#

big axe is objectively the best in half sword at separating limbs (exept scythe)

pearl ferry
#

longsword once you get to man at arms and they are like leg magnets they take them shits off like no one's business

mint zinc
#

i playtest i once got bored and got past the barricades by smashing my head on them multiple times

dapper trail
#

#

fuck ts

dapper trail
#

lol

mint zinc
#

who tf gave him that massive sword bro

plain bloom
#

you could always slow down time

mint zinc
#

i feel like that doesnt do much

#

it takes a ton of stamina to

#

and if u fall infront of commoner boss

#

its over

plain bloom
#

slowing down time is useful for baiting out the overhead

#

are you holding down shift by any chance

mint zinc
#

maybe

#

yes

plain bloom
#

if you are then you could time the overhead and go in when its down

warm cypress
#

Where is half sword multiplayer 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

late flower
# mint zinc it takes a ton of stamina to

do not swing until the other swings and you know you can counter it, and move your weapon slightly slower in slow mo than you would normal speed, that helps yoy follow through on swings in slow mo

plain bloom
#

its gonna be 80% randomly swing in every direction 20% HEMA

so idk

pseudo elk
#

dam idk why i kept crashing in abyss like as soon as one of the enemies hit the ground

#

i have an old laptop but this game must have some sort of memory leaks it shouldnt be this slow/buggy

mint zinc
#

well might be because of the laptop

#

i have a new good pc and ive never crashed

What are yalls FAVORITE tiers/weapons i want something else besides the plancon or greatsword..

exotic mulch
# soft osprey Try turning down/off blood

This. Had same issue: crashes, low fps (granted, my PC is pretty much a potato now), the usual. Turning off blood sucks, but it makes the game more playable. Hopefully, it will be better optimized to run better on weaker hardware (if not, oh well) by the time the full release comes out.

#

so i mentioned last night, i know how to disable Lumen and SSR to get huge performance gains

#

im just gonna post here, idk if a mod could see/pin it or w/e

#

1.) go to the config folder, should default to AppData\Local\HalfSwordUE5\Saved\Config\Windows

2.) open GameUserSettings.ini

3.) add the following to the bottom:

[/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.Lumen.Reflections.Allow=0
r.raytracing.ForceAllRayTracingEffects=0

4.) remember to save, and if it doesn't take set the ini to read-only

how much worse does the game look with that

hidden pendant
#

barely noticable tbh

#

games with heavy lighting systems for environmental work, like a lot of use of light/shadow/etc (like the new stalker) look a lot worse with lumen disabled

#

but HS takes place exclusively in a brightly lit arena

#

SSR is screen-space reflections and the shiny full plate armor will look less pretty but like... its not like youre suddenly playing a game from 2008 or something. its just not that shiny/reflective and doesnt have any real time reflections on it

You mean the axe guy

tawdry dune
# crude flower You mean the axe guy

I mean the worthless garbage part of the game where you have to start with a fucking knife and beat enemies that are always better equipped than you and miraculously not take a single fucking hit so you're ready to fight the baron

#

And God this makes me want to uninstall the game

crude flower
#

Oh you mean the abyss

#

Just don't die and you'll never go there

#

Easy peasy

tawdry dune
#

i mean the end of the gauntlet

#

Don't you get your own weapon when you fight in the higher tiers

#

That isn't a knife

guys am i the only one who thinks it would be fun if they added a battlepass with skins and backblings

tawdry dune

#

The knight tier?

tawdry dune
tired stream
crude flower
#

Well above the knight would be something we haven't unlocked yet unless you are the baron himself

#

In which case no knife

tawdry dune
#

of which is (if im not mistaken) the same you get as beggar in carnage (the bigger one)

rancid sluice
#

Does anyone have any tips for dealing with the commoner (tier 3) boss? It seems like no matter what I do I have to just get lucky. If I try to dodge, I get hit on the backswing. If I try to parry, he just overpowers me and hits anyway

crude flower
#

Keep range and follows his movements

#

See how he swings

#

Get a good feel then if you have a longsword go into halfsword and get a good stab in

#

Or maybe cut off a leg

tawdry dune

#

if you just use your range you're 99% garanteed win.

