Does CounterStrike Work with Hammer?

[Sono]

As in using upswing or mighty charge to hyperarmor through it. Though Im seeing these attacks are technically considered super armor which im not sure will proc with the skill.

try it in training room... if the skill works it will show on the right

There is no hyper or super armour for hammer. You can Offset Attack by doing either the spinning upswing finisher on the spin attack, or by doing the standard top-face button combo. The upswing from that combo can be delayed by holding down the top-face button to land it as an Offset, which will cancel the monster's incoming attack if you time it right.

However, I did hear from somewhere that monsters stop being affected by Offsets after a few successes. Dunno how true that is.

for a second there I thought you meant playing Counterstrike the videogame as a hammer main lol. Then I was like damn MH PVP would go hard.

Right now CounterStrike will works when you take any damages, doesnt need to knocked you back, for your example, if you have HyperArmor on it can still active.

There's a cd for offset attacks to work. Not a immunity like how mons become immune to traps or flashes.

well thats what i meant, the upswing offset, a site listed the mighty charge as having super armor but its possible thats bogus. I use the offset a fair bit i just havent used counterstrike yet, i dunno if that particular offset counts as hyperarmor, its distinguished as super armor. apparently.

that doesnt seem to be true, its only activating for him when hes hyper armoring through a big attack, not an attack u can brush off. As such I thought the same would apply to hammer which it seems to for offset but i guess for the mighty charge it doesnt.

back in the training room and doing testing, sushi is right there is no hyper armor for hammer whatsoever, and landing the offset on a big attack does not give me the proc. Which is weird, in the linked video, the guy offsets rey dau with hammer, and it procs. I must be doing something wrong or have a skill on thats stopping that. I even tried against a monster to make sure it wasnt the dummy that was special about that.

I’m fairly certain offset is a status just like power clash and mounting. It would be weird if wounds, para, sleep, blast, flayer, elemental conversion, poison, power clashes, and mounting all worked the same way but offset doesn’t.

It seems like offset is guaranteed on the first one. Then the third, then the 6th and so on.

You can get hit while offsetting especially when offsets don’t trigger the trip and if that happens you get hyper armor. Idk if that has anything to do with it.

oh okay, that might explain that then, maybe its against attacks with lingering or long lasting hitboxes, so thats realistically only going to happen against the harder monsters.

Greatsword offset attack procks counterstrike, I tested it out on dumby and on monsters. So it might for hammer, maybe.
