Okay, but seriously, I'm wondering if this means some future hero skins will have new voiceline sets. Also, kind of a shame Altair and Conner are so often forgotten.

Well, if I were to guess, it might be because the voicelines and animation tweaks for this Ezio PK skin fill out the data tied to a hypothetical 'male PK'. So basically they couldn't do this for any hero who already is gender unlocked because it'd override that gender's voicelines. So, might be possible we can get kyoshin, warmonger, etc. heroskins that have unique voicelines and such.

Though this also would potentially lock any future skins into the normal gender and default voicelines.

i bought him and don't understand what i'm doing. I get into offensive stance but then people just instantly hit me out of it with a light before I can do anything. Am I supposed to only ever go into it when I have frame advantage off a hit in defense stance?
>>
>>1268901
Unironically go spend some time in the Highlander training tutorial

he was the most complicated and obtuse character in the game BEFORE his rework and now he's even more complex

OS has 400 ms lights in all directions with short recoveries which can be used to pepper opponents before thriwing in a kick (now feintable) or a heavy
you can also get some crazy range with the new forward dodge caber to hard read opponents who don't expect it
also the OS heavy hitboxes are massive and can be used as spacing tools to clip people who think they're far enough away

also the new hard feint fast flow is diirrrty because of the new dodge attacks
>hard feint a neutral heavy
>can immediately either do a regular defensive dodge attack which hits the opposite side of the dodge attack
>or instantly fast flow into the offensive dodge attack which hits on the side of the dodge
Highlander is pseudo Zhanhu now

I did see that in some video and was trying it out. But I guess I'm not fast enough. I'm not flashing red but people are still parrying it.

I'm also having an immense amount of trouble with orochi. I usually play shaloin and trying to feint the kick to parry the blue Dodge attack feels so incredibly tight for the input. Like I don't get why shaolin and HL have different leniency. If I hard feint ki stance I can let go of my heavy and nothing happens but if I do the same on high lander he throws a defensive heavy after the feint. I am only now figuring out that I basically hard feint and let go of heavy attack at the same time and it's fucking me up.

if you were seriously having trouble against Highlander before his rework then that means you are just bad at the game
the only players capable of being "disgusting" with Highlander were those who could consistently parry lights on reaction because that was Highlander's singular strength

tldr: you are a shitter
>>
>>1273488
>does his rework still suck?
what the fuck?
what do you mean STILL?
as if his rework ever sucked
he was an oppressive unpunishable S-tier bastard when his rework came out and only after a few minor tweaks and nerfs did he come down to A-tier where all heroes belong
>how do I jorm
- hyperarmor zone chain
- feint your in-chain bash and either GB or parry dodge attempts
- open people up with his neutral bash
- feint your unblockable heavy and punish people
- abuse displacement heavies for free wallsplats
basically feint your shit
just to be clear because I get the feeling you're pretty dense
you are not supposed to feint moves EVERY time
they're called MIX-UPS for a reason
>>
>>1273357
heavy hit reaction delays moves from you (including the heavy input necessary to parry)
his zone puts you in a heavy hit reaction, which is what makes it a viable opener

I fucking hate it, but I do understand it

Does anyone know how fast the new highlander foward dodge caber is? You can do it after a light parry but how much time is that as well? 900 ms? The information hub says it takes 600 ms to do a caber toss and that the input window is 300-500. Does that mean it's exactly 900 if you buffer the input and that's why it works on light parries?

Skill issue, unironically.
>>
>>1284261
The first line is you dodging her light attack. Not her using a dodge attack. I'm annoyed that because varangian has crushing counters on both her light opener and finisher. Plus full guard recovery cancels she can just press buttons and dodging her is useless unless you've got a Dodge bash or make two reads in a row.

>>
>>1285490
I know. I fucking hate all of them with their recovery cancels except for zhanhu because his is arbitrarily slower than the others. Varg also gets crushing counters on both her lights and they're both enhanced. It combined with her recovery cancel just allows her to play like a retard and get away with it.