So if you're not a parry God to somehow parry with a knife and manage to kill (or might be just me with a skill issue that can't parry attacks) you just hold alt and hope npcs are dumb (and often times are) and you get a stab

tawdry dune
cloud pike

and you not only can use another class

but it gives you more points

rancid sluice

hell yeah

tawdry dune

as you're with less advanced gear

#

however the pitchfork is actually peak.

rancid sluice
#

pitchfork and axe are my go-tos

#

they're both peak

tawdry dune
#

It works all the way untill you can unlock the bigger stick.

#

in fact that's the best strategy ingame, having more reach isn't instantaneously making you win

#

but it will increace your odds

#

i assumed this was due to the trunk being roundish, wide, and generally moving away from you and/or strafing you

#

whereas arms are quite often moving towards you and are much smaller relative to your weapon

#

really don't think ribs are an obstacle for stabbing in-game

hollow gale
#

Most annoying part of the game is the completely broken system dying and going to the abyss has

#

if you hold shift and tap w to give yourself some momentum even the smallest knife plunges in quite easily if they're not strafing around you

Hello guys I'm relatively new to this game

aiming is tough but once it clicked that wasd gives bodily momentum more than might be visible it got a lot easier to make effective strikes

tawdry dune

#

for precise aiming of stabs you can pre wind up a stab

#

when you're safe, ready weapon, hold alt, and extend your stab at least about halfway

#

let go of alt

#

now you can tap alt to auto stab to same length

I am in the process of making a meme with some of my own images and images from the community-

if anybody has any screenshots they think will go well with any of these "headache" themes, dont hesitate to ping me with em!

I like to look at 'guards' as positions. I feel like calling them guards leads to believing they are static, or mainly a defense. If you see them as positions in a series of movements, you can start looking at how they transition to each other. And once you start focusing more on the movements rather than the static positions, it comes together much better.

bro how do you become the king in peasant mode

hazy sandal
#

Is there a way to play against the regular AI, not in ultimate challenge mode?

#

I just want to fight peasant to peasant again lol

feral sundial

The fact that the sword suddenly turned into blunt weapon is crazy considering NPC barely touch you with one of these and cut you in half

Which mini axe

call me when you can do that through armor gaps

grand thicket

I'd call it luck

marsh sandal
#

I like commoner on freemode as it has the highest death chance for you and highest death chance for the enemy, no fancy armor. Just pure skill

+no annoying ploarms

I just found old gameplay footage of mine from the playtest, I always wondered if jumping in Half Sword would be possible thonking
Not necessarily needed but, would be cool maybe

marsh sandal

But i do have knowledge

#

I am a knowledgable yapper

feral sundial

#

There's like 5 of those

feral sundial

idk which one it is exactly

grand thicket

#

Why even

grand thicket

#

All you'll see is a ton of arenas

#

The highest form of cooked is being knocked down, 1 leg, disarmed, and your enemy is the baron

grand thicket
#

And yes it is one hell of a small bastard

grand thicket
#

Just a good wack and you'll be BRAINING willie

marsh sandal
grand thicket

Or just when you got the Baron figured out, you get a fatal error and your game ends up crashing

Idk why, but I think people who think commoner boss is harder than Baron have massive skill issue

#

Just juke or block

grand thicket
#

Bro even the Veteran boss is harder than the commoner boss

marsh sandal
grand thicket
#

I mean is in a higher tier but

#

He is strong as hell

marsh sandal
grand thicket
#

Idk what you experienced fighting that boss but he knocked me down as i was his young sibling

#

Every single time

marsh sandal
paper falcon
#

It really all depends on the weapon you're using tbh, but for the Commoner boss specifically you really need alot of patience and discipline to find an opening. Rushing towards him and swinging around recklessly would get you killed

#

The Commoner boss was hell to fight against

#

Even now

marsh sandal
paper falcon
#

Atleast with the Baron, you have some armor to protect you

Unlike in the Commoner, you really need to be more careful

So people easily got decapitated trying to grab it

Some including me didn’t even know the game even gave you a knife

Bc how small it was and how well it blended in

grand thicket

And i mean his endurance would depent but i'd give him a 7

marsh sandal
#

I actually did an experiment and put baron against random enemies

#

His strat is just bonk on the head

#

It’s pretty effective for him

#

But somehow not for us

grand thicket
#

I mean you can just switch to half sword grip and move the halberd left to right in wild swings and everyone is going down with that

