    Make overheadstrike parry-breaking

    As it is now MO1 is better than MO2, though. i.e. I have more chance in fighting a European player in MO1 than MO2. As it stands, I probably won't be able to play when fights become important. If I log in now (after Monday's patch) to MO2 in Euro timezone there will be 12+ people playing, in...

    Make overheadstrike parry-breaking

    I would prefer they find a way to correct de-sync and normalize or level out advantages from ping difference somehow before they begin making changes to anything else. If they don't, anything they add will just act as a band-aid and after enough band-aids they won't, or won't be able to, go back...

    Revan schools me.

    @Gannicus This is what it is like to fight you. This is the best your connection has been, I didn't record the fights where it was worse.

    Revan schools me.

    I guess I can't hear well enough to tell the difference. I don't think that I can block any faster at any rate. The sounds are inconsistent and inaccurate, as well.

    Haha, yeah, you can teach him a lot about connection problems.

    Revan schools me.

    I think this guy is European. It isn't too dissimilar from fighting you, except the range, and he doesn't jump and twist so much.

    Revan schools me.

    Fighting you is more or less like fighting a European player, at least as far as how you can parry all my hits and hit through my parries. My sensitivity is still high from trying to counter the old turn cap, I should try turning it back down. I was also using a jadeite sword to try and swing...

    Suggestion - Combat Speed

    Another related thing that I hope they are removing is the need to delay attacking after a parry. Right now if I get a parry I have to wait slightly or I only get a slow, weak swing.

    Suggestion - Combat Speed

    In addition to what you have said, actual movement (as in sprinting during a fight) isn't always the same speed, I'm not sure if it is a bug, or what. Also, from watching videos from other people's perspective it seems that not everyone swings at the same speed either. I see someone using the...

    Absolutely not!

    Blocking issues

    This is the same for me at 140 ping. Plus I very often get a hit sound when they parry me. Often they parry me before they move (which sometimes happens in MO1, too.) :(

    What I mean is that no matter what I, being from NA do, I get parried over and over like that.

    Combat Alpha Patch Notes 0.0.0.31

    @Bicorps In duels at least holding your swing too long doesn't really come into play as you will be parried every time if you fully charge a swing. (Don't know about team fights as there are never more than three or so players from NA on during the time I can play, even on patch day.)

    Combat Alpha Patch Notes 0.0.0.31

    Except if you are from NA and fighting anyone from east of you every fight is like that, with the added bonus that sometimes the person parries you without their animation moving on your screen or while they are charging a swing or even while swinging, and furthermore the sounds of combat are...

    General Guidance for SV and the Balance Team

    All those things were problems in pvp that had to be phased out or toned down. In each case they proved to be too good to where you either had to play that style or be at a disadvantage and each time when enough people switched to the OP weapon or move or playstyle those who didn't want to play...

    I forgot about the mounted combats.

    General Guidance for SV and the Balance Team

    They don't realize that turning is a reaction to a problem rather than the problem. The main problem is that parries are over powered.

    Combat observations

    I wonder if it would work to let some damage occur even through the parry? The (earned) reward for skill in blocking would be less, and the (un-earned) reward for good ping would also be less.

    General Guidance for SV and the Balance Team

    Feedback needs to be judged on it's own merit, true. The problems MO1 had that originated from listening to feedback were not usually from listening to top players though, but were from listening to those who wanted to succeed with little effort. People who wanted the game to be easier, and...