Yeah could you imagine not being able to punish a character because they have a recovery cancel? What kind of idiot would design not one character but multiple that do just that?
>>
>>1287217
Unlike every other dodge cancel character, you literally could not punish a Zhanhu unless he fucked up even in a 1v1 situation because he was faster than you, his superior block dodge attacks meant that he could counter everything including GB and everything he threw was safe
>>
>>1287225
Is this not the case for dodge cancel characters right now? When you say zhanhu was faster do you mean he was faster than the standardization from the CCU?
>>
Reminder if you used:
>Orochi
>Zerk
>Wu Lin
>Outlanders
Or any other DLC hero.
You did not win, your character did.
>>
>>1287262
Zhanhu's dodge attack timings meant he could CC or dodge any attack on reaction and because they were basically lights with i-frames Zhanhu was frame advantages and super safe while using them, he could also do it off of the forward dodge bash too making him nigh untouchable. Current dodge cancels require you to have to make a prediction most of the time and can be stuffed with light attacks, they also aren't as safe due to all either being light punish parries or punishable with a guard break
>>
>>1287288
>Zhanhu's dodge attack timings meant he could CC or dodge any attack on reaction and because they were basically lights with i-frames

Is this not the case for every other dodge cancel character since most have deflects like orochi, afeera, zerk, etc.
>>
>>1287295
Afeera can't CC on dodge and can be GB...or at least she could be but she has a bug where she displaces you LOL

Orochi and Zerk have deflects but deflect timing is different to dodge timing and can be baited and parried

Pirate's all lead into dodge heavies but Forward dodge heavy is GBable on light finisher and side dodge heavies are light parry punishes,

I like that every character in the game can be "optimized" with their available perks and feats for a given role.
Of course some obviously have more synergy and overall potential than others.

Shugoki will fuck me up a lot right before he dies because I always forget he can have both Hard To Kill and Last Stand at the same time. On top of that he also probably has Bastion. In effect he has a whole lot more health than you think he does, and that's without landing a Demon's Embrace. He fills out the role of "angry spirit guarding this shrine" very nicely.

Varangian getting Speed Revive + Protected Revive + Rising Dawn is frankly kind of obnoxious. You can't leave a dead body alone when she's around because she'll instantly bring back the teammate with more than their usual max health (including the shield).
>>
>>1290361
Varangian is extremely obnoxious for everyone. The nature of her being a recovery cancel fullblock character with 50/50's already makes her obnoxious to fight 1 on 1. But her feats are like the other side of the horseshoe of warmonger's. Very, VERY strong for dominion/breach that already incentivizes her usual playstyle. Like it's bad enough that fullblock characters can babysit in ganks so your opponents get fucked for ever trying to attack, but varangian will heal her whole team and give them a damage buff and give herself a defense buff on no cooldown every time she babysits.

OH AND HOW COULD I FORGET
Orochi also has an execution that gives 50 HP that kills in 1.3 seconds
so it's actually very easy to land this execution in the middle of a team fight
and let's tally up all the ways we can make this nastier
>20 extra HP from Bounty Hunter
>25 extra HP from Executioner's Respite
>10 extra HP from Devourer
so Orochi will often get back 105 health in the middle of a fight
1300 ms kill time
for comparison, the fastest killing Shared execution that gives 50 HP is That's Cannon and it only kills in 2200 ms
there are 20 HP executions that take longer to kill

>Kensei's "Lose Something?" kills in 1300 ms and grants 50 HP
>Zhanhu's "Graceful Expedient" kills in 1300 ms and grants 50 HP
Kensei, Cent, and Zhanhu can run Devourer so it works even better for them

Orochi is an odd one since if you meet a good one its gg but I have been playing since the fucking beta and I have learned to fight orochis. Beserker is odd since I left for a while right before Warmonger but I always kinda knew zerker was good with how the hyperarmor was easily abusable and now they are unstoppable

I am petty because id even list Warlord or Lawbringer in that list but I barely fight them now and see they are lacking. I never liked Shugoki I hate his design, I hate his gameplay, and just his everything and im a samurai guy. I also dont like a lot of the knights and hate how Centurion and Gladiator is locked to them.

Generally remedy is superior yes. If stack them though its better. If you combine that with bounty hunter/executioners respite feat and a quick 50 health execution. You can heal to almost full health in an instant. Great for antiganking and executing an enemy under revenge. The massive health swing can outright save you, or generally allow you to kill the remaining enemy and win 1v2s.

If I'm trying to get 50 HP in a fight, I'm expecting to get hit before it finishes, but if I can just get the 50 it will still make up for any attack they hit me with
whatever gets you the health faster
if you opt for the shorter duration but longer kill it raises the chances of getting hit before you get to heal off the exec

I stopped playing shortly after Warmong came out, around the time the core combat update was being tested.

How bad is it nowadays?
>>

Heroes all starting to feel the same is still a major complaint but there are still differences between the characters. Biggest problem is the new characters feel recycled.

Still a thing but they did start making character exclusive executions again.

The game is actually rather popular considering it's age. Your experience may differ but I at worst only face the same people twice if it happens once per play session.

She's the most auto pilot hero for 4v4s they have designed so far. I thought Medjay was already as braindead as they could make a hero after Hitokiri.
>>
Black Prior being both a ganking god and anti gank is so fucking annoying. Just faced a team that knew not how to feed revenge of a warden, Black Prior, and Vangarian actually cancer the newer heroes really piss me off.

