I see no flaw here just using the games mechanics to the best of your abilities very impressive

serene tulip
#

NPCs are very predictable though. That's how you can learn to bully them so effectively.
As for swordplay and anticipating how to parry, it's knowing your own weapon just as much as your enemy's.
Maneuvering to protect yourself from the enemy's lane of attack, whether shielding with armored arms, crossing off a path with your blade, or pinning them and denying any effective movement.

There's a lot of stuff that goes into it and playtime does help, but knowing what to practice helps even more

I am supressing their arm movement with downward force.
A horizontal strike is also how I killed them in the end anyway

Now show me you know how to bind and parry effectively

serene tulip
# quasi mortar Thank you king or queen or they

Sure. There's plenty of people here that can help if you have questions.
I read a tiny bit of the replies under you, I used Arrow Time to really start learning to parry. It's in the normal game if you hit F

quasi mortar
serene tulip
#

yeah Arrow Time is meant to be timed at the right moment.

quasi mortar
#

Oh

#

I didn't even know slowmode existed until some dude mentioned it tbh

fossil pagoda

# serene tulip

honestly, don't really like it, probably just a skill issue on my side tho.

serene tulip
#

I can use most weapons and enjoy them, but I've just been longswording because of a persistent footwork bug that makes using heavier weapons really difficult for me

serene tulip
quasi mortar
fossil pagoda
#

I prefer just having a bo stuff at that point

#

It does suck, but until then I'll just get good at longsword

#

I cant use spin kicks

serene tulip

#

so I just grapple fight sometimes, (kinda ez honestly) and just perfect knives.

#

Knife op

I thrust the point of my blade right under his chin into his throat

fossil pagoda
#

did you hit his hand or chest

#

ohhh shit

serene tulip
fossil pagoda
#

yap

serene tulip
#

I don't typically do "stabbing" with alt mode. I usually use momentum and regular arm manipulation to slide and stab

#

I've messed with alt stabbing, but this just seems to work better for me

fossil pagoda

Knifes work with momuntum way to well :3

There would be like fireguns in HalfSword? (Obviously firguns of the time, the first one)

armored gauntlet mode is easier then begin

#

#

i thought only on the first early release of demo like the upgraded one

warm void
fallen zealot
#

one time first time the new demo was released i kicked a guy in the head and his head exploded

fallen zealot
lost rover
#

the head just popped

fallen zealot
#

yeah yeah

lost rover
#

i liked that crunch

#

where can i find those demo images

#

i have them saved

fallen zealot
#

i kicked him in the head and it fucking exploded

#

they need to add this back as a feature

#

but shouldnt be done with a kick

lost rover
#

if you put your damage slider to max

#

your finger was a literal poison arrow

#

just one tap

fallen zealot
#

lol

#

they need to add back head exploding but not with a kick tho

lost rover
#

and in the demo i think willie didnt yelp or anything if he died

fallen zealot
#

OH SHIT

#

would be good with a slam

lost rover
#

but it's gone

fallen zealot
lost rover
#

my hand was covered in blood and his head was gone

solar nest
#

i killed the baron and then my progress for that part got reset now i gotta beat him again 💔

lost rover
#

seems like it could bring back that

fallen zealot
#

i was talking about the first release of the demo like the upgrdaded one

lost rover
#

I just used a polearm and bopped the top of his head lol

mellow token
#

purple shirt is impossible if you get a good run going the game crashes itself

lost rover
#

oh my god itch.io halfsword is the game but wonkier but alot goofier

mellow token
#

nah it crashes on purpose I think

solar nest
#

theres an account on tiktok named "john half sword" and he uses the half sword enhancer to do a primary lotus on willie 💔

deep citrus
#

Nah it's just hella unstable lmao

mellow token
#

it crashes for everyone

deep citrus
#

The way I beat the ultimate challenge was by turning blood completely off

mellow token
#

oh

lost rover
deep citrus
#

Yeah that stops it from crashing

mellow token
#

is that the trick

deep citrus
#

Yes

lost rover
#

if it is turn up gore to 20% everything else off or to the lowest except resolution

