KNIGGAS could be here...
At this point, which character is less monkey-brained, Lawbringer or Gryphon?
I hate chinks, i hate italians
>>1921216I actually like fighting Jiang Jun, but every other chink I absolutely hate.
>>1921207i would say lawbringer. he has a lot more variety in moveset, feats and perks. you can absolutly play monkey-brained with bash-light-bash-light though
>>1921349bash after any light attack was a fuckin' mistake
Gryphon is still such a squandered concept. He's supposed to be Lawbringer if Lawbringer spent years learning moves from Chinese, Japanese, and Viking users of similar polearm weapons (or at least similarly large weapons)His main influences should have been >Nobushi>Jiang Jun>Highlander (Zweihanders and Claymores are functionally short-handled polearms with how they're used)>Kensei>RaiderAnd hell, if you were to make him nowadays you'd also have Sohei in the mix.But instead he takes none of the actual gameplay concepts from any of those characters. He steals animations and voicelines, but nothing else.He SHOULD have had a stance, maybe even two stances. A character that fluidly switches between different fighting styles that he's learned. At the very least he should have adopted the backstep from JJ and Nobu, but with his own spin on it.
Proposed changes for Highlander Nerf>increase the recovery of the kick so that it's GB vulnerable currently if you mash kick you'll just kick people who try to GB youBuff>increase the hyperarmor frames for his neutral heavies so that they're comparable to Warlord (currently you only get 100-200 ms instead of the standard 300ms that neutral HA heavies get)Maybe even 400ms. Warlord's HA neutral heavies exist alongside his other amazing neutral pressure. Sohei's neutral heavies all get 500ms of hyperarmor.These two changes feel very safe and pedestrian. I don't think anyone would have a problem with them.
Khatun feels too high IQ for just how monkeybrained and powerful your opponent can be. Haven't bought her but I've training with her and just thinking this feels like a lot of work for how braindead some popular heroes are. It's probably just inexperience/skill issue on my end because she seems really cool to play.
>>1922331Its a damn shame the prince of persia skin went to Ara and not Khatum
>>1921821>Tap back on right stick becomes like a polearm twirl deflect, very clearly wu lin inspired, attacks pass right through it. Even says a short bark in mandarin to nail it home>But you can follow it up with a Highlander style kick to follow up into Veteran's Slash or JJ's stamina draining slap, which is more like a backhand strike for Gryphon.>Do something all his light finishers being undodgeables. Boring, unininspired. Noone likes em.>Give him some executions from other polearm wielders as well because why nothttps://youtu.be/6X4hTXFMD4Y?si=FLnZKsixsgGmUOEohttps://youtu.be/thaFTD6MEhA?si=DgcU8e9P8n_xhAqihttps://youtu.be/U8-xXAUQsOY?si=Mz_-KftQjL643A26If those order descriptions are anything to go by he's basically disappeared anyway so off to the backbench he goes. A shame.
I have no For Honor reaction images... Post what you got.And you have to hurry. I have it on good word Italy will send a redhead to te noia you if you don't.
>>1923327I have undodgeables, send all the italians you want
>>1923327>pulls out ethernet cablewhat now spaghetti bitch
>>1923320>that picproof that the knights have the best fashion
>>1923353>>1923329Great. Now I have no reaction images and this bitch keeps eating all my spaghetti and won't leave.
Why shouldn't I buy Sohei? I'm liking what I'm seeing.
>>1923540he's cool as fuckgo for it
>>1923577He is but so is Khatun. Can't decide.
>>1923639One is a tall dude. The other one is a (literal) Mongoloid chick.
>>1923954dual sabres and a defelct dash are cool tho
>>1923956Sohei allows you to fight the world all by yourself, forever. If you can keep collecting souls, you can continue to heal back to full health.The max possible HP pool of a Sohei is 176 (with the correct feats)Imagine starting a 1v4 with all of your souls, and you have your T4 in your back pocket. They wail on you, bringing you down to like 20 HP. Nope, you use your T2 and heal back to a full 176. And then you immediately pop your T4 and get all your souls back.A Sohei that can get their souls back is better at stalling than anyone in this game. If you can get your shit, your actual true HP pool can balloon to the hundreds.
