@Delakron @Aenwyn @Zin_Ramu @Fenne

not that it matters. Just leave the stagger on flourish at least.

I would like to thank dummychicc whoever he/she is for helping with this material.

Agreed. Didn’t see this before I made a separate post and elaborated on it -

Revert Rapier Stagger Nerf

Without its staggers, flourish & finish is a useless ability and will make the rapier obsolete as an offensive weapon. FnF isn’t even typically used for its damage, but rather its utility and ability to interrupt melee attack animations. This allowed for aggressive combos to be set up with fleche and evade which gave rapier users a chance to compete point-blank against players holding stronger melee weapons (interrupting mages mindlessly holding flamethrower is another great feature). But witho…

You are welcome friend

Updated first post.

Where’s the blood enjoyer @Pointe

I think you will be concerned about these changes. Unless you don’t play rapier anymore.

Vacuum-sealed box thrown in the ocean mate.

It was already lame, they took it out back and finished it off

[Blahblah348]

Yup. Blood tree got whacked.

At least we can enjoy that 1 bleed stack from flurry before getting cced right after and killed.

[Blahblah348]

Bump

[Blahblah348]

And another one

@Zin_Ramu

In reviewing our decisions, I do think the removal of the stagger on all FnF was overly aggressive because it hurt the ability as a whole. We are reviewing this and will likely add the stagger back to first part (with a slight reduction in damage to that part) before S1 goes live.

we won

[Blahblah348]

Ayyyy

@Fenne

Rapier

• Flourish -
  • Added the stagger back into Flourish, and reduced damage of Flourish from 90% to 60%.
• Flurry -
  • Fixed an issue where the Bleed applied by rapier’s Flurry would trigger screen shake.

Flurry is still cheeks tho. So is Tondo.
