Swift Slash Ash of War

[Nihil]

Needs a nerf bad, this thing is OP in 1v1's. Just 0 way to stop it unless you spam AoE's and other various tactics that still don't stop you from losing half or more of your hp from one lightning fast Ash of War. Decrease the damage, make the person using it have more end recovery frames, easy fix. I'm just gonna alt-f4 out of every fight that someone starts using this in.

Yep saw that, it needs a nerf in damage at least. It's working as intended, just doing way too much.

Yep, you're ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ right i'm gonna quit if the person im fighting is gonna abuse some OP crap that is just not fun to fight against or deal with at all. Spellcasting isn't even as bad as some of the new unbalanced ashes of wars and some weapons. That's pretty bad.

I remember when people were defending Carian Retaliation being broken as hell, too. Good times. Saw this same lazy statement many a times then.

They also defended BHS even when there was video evidence of it making you literally immortal.

But yeah, the main outliers at the moment are:

Aow:
1.- Swift Slash
2.- Blind Spot
3.- Rolling Spark
4.- Golden Crux

Weapon:
Fire Knight Greatsword (the light attack is a true combo with itself)
Bloodfiend's Arm (the heavy attack even when uncharged is capable of insta bleed proc)

i missed that mid point int he quest. didnt get the aow. ;(
thankfully missing that confrontation didn't stop the quest progressing anyway.

blindspot on the backhand swords is cool. very evasive. like a 180degre bloodhound step with a backstab :P

the only two things I can think of to counter Swift Slash are either Vow of the Indomitable or Raptor of the Mists.

Definitely not the second one.

bloodfiend arm is fine imo. If you get hit by a heavy colossal attack you deserve a bleed proc anyway

You maybe right, since it only makes us jump and the swift slash hit box is pretty big. Maybe blood hound step will be the alternative, so when we see someone about to do swift slash just blood hound step away from them.

dont trade with a colossal? If someone's swinging a colossal at you just back up and fill them up with burred bolts or magic. Bleed infused greatsword crouch pokes do pretty much the same anyway

What if youre a colossal yourself?

We even have AoW strictly made to trading.

I give point downs to anyone that pulls out the backhand crutch blades when they start losing, or spam the busted ashes of war all fight and still lose.