>>1923961Yeah I went ahead and bought Sohei. He's just taking some getting used to. I like being a HP juggernaut as Warlord so I like seeing Sohei has that potential too. Plus, warrior monks are just fucking rad.
>>1923972As someone who never plays Sohei, but has played against a bunch of really good ones, here is my general advice.1. Don't start trying to soft feint your zone to GB right out the gate. Let it fly a couple times. See if they're just blocking or dodge attacking it. Once you've seen what they're up to, then start getting those GB soft feints in.2. Your neutral heavies are *technically* inferior to your zone. They're 100ms slower and deal 1 less damage. However you still get HA at 400ms. Throw these out every now and then to mix up your neutral game. Sometimes you'll throw it out and people will just eat it because they never see the move. 3. Do NOT be constantly going for souls 100% of the time. Sometimes the best way to mess with your opponent is just going for damage or using a certain soul finisher multiple times.4. Jumping off the previous point. Your top heavy unblockable finisher deals the most damage (20). Use it. Your top light finisher is undodgable (and all his light finishers are 400ms). Use it. Hell you might even want to spam that one. By using these top attacks repeatedly you're conditioning your opponent to go for top parries. And if they're trying to dodge the top heavy unblockable, you mix in the undodgable light attack to discourage that behavior.5. You don't *need* your default T3 unless you really want the meme of 1-shotting someone from full health. Your T1 is more than enough for supplementing your super's already absurd damage. It's basically up to preference between default T3 and Tough As Nails.6. Your side heavy finishers both pin people. This means they interrupt hyperarmor. Won't come up very often, but if your opponent has lots of hyperarmor, consider throwing out your side heavy finishers if they're trying to trade. Because your damage is shit, people WILL try to trade.Sohei is arguably better equipped for true "mind-games" than any other character. Condition people. Establish expectations. Groom people.
>>1924031I am reading, I am learning, I am integrating, I am turning knowledge into experience into habit
so sohei has what shuggies had
>>1924059In what way?
>>1924054nta but also: your dodge heavy can execute. when you get a gb go for your heavy souls first, since the rest can easily gotten by parries. keep your souls for healing feat or tier 3 for more damage, dont go for seven point strike unless you really hate that one guy. zone into zone to external in ganks with its huge hitbox.
>>1924261>>1924054I am that anonGetting heavy souls off GB is 100% the move every single time. I agree the 7force is basically a "fuck you" buttonbut sometimes getting rid of a guy quickly before an enemy teammate shows up is huge.Sohei's zone, in terms of properties, hitboxes, and timings, is one of the single best moves in the whole game. That zone is a fucking workhorse. The mileage that Sohei gets out of that zone attack is ridiculous. As a dedicated Highlander autist I am jealous of its soft-feint. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO FAST FLOW DIRECTLY FROM MY ZONE GOD DAMN IT.the fact that all the light finishers are 400ms often means you don't even need the heavy parries to get them all
>>1923327Che noia
>>1924329Yeah I'm getting into my flow with sohei. People fucking PANIC when they see your soul count climbing so I'm having to cope with panic light spam
>>1923327
I exclusively play heavies because my brain small and i prefer straightforward mechanics
>>1925446as opposed to the gigabrain assassin characters like Orochi and Tiandi
>>1925448but tiandi is vanguardwait a minute gameplay wise, is tiandi just assassin?
>>1925461>is the character with more dodge attacks than anyone else in the game just an assassinhe also has a forward dodge deflectblame ubisoft for their retarded """class""" systemwhat the hell makes LB a "hybrid" instead of a heavy?
i miss the old shuggy hug mechanics
>>1924059>>1925715what?
>>1925721one move that does big damage on certain situations and also health recovery?
fuck this i can't take it anymore, i uninstalled this again
>>1926471what character were you playing?