deep citrus
#

Iirc you can keep gore on

#

But blood needs to be all the way down

mellow token
#

nah I have 2 PCs a ryzen 9 9950X3D rtx 5090 build and a ultra core 9 285k 4090

mellow token
#

yea

#

both my PCs are great I mainly use them for music production or minecraft

#

and I love gorey horror games or rogue like games

#

half sword tickles my brain in a way by which I can not stop playing it

warm void
#

theres actually some unreleased sneak peeks

#

wonder where that is rn

jaunty birch
#

why does my sword go fully through this guys neck but his head stays on

small dove
jaunty birch
#

like sawing through

jaunty birch
small dove
#

if i were to rmb the enemy Willie wouldve likely managed to cut me in half with the axe by accident

#

i shouldve said "cut me in half with the axe by axident"

astral tiger
#

does he look like an ordinary Willy?

jaunty birch
#

how have you split him down the middle

jaunty birch
#

when im in the ultimate challenge the first guy will have a kitchen knife

#

and the second guy then has a whole sword

#

and im just cooked

small dove
jaunty birch
#

cause if ive only got a cleaver i cant reach him withouft dying

small dove
#

i dont want to be mean

#

but that is actually just 100% a skill issue

jaunty birch
#

bru

astral tiger
jaunty birch
#

yeah i can beat axes and hoes by getting past the blade

#

but with the sword its all blade

#

so its harder

small dove
#

uhm

#

dont use a knife, then

jaunty birch
#

if the second guy has a knife though i cant beat the sword

#

first guy even

small dove
jaunty birch
#

ok

small dove
#

you can also go into freeplay and play as commoner, pick one that has a sword/mace and dagger

#

and then throw away the sword/mace

#

and only use the dagger

#

to learn how to beat them with shorter weapons

jaunty birch
#

to practise

#

ok

small dove
#

from time to time i can beat commoners without a weapon at all

jaunty birch
#

i always pick swords as a commoner

small dove
#

so do i

#

i like fighting commoners with 0 npc dmg

jaunty birch
#

why cant i friggin send photos

small dove
#

i forgot how it was

#

it was either everything was at lvl 3

jaunty birch
#

how do i ghet level 3

small dove
#

msg

jaunty birch
#

just by typing

#

ah

small dove
#

i think theres a small cooldown on getting exp

jaunty birch
#

ok thanks

small dove
#

but if you just msg every minute or so you can get lvl 3 in a day or so

the two handed sickle is really weird

small dove
#

yes

#

it just feels like youre holding it the wrong direction

#

you just want to hold it like a axe, but you cant

dire portal
#

because it's a sickle

dire portal
mellow token
#

with the sickle just hit them with a back swing

dire portal
#

it's basically just a long version of the worst weapon in the game

#

or wait

#

it's a long version of this

mellow token
#

worst weapon in game is the shield

small dove
#

...because its not a weapon

mellow token
#

yup

graceful cosmos
mellow token
#

you can use it as one however

#

forced a enemy to hit themselves in the head with their own weapon by bashing them with the shield

small dove
#

what shoes should i wear today

#

brown or brown

mellow token
#

brown

#

actually

#

wear brown instead

small dove
#

aight

#

how about i mix it up and do brown on one foot and brown on the other?