late zinc
#

just me or am i still struggling with the first boss

marsh sandal
#

And when I put him up against commoner boss he somehow lost bc he has a little gap between his helmet and chestplate

grand thicket
#

But in regular grip that thing is uncontrollable

marsh sandal
grand thicket
#

Whait for him to swing and stab him

#

You'll die a couple of times but it simply just works

late zinc
#

yeah thats what ive been doing but i keep on getting sliced in half

grand thicket
marsh sandal
#

Prob wont happen for another couple months

grand thicket
#

Go get him tiger

marsh sandal
#

My strat is to knock over bosses and keep hitting their head

#

Thats how I deal with bosses easy

grand thicket
late zinc
#

maybe its because i only used peasant in playtest i just got cut in half

grand thicket
#

And kill the guy inside

marsh sandal
#

And it’s possible for a stab to go through armor

grand thicket
paper falcon

#

alright fuck halfsword devs for not fixing this im serious

#

i have everything, on low

#

this is ridiculous

#

EVERYTIME

#

i've gotten to this point

#

a crash.

#

i cant get anywhere near the baron without a crash

#

like do you not understand how upsetting this is

marsh sandal
grand thicket
#

Okay that's true

split pulsar
marsh sandal

#

yeah you gotta turn it down to gentle

cause otherwise it'll crash for some reason

#

both blood and gore iirc

marsh sandal

thats the only way to get past gauntlet without crashes

and you could still just beat them on the ground lol

and its just extremely boring

marsh sandal

#

I'd say skill issue but i havent see you fighting

#

And then u fall over and 4 guys start stabbing you

marsh sandal

#

generally i feel like its the first few tiers that are most difficult

analog cosmos
#

i die for the stupidest reasons

#

Like one guy barely stabbed my arm and I died immediately

marsh sandal
#

Wait abyss or gauntlet

analog cosmos
#

Gauntlet

#

And then all my progress gets reset

#

Because I get sent to the abyss and chopped to bits

marsh sandal
#

I’d say your smooth sailing at man at arms

#

Due to alot of armor

analog cosmos

#

bro i was just trying to have fun as a giant in abyss but apparently this breaks the boss (and crashes your entire computer.)

split pulsar
#

yeah im done with halfsword for tonight

#

fuck this broken game

analog cosmos
#

The bosses are super easy after commoner

#

Commoner boss is terrifying

fallow dune
#

nah man the longsword boss is gen the worse in my case

#

each time i try to swing at it, either my arm or legs get cuts off

analog cosmos
analog cosmos
#

But even then its really hard

grand thicket
#

I dont get it

analog cosmos
#

They need to nerf him fr

#

Even harder than beggar boss when the new demo first came out

grand thicket

#

The difficulty of bosses is like.
Beggar: 1
Peasant: 0
Commoner 5-6
Milita: 3
Veteran: 3
I forgor this rank: 4-5
Man at arms: 2-3
Soldier: 0-1
Baron 6-8

Just hit his legs and you’re good

the big one with a big ahh blade

Juat hit that pitch fork as hard as you can, rush it and kill that bastars

I have an awakened form in half sword, it’s so powerful that normal punches can rip the clothes and skin off of people, and dents armor easily

What?

Bro delete that

fallow dune
#

bro i want the creator of the enhancer mod to make it so the possess actually switches the player

grand thicket
#

You're getting banned

marsh sandal
fallow dune
#

cuz right now if you possess someone its not really switching. It just makes you control the enemy and your og self still transfers damage

grand thicket
#

Okay lets hope a mod is not here

fallow dune
#

I WANNA PLAY AS A GIANT IN ABYSS BUT IT JUST BREAKS

limpid pebble
#

I finally defeated the Baron after a week of trial and error

grand thicket
#

I mean fighting people with weapons being unarmed is fun sometimes

#

Idk i really like hand to hand combat

fallow dune
#

dude idk how to respond

grand thicket
#

THESE HANDS

fallow dune
#

I wanna play as a giant because its fun asf, but if you get to the boss it breaks.

#

thats what im trying to say

fallow dune
#

then why tell me to play as regular willie?

what factions are you guys playing

grand thicket

wym you found a giant mod-

#

theres like 2 pages on nexus and none of them are a standalone giant mod

i use half sword enhanced but possessing in abyss crashes your game