>>1926476against chinks and the italian nigger whorehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R9Qiej-Tqo&ab
>>1926483WE ARE HEAVEN AND EARTH, YOU SKILLESS DOGS! IF YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND THE SUPERIORITY OF 4000 YEARS OF CHINESE MARTIAL ARTS HISTORY THEN YOU CLEARLY LACK EYES WITH WHICH TO SEE MOUNT TAI! WE CHINESE HAVE NEVER EVER BEEN DEFEATED, OUR GLORIOUS WINNING STREAK OF 4000 YEARS HAS GONE UNCONTESTED TO THINK ONE SUCH AS YOU COULD EVER HOPE TO DENT SUCH RIGHTEOUS WEIGHT IS LAUGHABLE!
>>1923327I guess last thread's OP works
crossover hero skin ideas. Post em
this is going to be really out there.but an Akkadian skin with the Sargon type mask for either Berserker or the mongolian chick and change the weapon to 2 sapparas
Holy shit I didn't know there were still For Honor discussions on this site after /fhg/ died a slow painful death all those years ago... damn...
>>1927154Gryphon
>>1926483I'd rather fight 1000 Virtuosas in a row if it meant I never had to fight varangian again
Soheifag here, got to rep 1 about halfway to rep 2. Is there any other way to get my nuke stab off or does it have to be off of a forward bash?
>>1928977any parry will guarantee the bash, which grants itif you GB near a wall you can throw them into the wall, wait briefly (like half a second) and then bash to get it pretty sure if you throw someone into a wall and INSTANTLY bash them it will do a janky hit-stun thing where your bash won't connect because they're still in the "guardbroken wallsplat" state
>>1928977read this page https://forhonorinfohub.com/character?=35
>some peacemaker nigger stabs, and runs away until they can corner me in a duelwhat a nigger
>>1930871>Knight player is a cowardImagine my surprise
>>1930871>assassin acts like an assassin>WTF BROalso>dying to a PKnigga what?
>>1931089it was a duel, niggernot domination matchwhat kind of gaynigger fagmaster playing DUEL MODE stabs you and runs away just for the bleeding damage? and i dont mean just dodging away but actually running across the fucking map?
>>1931104I do that all the time
how do people even half of this roster and not fall asleep
i called multiple people all forms of 'nigger' i know and still didnt get bannedi guess ubisoft doesnt care anymore or i didnt call enough people niggers or faggot yet?
>>1932960I believe it's about how many people report you. You could actually not have violated any rules, but with sufficient reports against your account, you will get suspended etc.
Got your Apollyon shader yet?
sigh
You reckon there'll be a season where they just let us choose which menu theme we want? Choose what minion skins we can see and everything that was time limited is now just available?
>>1933555Absolutely not lol
>>1933623Should be at the 10 year mark.
>>1933635Servers will be shut down long before that idea even gets floated in their office
BEHOLD... fresh fashion
>>1933870>elemental themeskino
>>1933870>effects>toys R us swordyikes
>>1933870change the weapon to a normal sword and its good
>>1934441Or at least the blade
give me some warden fashion ideasso far I've got>Byzantine>Kingsguard>elf looking mf legendary>basic crusader
>>1934500That's about all you can make with warden isn't itI just wear the Dullahan set
>>1934501I wash thinking of making a medieval vader or some shitmaybe an eastern outfit with the face masks, wish he had some curved sword options that look good. I kick myself for missing the event flamberge blade
>>1933533Time to come home (you hate your home)
>>1923954>The other one is a (literal) Mongoloid chick.That's fine, the real shit part is how her heavy deflect punish. You know, the thing you'll be using 100% of the time. DOESN'T INTERRUPT ARMOR. LITERALLY FUCKING USELESS
Are you supposed to not be able to dodge 400ms chain lights?
>>1934902You aren't supposed to be able to react to anything apparently. You can only guess
>>1935157just throw lights and dodge on red. Game was solved ages ago
Why is every breach game so outrageously one sided?
>>1935421Just play dominion.
>>1935829But breach gives more xp, rewards and is a bit more engaging
What do you even do against constant relentless soft-feint gb/unblockable/dodge-on-red spam.These characters that got reworked into this generic mess are a fucking nightmare to deal with, it's like they don't have to commit to any attack and can just throw out whatever impulsively comes to mind.
