Riposte nerf or bug?

With a big ass axe and a big axe hammer? And run like crazy?

If you know anything about pvp you would know the reason it isnt op is because a lot of the abilities and a light attack can hit it then dodge out of the stun

Oh no a big giant Indiana Jones boulder is coming at me! Oh thank god I have my Riposte with me.

Oh uau a skiny dude with a giant axe and a giant hammer running towards me and jumping? Dude must be superman, but no, game so realistic, superman doesnt exist in it.

lol … so true…

Would be nice if devs could confirm what this is, it feels awful on the PTR.

The weapon is basically useless without it :smiley:

I didn’t see this happen at all when I was on the PTR, but I was very specifically testing winter event stuff and didn’t do any PVP. Also I wasn’t boosted to 60, just 16.
For clarity: Didn’t experience this bug in PVE scenarios.
If it only happens in PVP I would assume that was too specific for a bug.

A giant 300 lb man in 100 lbs of armor doing full body leaps with a giant hammer that also would probably weigh 30+ lbs seems perfectly logical.

The link they mention is this post i made?

“you cant “parry” a giant 300 lbs man in full plate jumping and landing on you with a slam attack… The rapier wont parry all that force… It makes zero sense. That’s like parrying a giant 300 lbs barbell being thrown at you with a bendy metal sword… its not going to work.”

Bro its a fantasy MMO. Its so far from real why would we make riposte realistic. Should Ice Storm immobilize heavy armor wearers completely because it builds up ice on your steel armor? Or you could take extra damage every time you get hit from fire staff because it would make your armor unbearably hot.

are you actually dropping the muh realism argument in an mmo…?

oh no :joy:

*edit guess you were quoting him i quoted the wrong person :joy:

These heavy armor dudes actually trying to justify breaking the rapier with realism, lmao

Hmm i wouldnt be so sure. Don’t think its a very realistic nerf lmao

Can we talk about how S&S, a tank weapon, takes damage while activating Defiance Stance while your precious Riposte nullifies all damage? Now that is hilarious.

I hope this is a feature and not a bug. You’ll be the one needing that right click.
