BloodHound step is a mistake, change my mind
Why bother with literally any other ash of war when u can just spam the step almost for free?, like even quickstep, why bother having it there?

Because some people play for fun and not for ''omg this is the meta omega broken thing I have to use it''. You could make the same argument about weapons as well. Why use anything else other than rivers of blood.

To have a damaging Ash of War?

Like, its obvious? using Bloodhound means you sacrificed dmg for mobility.

Nah, if anything Anime is currently destroying Western media.

Not hard considering how Comics, Movies and TV Series are more concerned on checking boxes and trying to lecture the audience about how much they suck and have to do better.

I'm kind of wondering this myself, if I get absolutely stuck on a boss I can just slap this on any weapon and either kill the boss or learn the moveset at almost no risk. While quickstep feels kind of useless comparatively. I wish that they had made a super light load category where the player could naturally quickstep in place of the light roll.

As it is now its just kind of weird with how all these abilities compare to each other, especially since bloodhound step replaces the offensive power of a weapon for near invulnerability. I don't think bloodhound step would be a mistake if implemented properly its just easy mode right now.

To be fair im pretty sure western media is destroying itself. Its hard to sell a product when you make the products actively insult the consumer.

Bloodhound Step isn't a mistake at all as I see it. If it gets nerfed at all, I'd hope it would just increase stamina cost. Its basically like a car, you can move real fast through deep water movement debuff areas, and if you really like, you can move closer to a bloodborne character's pace than a dark souls one. Its another playstyle in PVE. In PVP, it might be a bit broken, but I think its either broken, or useless, and it'll be impossible to make it somewhere between those. My preference is it stays broken, others will prefer it be outright removed or made useless.

Yeah, they dont really need help, they are destroying themselves just fine.

Both are pretty garbage when you look at the majority of both sides. Animes have their own big problems from being cringe fanservice all the way to having bad animation, censoring, destroying the story completely by not following the manga etc.

How to fix Bloodhound step:
1. make it based on character weight, it only works like it is currently at light weight, and becomes similar to quickstep if medium or higher
2. add HP cost, similar to blood slash, the cost should increase the more you spam it, resets after 6 seconds without using the skill
3. lower range and iframes by 20%

Ah yes, the answer of "Make it useless", I see, which only furthers my point. If its gonna be the same as quickstep, it'll 100% of the time be replaced with something more useful. Thats the problem here, I already see everything being nerfed into the dirt until we have DS3 again, where everything is useless, and we are all ignoring the concept of ashes of war, and only pressing R1, R2, with the occasional L1 mixed in

That's way too much. The first idea is good and maybe the second but without the increase.

True, should cost way more FP in pvp