Hello

green island
worn heron
# dire portal the two handed sickle is really weird

Its called a farmers billhook, they were primarily used for trimming branches. It may look weird, but that is how they were held haha

Hopefully in the future we will be able to use a reverse grip with it to use the more choppy side :p

worn heron
green island
#

i got another problem tough

worn heron
#

Wassuh

mortal cloud
#

I luv tall

green island
#

i might have deinstaled the game and deleated it out the trashbin to reinstall it

#

-and now i somehow cant install it

#

it would be cool to have reverse grip for the 1 handed choppy billhook too

worn heron

it looks like a rotten potato

worn heron
#

you can try running it on dx12 and see how your PC handles that. Dx12 applies Lumens and shaders, which can sometimes bog up the pc

green island
#

what about framerate displaymode resolution and all that?

worn heron
#

and definitely do NOT use cinematic on DX12 because your computer might genuinely implode and cause a huge black hole in your room

worn heron

ok so u told me to to enable VSync and run DX12 and what about Framerate, displaymode and Resolution?

that was fun telekinesis as well

#

too bad i couldnt get it to work anymore

green island
#

it says 2560 x 1440 Pixel , 27"

worn heron
#

I'd lock framerate at 60 or 120, sumn like that. Sometimes setting it to unlimited with vsync on can cause slight stutters

green island
#

and display mode fullscreen?

#

i just tested borderless might be better

worn heron
desert acorn
#

Willie is learning magic now

#

good thing I stopped his hand from getting to me

#

he would have cast burning hands on my face

wheat leaf
#

anyone know a fix or mod for a better lock-on system

#

tired of being forcefully turned away from the dude caving my cranium into the ground so i can stare at 2 people fighting with chairs

green island
wheat leaf
#

doesnt rlly help tho does it, just changes how intensely you stare at one person but not the constant jumps between enemies

green island
#

if that doesn't work then ask Username Ladiesman217 hes the goat

wheat leaf
#

why didnt i think of this sooner

desert acorn
#

usually I disable lock on when im in carnage

#

like when I have to fight one dude with others behind

#

I reenable it when I get back down to a 1v1

#

still clunky

#

but better

scenic quail
#

Add bucklers

wheat leaf
#

idont even understand how youd do that they are constantly always moving around

wheat leaf
scenic quail

#

btw when is the full game releasing?

wheat leaf
#

never, only halfsword2

desert acorn
#

could be 8 years more than that, could be 8 years less

#

or something in between

green island
#

so before gta 6?

desert acorn
#

depends, does GTA 6 release before or after Silksong?

scenic quail

I WAS GONNA BEAT BARON

#

AND THE GAME CRASHEDDD

#

😭

worn heron

#

Try turning blood off respect

wheat leaf
desert acorn
#

it reduces crashes

desert acorn
#

you can keep gore

native yacht
#

okay

wheat leaf
desert acorn
#

meh scythe is easy once you get used to him

#

what weapon are yo using?

wheat leaf
#

you can get different weapons? i just got the lil baby hand billhook lookin thing

#

not the sickle, the one that looks like a sickle with a dysfunction

desert acorn
#

when you unlock a tier, click the portrait again

wheat leaf
#

only issue i got with scythe is that above any other weapon, he literally can just set the weapon on your body and youll be cut in half

desert acorn
#

after you start doing fights in that tier it locks it and you have to spend one point per reroll

#

but you have infinite rerolls when starting a tier

wheat leaf
#

scythe been like that for longer than ive even been playing, i remember in og demo with the dark abyss im pret sure i beat almost the whole thing until it got stuck and disappeared under the map

desert acorn
#

yeah

wheat leaf
#

doesnt matter what armor type that thing just passes through enemies like butter

desert acorn
#

but if you get a better weapon than the small billhook youll be fine

worn heron
desert acorn
#

axes are pretty great

worn heron
desert acorn
#

the hoe isnt as good in that fight though

wheat leaf
#

hoe can be insane if you actually hit with the metal part

desert acorn
#

because of effective range yeah

wheat leaf
#

but that happens like once every gta Release

worn heron
#

These hoes ain't loyal

native yacht
#

if i get one hand cut off can i keep fighting after a while?

