/fhg/ - For Honor General

Welcome to any game requiring at least a base iq of 110(meme or not). I mean any game that requires thinking about your moves or how to help a team in a close quarters brawl. Along with learning timings of moves or just parrying things. Just like any fighter user, but the negative side is that we have shitty connections and disconnects.

I don't even play LB but I guess it's cool or whatever...

I've been playing Dominion and the event like normal and i feel like i have most of the effects and skins.

This goes for 2 weeks so this isn't that bad.

Yeah when you finally check. It’s pretty neat to see all of it be near done.

FH is about as mentally taxing as Guitar Hero vs modes.

fuck no it ain't that ornament sucks ass for everyone

It unironically isn't because ever single move is unsafe

I like it on my skelly Raider. The big skull ornament looks too stupid on a skull helmet.

Anything else?

...

fuck
>hybrids have much longer range on their heavies

Is Cent still a hybrid in your timeline?

>feint my side dodge kick as shinobi since it’s 600ms
Kek, ok thanks user

I meant the classic hybrids, polearm users, LB/Nob/Valk, the new hybrids didn't register to me, although I guess Highlander could use more range since he's so shit in other areas

Lights shouldn't bounce at all because they're less committed attacks.
Parries should be parryable with correct timing.

Ah fuck I knew I forgot something
>shinobi's kick/backflip no longer has hyperarmor

I have no fucking idea why he had hyperarmor on those moves in the first place

I'm not sure about that, it would make a lot of mixups very easy since you could chain at any time

>it's another LB turtle duel episode

>parrying parries parrying parries
We Peking Opera style now?

>people say they have troubke against LB
>find him awful in duels
I must be playing him to aggressive or somthing.

I almost never shove on block. Actually i find it hard to block anything nowadays.

what about

>forward dodges can counter gb
>zerk's light deflect can be teched if it was a light attack

Shove on block is the only real strength of LB, it's super unfun to play against, you can't even counter a shove > light with a dodge > gb because he can chain into a heavy afterwards

I think removing shove > light on block, but keeping shove > gb and shove > heavy, then allowing him to shove on blocked heavies would be great

Just make it so blockshove chains into nothing, working only as a reset. Dodgeshove can remain as-is.

Being able to start any offense off a block is retarded, that's what parries and deflects (i.e. abilities with a timing component, easy as it is) are for.

dodge shove is nearly useless since it's so slow, shove on block > heavy is a great way to keep people off you in ganks, I just want to fix LB's 1v1 turtleness, let him stay a good defender

Shove on block should only allow a chain into heavy, or gb

dodge shove or shove on heavy hit/block should allow a chain into light, heavy, or gb

>assassin sprint speed is drastically reduced based on how low their hp is
>shugo's armor is refunded on cgb
>shugo's unarmored damage penalty removed
>warden zone now safe block
>roach zone no longer safe on block

I don't think you understand. Rewarding a block with an offensive opportunity is bad design. This includes both LB's current shove-block as well as Conq's heavy block into free GB.

Yes, it's a great way to keep people off you in ganks, but it also makes LB cancer in 1v1 on a fundamental level because he doesn't even need to parry, he can just spin his guard around like an autist until you get bored enough to enable his shove combo for him.

Disagree, warden's zone is much longer range than orochi's and it'd be straight up busted if it wasn't unsafe

Just make roach zone bounce off blocks so that he doesn't have frame advantage afterwards, roach really doesn't have much else aside from riptide strike

Kenman+Roach fusing into one superior being when

While I agree his shove on block is kinda annoying, it's only really a problem because block > shove > light is almost free damage since dodging it is much higher risk

keep dodge > shove > light and heavy hit/block > shove > light to give him more offensive options along with the rest of Storm Rush with a sword that long would be hilarious

Ronin?

Ronin was exiled since he had the brain to combine both forms together

new player here, is this one of those autistic game where you actually have to memorize every action in order to play correctly ? i'm just doing whatever feels right so far and i'm doing ok

i wish there was a maskless version of the new effects. I like the colors

If you decided to want learn, then looking at movesets and testing what works is beneficial to you. If you play duel, you’ll see why this game is hated by /v/ (they shilled it as a deep 3D fighting game). They couldn’t accept that 4v was the more fun and open ended mode since duel is just whoever attacks first loses

Maybe the devs can enable the color or masks as options. Hopefully they add them on revenge

>Disagree, warden's zone is much longer range than orochi's and it'd be straight up busted if it wasn't unsafe
It's the same range and damage as PK's zone.
>b-but PK has a shorter sword
She launches forward like a missile when using her zone because Assassins are anime, Warden's zone range is nothing special and isn't nearly enough of a reason to warrant making his zone the ONLY ONE IN THE GAME that's unusable on PC.

