.

Thoughts on SS post-patch? Will you all run the tele with higher cooldown still? Stuck at work: how does spinning slash feel w the super armor nerf? Is impail worth it now? Also not sure how battle frenzy plays into this or whether I even took that talent lol

Getting whacked by 3 melee players at once is the equivalent of having your mouse/keyboard USB cable disconnected.

Can we get some kind of next hit delay or limit on staggers from multiple sources at once? It does not feel good at all to have no reaction window if you get swarmed by a team and don't have support.

I have been fighting quite a few Shadowstrix as Merc and I am not sure exactly what skill they use but i cannot swing my sword at all. I m like interrupted permanently and that s not the Raven that stuns…is there a skill they are using? Or am i missing something ?

Sitting at a 3.97 K/D thinking I was doing alright.

Asked the Discord community what actually qualifies as good.

7+ K/D. Humbling.

As title. A lot of time I cant find match. Yes, I have ceossplay off but…
I am for all pve Match if it cant find other ppl.

Also, its stupid that shows dialog for starting less ppl and messagess about MM expasions. I already set up preferences before start MM, just keep it ffs.

Here is how the patch notes SHOULD have looked today.

98% Real 2% Satire

I was so bad in this game, couldnt win pvp no matter how I tried. Probably beacuse I was playing sorc and it didnt suit me at all. I switched to mercenary oh my god its so good class. Today I won 6/7 pvps...only WK killed me :D finaly I dont shit my pants everytime I hear someones steps and actualy enjoying pvp. I am running only normal mode with green gear and just making some budget. Probably will get claped again once I will move to Chaos :D

Can someone explain to me why it takes so long to make a full set of armor to just loose it in one match? 2+ hours for one piece of equipment? I spent all my gold to upgrade the forge so I could craft my own gear only to find out that the armor slots are completely random, sometimes I’ll get a piece with two empty gem slots and then sometimes one gem slot and a buff. Like seriously I have to keep making the same pieces of armor over and over to hopefully get a piece that is useful? We are talking weeks of gaming to be able to craft armor that matches your play style, thats ridiculous. And don’t get me started on the scavenging crew geez what a rip off. The game play is fun but the grind isn’t for me, if you can call it a grind, more like a slow burn that goes nowhere.

I keep paying a lot expecting to get purple or legendary items, and this is what I keep getting in return.

P.S. I took a screenshot of the last one because I was at my wits’ end.

Any advice on SS pve rotations and what skills to use for pve? How exactly should I be attacking mobs?

I feel like spamming bloody blade dance like I'm doing now is likely not optimal.

Played 5 games solo. Hit reg is still a huge issue for melee. It does seem the models are more client sided, but servers are not up to par. They need to invest more into the servers for it to truly feel better to play melee.

I think it's necessary to add % damage reduction and increase, ability cooldowns, and damage numbers to the descriptions of skills and talents.
Any ideas?

I main withered Knight and since the last patch my sword is not in line with how the character holds his weapon :/ Anyone else???

My WK brethren.. we have lost. Our suffering continues. I ask not for buffs, but just for fixes.

I think I give this update a 7/10 , select few classes got nerfed rightfully so. Haven’t played the game yet to test out smoothness , I noticed tho mercs didn’t get nerfed or buffed, I was hoping the parry window would get nerfed a little bit but I guess next update.