desert acorn
#

issue is if you are in range to hit with the metal he is in range forthe blade

#

nah

#

you're screwed fishy

wheat leaf
desert acorn
#

yeah but other arm gets locked trying to hold the cut hand

#

so you can kick

#

but thats pretty much it

wheat leaf
#

im pret sure after a while that goes away

#

i think it depends on damage level tho

worn heron
desert acorn
#

not if it gets sliced off completely

#

if you lose the limb it's pretty much over

worn heron
#

your Willie will be screaming in pain and holding at his stump because he is but a man

desert acorn
#

if it just gets damaged you could be fine

native yacht
#

why ultimate challenge its so difficult

wheat leaf
#

i think your right there, iirc ive had a couple instances where I or the AI could keep fighting without an arm

#

but like i said, with damage value tuning

desert acorn
#

I love early gauntlet because of the execs you can do on bosses

native yacht
#

any tips for ultimate challenge yall

desert acorn
#

regen is much lower than in abyss

#

so try to avoid taking damage as much as you can

#

dont get cornered, stay mobile, and hit when you get an opportunity

#

polearms are great for that

#

especially at later levels when a good blunt hit to the head will be better than several sword slashes

wheat leaf
#

also for gore settings, does the 'gore' slider dictate like dismemberment n such?

desert acorn
#

nope

wheat leaf
#

what it do

desert acorn
#

dont think so

wheat leaf
#

between blood and gore, blood obv is just blood effect values, but what could gore change if not that

desert acorn
#

it might affect dismemberment, but it wont affect gameplay at all

with blood off it feels like im not landing anything

wheat leaf
#

og halfsword feel

desert acorn
#

thats why you keep gore on

#

so you can see the slashes still

#

and see if you got a good hit

wheat leaf
#

im getting lowkey sick of being dismembered to attacks that have the impact of a moist napkin tho so gonna mess w gore

desert acorn
#

it will not make attacks do less damage

wheat leaf
#

thats what the damage sliders are for

desert acorn
#

so be mindful of that

#

yeah ik

wheat leaf
#

idk if its something other people experience while playing, but its like ill parry an incoming attack from e.g. an axe, completely stop their swing, but then move the guard wrong so their axe just rests on my shoulder or sumn, and ill be split straight down the middle out of nowhere

desert acorn
#

how far are your sliders?

#

cause that shouldnt happen

wheat leaf
#

i had it slightly higher for both than default 'gruesome'

#

slightly as in only moved to the first O of each words

desert acorn
#

oh yeah

#

thats not too extreme

wheat leaf
#

right? i know the games fresh i dont wanna expect too much. just gets difficult to try and progress into actually armored levels rn lmao

desert acorn
wheat leaf
#

now launch like a catapult

desert acorn
#

this is how I usually go through gauntlet

#

as fast as I can basically lmao

wheat leaf
#

smooth combo ngl-

desert acorn
#

and just execute this guy

#

the commoner boss is the great filter tbh

#

if you can beat him, the rest of the run is much smoother

wheat leaf
#

now that i realize i can just pick a weapon in t1 its much easier

desert acorn
#

yeah

wheat leaf
#

i consider myself probably better than majority at the game but this weird level system is throwing me off lmao

#

i just do custom fights

desert acorn
#

I do both

#

managed to unlock baron once

#

so at least thats off my bucket list

shell bronze
#

because a lot of people play this game yolo

desert acorn
#

yeah

shell bronze
#

and get a good rush kill on him

desert acorn
#

yeah

shell bronze
#

but if you can reliably kill him you can kill everyone else in this game easy

#

especially without pitchfork cheese

desert acorn
#

tbh depending on your weapon yolo might be the only reliable kill

shell bronze
#

i've done it falchion one hand before

desert acorn
#

if you have short weapons, yeah you gotta go in close

shell bronze
#

it's no drama, all about timing and prediction

desert acorn
#

yeah

shell bronze
#

parrying is not advised

desert acorn
#

but he can still surprise you with a backswing

#

he did that once

wheat leaf
#

for the first time i managed to effectively win through just frustration. 2nd champion fight i got the big axe, swing and he blocks it, the shaft of his scythe literally just rubs my arm and i drop the axe with both hands, fed up w it and managed to 1 punch him lmao

desert acorn
#

hit me with the backside of the blade when I stepped in

#

nice

#

yeah fists are also a viable weapon

#

they do some good damage

wheat leaf
#

if you got gauntlets on they can be insane

shell bronze
#

a parry in one

desert acorn
#

yeah

shell bronze
#

like this

small dove
#

are war crimes truly crimes?

