basic auto attack stunlocking when using poleaxe skills...

[Kanjejou]

lately every of my poleaxe skills get interupted by basic autoattacks from spear and guan dao... is tha t normal?
its pretty annoing because it mean i have to use skill in their back or be unable to do anything in any 1vs1 situation if i dont use rough justice to engage...
i ask because i dont get this problem with long sword and other melee weapons skills.

it also make poleaxe useless most of the time

I notice is happening too. I think its just how pole axe is right now, not much you can do other than use rough justice to initiate.

Poleaxe is a weapon of pacing in 1v1. Basically, you always want to initiate with a CC, then auto-attack, then chain CC.

For instance, I'll often block the first incoming hit, then immediately pushback, 2 basic attacks while they're on the ground, then use Billhook to pull them and knock them down again, 2 basic attacks then RJ them the next moment they get up and they're dead.

The third skill can speed this up, you can use grim harvest for stun recovery and inflict another CC, or you can use Bec de Corbin instead of basic attacks during one a CC period. Personally I use it after Billhook and then one step forward to be right on top of them, the enemy will get up after the second hit, but if you're close enough and predict where they will roll away to, you can often hit them with the third hit which inflicts a massive stagger, they'll dodge roll a second time away (and be out of stam) and that's when you get an easy RJ.

My main advice is learn to block and dodge incoming attacks if you whiff a CC, and learn to block before engaging.

the problem is that when i pushback grim harvest or any skill byt he way, i get auto stunned by the basic attack of the ennemy my arrmor frame being destroyed and then getting hit before the animation finish...


so its not a problem of knowing the combo, even if its nice of you to write down the classic poleaxe combos, its more like i can' t even land a single hit if anyone look in my direction he just have to spam left click and im defenseless... all i can do is block and hope for an opening if i dont get punished by a guard breaking skill that will throw or drop me 2-3 sec and thus i can't roll nor move an inch and get comboed.

It wasn't a problem before, i was getting kicked in the teeth but i could fight back, so i don't know what changed with poleaxe... but i just switched to long sword spear or any other melee most of the time, at least i can attack back and not get stunlocked infinitely by basic attack and get my armor frame ignored/broken by basic attacks and thus have my skill being useless...

After not playing for a few months here are some complaints aside from no wizards, sorceresses, dragons or elves and the lack of a fantasy theme in favour of a boring fiction. Keeping in mind the game design is excellent and its very well done aside from the guild focus to the exclusion of much of the games content from 90% of players who are not guild players.

Muskets insta kill still but javelins no one ever used got nerfed/disabled. What? This makes me wonder, really wonder.

Lag isnt to bad but it can be bad and one match there was like 2 second lag for a while. Not to bad only one so bad out of quite a few, but lag may be the source of many complaints.

Skills/stuns being ignored by other players, while their skills/stuns are working may be because of this lag or lag swicthing hacks of some sort. Still its better than fighting aim bots in other games. One of the reasons i recommend this online game so highly.

Damage is totally broken. I have all epic gear and epic weapon and i do next to no damage 90% of the time yet others are hitting me for 90% damage in a single hit sometimes, and insta kills do happen also.

I would say the matches in this game are hacked all to hell because damage is so completely and entirely broken almost every match, but again its still better than fighting aim bots.

The trolling in matches and match fixing isnt to bad over all and i would even say the situation is good, but stat fixing is off the charts, this is related to damage being broken though.



Almost forgot, all the updates are really great. Really. Everything has improved, but again ruined by the boring fiction and lack of personal castle in favour of castles owned by someone else(guilds), which is why i almost forgot.

Sorry if this reply leans towards negative but thats the way i see it.


I still recommend Conquerors Blade because the game design is almost really good and gameplay is almost amazing if damage wasnt broken, and lack of aim bots ruining everything. The quality is very high as well.


Thats a really accurate look at CB as it stands.

Well it is because lag may be the reason for the topic title, which got me started.

As for any of my other replies, i am just replying after all. :) Often to alot spam to boot. :)
