Bloody Slash and Hoarfrost stomp nerf is a complete and utter BS

[artesva]

I am 150+ hours in the game, and I had only 2 weapon arts there which were worth using - Hoarfrost stomp and Bloody Slash.

They look cool, they feel great and satisfying to use, they actually do decent damage.
Ot at least they DID, to be more precise. Now they are unplayable.

So now I have 0 (zero) interesting arts to use, and I have about 40 of those overall.
But others are just garbage.
Maybe I can BUFF myself a little bit of damage before a boss fight, wow, or have a BUTT JUMP - how exciting

But you buffed brain-dead sorcery, instead of caring for melee playstyle.

I have never played online and never will I, so why do I have to suffer from a boring gameplay from now on because of your griefers and ♥♥♥♥?
This is a solo game, and you took the fun out of it

Thanks From, finally changing my rewiew to ''not recommend''

UPD
I guess i have to add this, because obviously they provided internet access to mental institution patients, who spam brainless ''git gud'' here:
I have zero problems with the game's difficlty, it's one of the easiest games in the genre I ever played, with or withour weapon arts.
Cool arts just made long and frankly pretty dull game with countless reusable bosses and enemies fun to play,
And nerfs by itself are fine, but they killed the arts completely

Most fun is how people react to Frost Stomp, while it was nothing compared to a Bloody Slash or Katana Draw.
Sure, take Frost away, but making also Bloody Slah unusable - that's specificly fun.

And I lke how people talkig about ''there are a lot of cool arts', but are not naming even one of those, and I comletely understand why - there are not. because I have my collectionin front of me, and I tried all of those

You really could have got your point across without writing a novel. Here is an example of what this post could have looked like: "I am mad because I can't use broken things to cheese the whole game so now I am gonna give a negative review." That pretty much summed up what you said.

Others are not bad. You were just using broken ♥♥♥♥. It's as simple as that.

Oh no! Now you're incentivized to try out all of the other cool ashes of war. What a nightmare.

No clown points for you.

I hope when someone burns down your house, you'll say that ''im cool with that, I am just being invited to try a new lifestyle, no biggie', not going to express my frustration'

Perhaps you only liked them because they made the game trivial and were completely over tuned

This is nothing but an excuse, but I'll bite for now.

I'd argue, Phantom Slash, Thunderbolt, Sacred Blade, Sacred Ring of Light and Ice Spear are interesting ashes of war that provides you with readily available mid-range options for otherwise close quarter weapons.

Anyone got numbers on how much various things were nerfed? It would suck for instance if people upgraded their mimic tear to +10 only for it to be useless now.

That is exactly what is going on here. OP wanted to cheese the whole game.

[BlueSerafh]

Lol, sore loser came to my thread to cry about someone pointing out something.
Go suffer silently somewhere else, no one cares what you think

Ur the one who wrote an entire thread to cry about the nerf my guy.

Yes, and started thread to talk about it and it has already 3 pages in like 10 minutes.
So people care about the issue enough to enter and answer.

You ask why you have to suffer from boring gameplay yet use only 2 weapon arts.
Just because they got nerfed doesn’t mean you have to stop using them. Sounds like you don’t find the combat engaging or fun without 2 things so yeah, guess you’re screwed.
