Longsword nerf

[kiwi]

i feel like the counter window time is really small now, is it just me?

[SynC[+]]

Yes the window is smaller and u need some spirit meter to perform it now. On the flip side, u get a whole new iai stance to compensate

[Zurv]

yep. nerf'd.. but come on. it was a huge window before.

[MeowMixMax]

You can still improve the counter window with Evasion Mantle.

[Lunar]

What they're trying to tell you is to GIT GUD

[Laughing kookaburra]

yeah it's not just you it's harder to counter now

[Heehee]

On the bright side you get an even cooler parry move with the new LS although the window is even tighter.

which one ? the special sheath ?

[SlicedAndDiced]

smaller window but easier to pull off

[Vandals[UK]]

They have reduced the Foresight Slash Counter Time from 1 second to 0.6 seconds.

So yes, you need to be more skilful at it in order to pull it off.

Yes but if u have been doing alot of foresight slash, this reduced timing should not be a problem. The lai sword slash also have a counter window but unlike foresight slash, u still take a little dmg if u did it correctly but it allows u to carry on ur slashing combo ...

When u unsheathed the sword from lai position. The timing u have to "feel" it yourself. You can test it out with explosive barrel in training area.

Git Gud

[Acheron]

Gotta love all the idiots saying 'git gud'.

So you mean the move I spent hours learning to pull off right, as even with the window it's not exactly an easy skill to execute, is worthless and that I need to 'get gud' to re-learn it all over again? Screw you.

I hate the nerf, as someone who doesn't own Iceborne, it's even worse as I don't get ANY benefit. it's a nerf for the sake of it. Yay.