Black Prior is so fucking annoying, Warmonger easy mode reused assetville, Gryphon the same crap. I really do think all kniggers are the worst.

let this sink in
BP has four (4) bashes
if you can't do well as BP you're just bad at the game

>>1300192
Holy shit this. People keep telling me that forward dodge caber IS the roll catch. That shit never ever works unless there like so early in the animation for rolling that they're still standing on their feet.
>>
>>1300194
BP can do a lot of things that aren't fair. Not saying I like anything about Hito's kit, but BP can light crushing counter anything red and if hito keeps charging into the unblockable he can flip it too.

slightly rework Gryphon and give him a stance
>activated the same way as Highlander's stance (holding heavy from neutral or after an attack)
>takes a stationary stance like Jiang Jun and Nobushi
>entering the stance has i-frames
>Grphon cannot dodge or block while in this stance
and then from the stance you have 3 moves available
>light attacking will perform a sweeping enhanced undodgeable zone attack (just steal Lawbringer's zone animation)
>releasing heavy attack will perform an unblockable overhead chop, possibly with hyperarmor (also steal from Lawbringer)
>pressing guardbreak will perform a kick
the kick should be fast and only guarantee a light attack, but then people will begin dodging it on read when they see Gryphon enter his stance so he can punish with his undodgeable zone

this would never happen
but I think it'd be neat

nerffffff fucking Shaolinnnnn
why does everything he does get to be enhanced
why is the sweep feintable while also being guardbreak invulnerable because he get a guaranteed follow-up feintable top heavy
FUCK YOUUUUUUU
>>
>>1300981
>why does everything he does get to be enhanced

Unless he's already in ki stance only his top light is enhanced. Use this to prepare a parry against shaolins.

>why is the sweep feintable while also being guardbreak invulnerable because he get a guaranteed follow-up feintable top heavy

This is true of any character who can chain on whiff of which there are many. The method of dealing with it is the same. Use a dodge attack. If you are playing warden my condolences.

>>
>>1302082
There's basically two versions of the game being played based on character and game mode. Characters like cent, warden, raider are NOT playing the same game as characters like orochi or Shinobi.

Then there's game modes, duels and everything else. Most people are still chasing the fantasy of being in a big battle but being an ubermensch hero amongst peons. So that's the main game mode.

just light attack him
if you're allowing him to get out of neutral then you deserve your loss
>zone can be ignored because it's slow and blockable
>celtic curse is easy to GB and easy to parry
>neutral heavies only have 100 ms of HA and can be ignored
>because of the guard delay, the feint FF can just be interrupted by light attacking the Highlander before he gets to do anything
you're fighting a character with absolutely zero viable opening moves
just wait for them to try to neutral light and then just parry them
the only thing making you lose against Highlander is greedy GB and parry attempts
>Kick is GB invulnerable
yeah?
so is Shaolin, Jorm, Nobushi, and Tiandi
just dodge attack it
>BUT HE CAN FEINT AND PARRY
waaaaah I can't option select Highlander's entire kit with dodge attacks anymore ;_; ;_;
:^(....
>>
Why did they give dodge attacks to everyone, let alone Vort?
I have 50 levels on BP and not once did I think he needed dodge attacks, did the meta change that much?
>>
>>1302807
Because some characters had integral moves that couldn't / shouldn't be punishable with a GB, but the timing wouldn't allow a dodge then neutral light

BP was already perfect fine and still didn't need a dodge attack, let alone a dodge light. His flip is all he needs.
Like when I go to attack a BP he can respond in so many ways
>crushing counter
>flip
>parry
>dodge attack
>reflexively bash into it (if it's a slow attack)
at this point the only thing he can't do is deflect

God I hate fighting bp. Everytime I think I have frame advantage I just know he can solve any problem with flip. Every single button you press against him you have to worry about flip and the fight is never in your favor.
>>
how would YOU give Highlander an opener?
enhanced neutral light(s) ?
standardize Offensive Stance guard switch delay?
>all guard switches in the game are 100ms, except for Highlander's offensive stance which is 300ms
tune Celtic Curse so it's more of an opening move, and less of a stupid hyperarmor retard trading move?
>right side cancel is still 600ms and frequently gets parried
>left side is still 700ms and will get parried 100% of the time
come on
give him some way to get out of neutral
>>
>>1303152
Standardize the guard switch in OS for sure, also fix the random retarded bugs like swapping guards during a light or a dodge and trying to do a kick instead does a very delayed guardbreak.