I mean, you can clear some soldiers with it :)

I CANT STOP BOBBING AROUND TO THE SPOOKY MUSIC

PK's zone range is also a problem, she flies forward and catches backdashes with it

Warden's zone range is a great strength of the move, even when it's blocked, your opponent is sometimes too far away to GB you, but PK/Orochi zone range is a bit stupid for an assassin that has already high light attack damage/speed

Have you tried? Warden recoils a whole foot backwards when using his zone into minions, so he'll clip 2-3 soldiers at most.

Then Highlander swoops in with his sword dealing constant contact damage like a lightsaber, spinning thrice to kill most of the wave in one zone.

Sure, HL's zone is unusable in a 1v1 outside of GB followup, but Warden's zone is bad both against players (on PC, I know consolefriends can't even block standard-speed light attacks) and against soldiers.

Yes, I'm salty. Highlander might be trash tier but it just feels dumb to have the DLC hero be ten times better at clearing minions despite using almost the same weapon.

If Warden's zone is unsafe on block, make all 500ms moves unsafe on block for consistency.
Having one standard move be uniquely unsafe unlike those of 19 other heroes is retarded design. Imagine being a new player and trying out various different heroes, and wondering why only one hero in particular can't counter GBs sometimes. It makes the game feel broken because there's no visual feedback for Warden's zone being somehow uniquely bad in that way.

Just got eliminated in a tournament after my opponent disconnected in the last round.

fucking wonderful

>playing duels
>playing tourney mode

found your problem.

Zones don't have to come from your guard direction, which is only really an advantage on Warden since the Assassins have hidden guards

PK zone needs to be punishable if blocked due to the insane speed

Orochi zone can mostly stay as is, just make it bounce off blocks so that he loses advantage

Berserker zone is full retard, 30 dmg 500ms attacks that are totally safe are ridiculous

All the assassin zones need huge range nerfs as well, I've backdashed and Orochi zone still catches me afterwards

(On Xbox) I know the feeling. I was pretty much done with it, all I had was highlanders ornament left. Then the faggot PK quits in the last match after the first round. I parried his lights as shinobi and got the sickle rain, then I faced a bot for the next two rounds. Except in round 3, game ends and gives me the following message.
>match invalidated by server
>you’ve been eliminated from the finals!
>”better luck next time”

Sooo to get all the tourney ornaments one has to intentionally lose as soon he gets ranked in bronze?

In order to reach bronze. You have to flunk all of your rank match placements. You’ll be put in gold 2 or 3. From there you have to keep losing until you reach Silver or bronze. Once there, you’ll meet the lowest of the low players who can’t do shit. From there on, just rape the tourney (you’ll still be low ranked, just make sure to lose some placement matches before semi) about 16 times for 1st place. Should take you a week if your working, if not then at least 4 to 3 days

Yeah, I got an easy 4 ornaments until my placements were finished, then no tournaments ever since getting put in plat 2

I got one tournament since then, but it froze at the finals and I had to leave

Ronin's intro trailer soon.
>While you were busy with your pathetic infighting, I studied the blade
>You exiled me
>And now you come to me for help?

These convenient pauses during action-packed sequences really show off the fancy visual effects.

>unlocked all event things for law
Finally fucking done

post yfw Ronin is actually a sloppy brawler swordfighter who uses a foreign blackpowder ranged feat

I still really want either his Plume or tourney ornament, odds of getting either are pretty low

I feel dumb for buying Cent's, he already gets a good plume from the Questing Knight outfit

Allright, thanks guys. I already worried to fall into the platinum oblivion by simply playing the mode it was supposed to.

So the heroes fit for competitive 4v4 are

>Nobushi
>Raider
>PK
>Glad
>Warlord
>LB

Anyone else? Shug is useful but his awful running speed is a dealbreaker when it comes to coordinated teamfights I guess

>odds
You can't get the halloween plume as a drop, the drop ornament is the claw-holding-skull for everyone. The halloween plume for LB is steel only.

Warden is good since target swapping fully charged shoulderbash is great in group fights

I meant that I don't think I'll spend 15k on an outfit just for an ornament when I really want Warden's Hellfire effects, although the execution effects are pretty good

>Want to try HL again
>feels fun in dominion
>Go negative every game

nope, that's it.
nope

Think about it this way. Warden's Hellfire is not going anywhere, meanwhile Conq's halloween ornament is going to go up in price to 20k in the future. You can get both over time anyway, but it makes sense to get the seasonal one first.

that's true I guess

The burning blue bodies after an execute are cool too

Who does this balding fag think he is

Post resynchronization kino

is Zerker zone really 30 dmg? is that counting the last hit or all of them? I know if you get hit by it you can block the last one, is the last one the highest damaging part?