>>1936064Gonna play as some character for special needs kids, see how that turns out
3-0 to me and I'm falling asleep playing shuggy. This fucking game
>>1936064What's wrong anon? Can't you make reads? :^)
Heads or tails?
>>1921207Lawbringer
maybe i should play nobushi
>it's a raider with unlimited fucking stamina constantly feints or pulls the ol' sidered to topred manouver on you for free foreverah, yes.
>>1936436At least it's a soft feint from only one direction
>make my way over to the big teamfight>immediately lose 2 thirds of my health to overlapping external unblockable heavy spam, before I can even get in range to hit anyone with anything>revenge bar sitting pretty at precisely zeroThis game is just pure nonsense
>>1934780Seriously though, what's the point of deflecting anything if they can just hyperarmor through it
>>1936472Nevermind, I'm retarded you can do a kick followup on deflect.
post more fashion
boring tin can incel
not enough toys r us and shiny effects?
whoremonger still autowins breach on attackers with a tier 1 feat btwe-sports ready competitive skill based read based e-celeb and reddit approved game btw
>>1936615>actually using the egyptian armorApologize
>>1936854Crazy that those warmonger feats exist and people still expect the devs to give a fuck about "balance" lmao>>1936893chad. oppressed sohei underdogs rise up
>>1936893apologize for what mr shadow the hedgehog?Its the closest to the byzantine style with the colorful accents mimicking mosaics
>>1936931Yeah you're an incel, we know. You don't need to write a paragraph when your shit taste in heroes and aesthetics already said it all a thousand fold.
>>1937034>plays sohei>talks about taste in heroes
>>1937052I'm the sohei, that was someone else.
>>1937052Well I was gonna be on your side and say that guy's overreacting but never mind. And I am neither of those guys.Farming up 7k for the Kotonoha outfit. I like the pattern on it. Only at Rep 2 so not even close to unlocking all the outfits for him.
you get the black color for the hero wether you win or not in the realistic duelsdo you get anything extra if you win?I just get into a game and afk until they kill me
>>1937257Yeah I've gotten it off of losses and I've also gotten it first try everytime
>>1936615>>1936931this looks very cool dude, history maxxing over edgefashion all day every daycan't wait to unlock medjai to make some great ancient egypt fits
>>1937319First rare set he gets turns him into an armored mummy
>>1937319Insane cope. Of course you want to play the fat stick nigger
its all coming together slowly
>>1938237tin can incel
>Overall rep 2, their character is level 1. Never even touched beforeok>Perfect deflects everything, parries every light can cancel their unblockables almost like a full second into them, softfeints, perfect punishes, dodges every mixup. Absolutely no chance in hell of even touching them.
>>1938263>Enemy leaps off the ground for an attack>Suddenly, no they didn't it was a feint and you're being guardbreakedDo you know how jarring this looks
Why do indicators still keep on disappearing during fights? Total bullshit
>>1938237 now make him fuck virtuosa in a manner that would make slayed.coom pause.
>>1938361im making these helmets to 3D print them, not to animate
>>1938366Ah, hm. well done anon.
>the viking bot still wins the war map good to see nothing changed.
>>1937414sick as fuck, under much consideration i will first unlock ocelotl after that medjai. game is fun asf and when i lose i don't get mad like i would in league of legends (thank god i quit that shit game months ago)
Why are the new character's feet so thin? Shit looks weird as fuck. Also that creepy smile makes her look like a fucking slasher villain in game. Freak
I just recently downloaded this game again to play with my friend... and I fucking hate it so much. It can be fun when it goes right, but I don't think I have ever raged like this in any other game. It feels to me like MOBA on steroids in this area. The only saving grace is that the matches aren't 40 minutes long.
They should give Kyoshin the generic anime protag haircut
>175ms on a 144hz monitor on human benchmark>still can't parry lights even when I'm fighting some button mashing baboon who literally only throws lights like a spasticshould I just kms or what?
All a man can do is laugh
maybe I should learn to play lawbringers instead