But the best idea I saw for an opener was to give him a bash in defensive stance, either from forward dodge or neutral, that doesn't guarantee anything BUT does fast flow into OS and gives him enough frame advantage to get his actual chain pressure going.
>>
>>1303190
I like that one, but devs are way too retarded and inside-the-box to do something wild like having a bash that isn't just a neutral damage confirming tool

If the patch at the start of next season doesn't have
>fixes for Highlander + an opening tool
>the gank / revenge rework
then I'll just be taking a break
the Highlander rework was fresh and really fun, but in my ELO most people have realized I don't have an opening move and can freely gank me

ALSO
would it be overpowered to give Highlander the Warden treatment for moves confirmed by landing his bashes and grabs?
>if you land a Caber Toss the following heavy attack will have hyperarmor
>if you land a Kick the following heavy will have hyperarmor
it MUST land on an opponent to get hyperarmor
this wouldn't change Highlander's performance in duels, but it would make him so much more capable as anti-ganker, an area where he generally suffers as a result of his slow moves and lack of neutral pressure
>>
>>1303279
>would it be overpowered to give Highlander the Warden treatment for moves confirmed by landing his bashes and grabs?

I would definitely enjoy that. Even in revenge people can hit you out of caber toss follow ups which really fucking sucks.

>but devs are way too retarded and inside-the-box to do something wild like having a bash that isn't just a neutral damage confirming tool

Isn't that exactly what glad's dodge bashes are?
>>
>>1303288
>isn't that exactly what Glad's dodge bashes are
oh true
a move that forces a mixup on the opponent, but doesn't actually guarantee something
maybe there is hope
>>
>>1303328
Honestly just fix the bugs/oversights like his hyper armor being 700ms instead of 500 and give him glad's dodge bashes.
>>
we need a CCU level rework of all feats in the game
ideally every character is restricted to a single set of fully unique feats, that way they can be individually balanced

also the old perk system
>opponent is capable of gaining revenge in a 1v1
aaaaaaaaaaaaaa
>>
>>1304435
Yes. It was more fun than current For Honor.
>>
>>1303975
You lose a lot of build variety if you restrict everyone to a unique set of feats. I love min/maxing feat and perk combos. They do need reworking and some outright removed (last laugh, oathbreaker, 50 damage projectiles) Or unlock all feats that arent unique, or projectiles, for all heroes and just see what happens. There is a lot of potential for creative builds. Once the meta emerges, start tuning those feat combos

How old is "old"? I'm pretty sure there was a golden age of FH sometime after the CCU, but before the lobotomite devs had the idea for every new character to just be a 2-hit chain bash feinter.

What is the point of Gryphon? No one cares about this character, it doesn't fit in the lore after the shit narrative with warmonger. His moveset is braindead and so are his feats. He is one of the most worthless DLC heroes.

They needed to release a character for the $$$ but didn't have one prepared due to COVID so they just blended a bunch of pre-existing assets together to make it.

Stay on point and let them run unless you have a feintable forward dodge attack.

>>1309398
I'm playing highlander. Isn't his forward dodge attack too slow even if I feint it over and over?
>>
>>1309436
Depends on how far away you are when they start running, the reason you feint is because you want to bait out a roll.
>>
>>1309448
They're not rolling. They're already like 10-15 feet away and just start booking it at low life.
>>
>>1309436
Hahahahaha I'm sorry man
one of Highlander's greatest weaknesses is that the rest of the cast (including Shugoki) is capable of running away from you without consequence
this is why you run Rush as your T1 feat
>>
>>1309556
Rush? Really? That's my best option? The situation boils my blood but I can't imagine giving up double stamina regen.
>>
>>1309577
yep
I've got over 1000h in Highlander and this is just the reality
you cannot chase anyone
you cannot get away from anyone
the sprint attack is the most unreliable piece of dog shit that will never "catch" anyone you're chasing
if you reaaaally want to avoid this problem then just babysit a point for most of the match
that way if people run away they're at least fucking themselves over with all that wasted time

I went against an afeera who played 100% reactively and annoyed the ever living shit out of me and on the next match they were on my team so I was going to follow them around to feed enemies revenge.

>quickly target swap to one of them and GB them out of the full block
>BUT DON'T PUNISH

stuff like that
also a similar thing to do is with Highlander's kick
>land a kick on someone ganking you
>immediately feint and parry the other ganker trying to save his buddy
9/10 the other ganker will try to interrupt you after you land a kick
expect that
punish that
AND STILL DON'T GET REVENGE BECAUSE THIS GAME FUCKING SUCKS ASS

Why can jorm do a feintable bash that you can't get a gb in a read, confirms a pin, a heavy and puts him at frame advantage on top of giving him a shield that triggers the revenge shield bug?