#1 Digital Athlete

...

THE NUMERO UNO DIGITALO ATHELETO

it's actually like 32 i think, and no you can't block any of them if you get hit.

if you don't block the first hit, all the hits land for 30 dmg, idk what the chip damage is

they changed it sometime to be like that and it's super retarded

>I know if you get hit by it you can block the last one
Not anymore kiddo

>He doesn't have enough male hormones to go bald
Talk about being a betacuck

>pk getting killed faster than her own lights
Nice

I think it's fine, easily punishable by parry if you block it, high damage trade off.
Wardens is still fucked unless you use it at max range to make them whiff the gb punish.

winner of the upcoming tourney

>I think it's fine
Nigger it's a 500ms (400 due to time snap shenanigans) attack that kills you on your regeneration bar of health even without gear, in what universe is this fine
Even Warlord's 25 damage zone is 600ms

I've pretty much stopped using Warden zones against any player with double digits of reputation on their character. It's just a "please GB me" button on PC.
I almost regret not owning a Bloodborne Machine or XBone.

Conq is okay for holding down points long enough for reinforcements to get there.

yeah, but parry is already busted in this game

a 500ms attack that does 32 damage, completely surrounds the character, does multiple hits, and is safe on block is really stupid

Is it just me or is it impossible to dodge Warden's shoulderbash after a Crushing Counterstrike? That makes it do 64 damage, christ

Oops, wrong webm.
Have a coked up Centurion deliberately not taking the free kill against me for unknown reasons.
It's not just you. Time snap removal made landing a CC confirm a SB. This was absolutely not the case before the time snap patch.
Other moves affected are the abovementioned Berserker zone attack which doesn't let you block the last hit if you eat the first hit anymore, and Conqueror's forward shield charge which now confirms a heavy, not just a light.

Im pretty sure the Sb is guranteed after counter.

so does every zone in dominion, stop playing worst mode. Hold you'r gaurd lest if you can't react to a 500ms attack
>muh 400ms lights
nibber your either on console or playing with 3rd worlders, which I guess is what every zerk player is.
oh but warlords and nobus zone is fine becuase it's 100ms slower? despite being able to hit everyone around you making it un parryable for them.
except it isn't safe on block, it's easy af to parry if you block it, which gives you a light parry punish.
ya I only use it at max range or on stairs since it causes them to whiff the gb.

>so does every zone in dominion, stop playing worst mode
Learn to read, mongoloid. Zerker zone is a confirmed kill on 1 bar even in gearless modes like Duel. It's the only zone in its speed class that does this.

yes, and every zone, including PK zone does this in dominion, so like I said , stop playing worst mode. and keep your guard left for that sweet EZ light parry punish if he does throw it like a retard in duels. If flicker was still a thing I would agree with you.

>yes, and every zone, including PK zone does this in dominion, so like I said , stop playing worst mode.
What African country are you from that you're this illiterate? Read the fucking posts you're replying to. You're the only one bringing up Dominion for unknown reasons.

no, you can't parry zerker zone anymore on block, the entire thing just puts you in blockstun

PK zone is 20, so someone would have to have +25% attack to do this, which isn't actually possible as the max possible is about +23-24% right now

Parrying zones doesn't give you a light parry punish, are you stupid?

I think he means "worst mode" is Duel mode, not Dominion.

ya, your saying that his zone kills at regen health in dules, but duels are irrelevant, thus don't matter since every 20 damage zone can do 25 damage in dom with gear.
you can parry the last hit if you block it actually, are you new? Zerks zone gives a light parry punish on parry. all 20 damage zones do over 25 damage with gear.

>no, you can't parry zerker zone anymore on block, the entire thing just puts you in blockstun
You absolutely can, even after timesnap removal; I don't have a webm on hand right now but I might record one with a friend later if he has the time.
>Parrying zones doesn't give you a light parry punish, are you stupid?
Parrying PK's zone does, I legitimately can't remember if Berserker's does too. Zone attack mechanics are in no way consistent because Ubisoft loves their spaghetti code.

Alright, I take back what I said

The rules for this game are so fucking all over the place

>all 20 damage zones do over 25 damage with gear
[citation needed]
Full attack gear doesn't give you 25% damage bonus.