shell bronze
#

slice his face off and block his sword from doing anything to you

#

rushing in all the way/committing is also a good way to get him since his arms will hit you instead of his sword

native yacht
#

any tips to counter pitchfork?

desert acorn
#

if you don't have range

#

kicks can also help create an opening, just make sure you dont kick into the tip

small dove
#

i hate the t3 boss

wheat leaf
#

the more im playing this gamemode the more i hate the game overall

small dove
wheat leaf
#

just gauntlet

small dove
#

i like gauntlet

wheat leaf
#

i dont know how to explain it, im dying to a lot more random things that wouldnt ever kill me the other times ive played

fallen zealot
#

first time was i knocked him out cold second was i slammed him on the ground

wheat leaf
#

especially in these lower ranks, ive had a legit dozen deaths now that are purely from enemy weapons making contact, not a swing, not even a drop or anything, literally just contact with the weight of paper

#

big candlestick always kills in the stupidest ways imaginable but this seemed a bit much

native yacht
#

if i get my arm like

#

seriously cutted

#

and

#

it cant hold weapons

#

can it regen

wheat leaf
#

iirc in that case the regen only goes so far as to let you 2 hand again or maybe attack in the same way a broken arm would

#

like the super floppy bad swings

maiden slate
#

Any mods that let me grow a new leg or something

#

both arms and legs are broken and he just still isnt giving up

wheat gust
#

#

Anyone else keep playing gauntlet just for fun

#

Already beat it 3 times in a row now

wheat gust
#

good heavens he is striking the stanky leg

muted granite
shell bronze
analog crane
#

is there a way to do a whole run with just the long candlestick as my weapon

#

that thing is weirdly brutal and i'm kinda curious if i could get to ultimate challenge with it

#

the little spike oneshots any willies without armor and it's a blunt weapon for ones with

#

little candlestick is also borderline OP but big candlestick is nuts

elfin abyss
#

i wish we could hold weapons in more than two ways

#

like what if i wanna smack someoen in the head with the back of my axe

#

cant wait to never play the early access of the half-sword cuz im broke

desert monolith
#

this game is so fire does anyone know a more narrowed down release date?

lapis marsh
#

Q4 this year

wheat leaf
#

damn, gauntlet gets pret easy after the first 3 champions

shell bronze
#

third champion is lowkey just a test for game knowledge

#

if you know how to fight him the rest of game falls in line immediately

wheat leaf
#

Finally got past that champ and went up until t8 before taking any damage

shell bronze
#

unless you pull a bs win then good luck facing off against the rest

wheat leaf
#

Yes and no i guess

shell bronze
#

it's also because armor gets prevalent in the higher tiers and disguises flaws in gameplay

#

so people just keep moving along doing what they do

wheat leaf
#

I found it was moreso that the armor gave me a buff to not die to as stupid of reasons, but still lost it at first game of t8, just fell to the ground for no reason and couldn’t get up lmao

#

Like t1-3 I’ll get brushed by a candlestick and take the same damage as a full impact strike, random bs like that

bronze mural
wheat leaf
#

Actually had to try and survive at the lower tiers after that it’s just don’t grapple against swords and don’t swing first

small needle

how did you aqcuire that

how do you import weapon mods

Uh

#

do you have ovrdth's selector?

small needle
#

whats that

bronze mural
#

good god

small needle
#

whatt

bronze mural
#

this is the tool used to import loadouts

small needle
#

i have the halfsword enhancer

bronze mural
#

that's not related in the slightest

small needle
#

im talkin weapon mods from like nexus

#

will this work

bronze mural
#

?

#

no, you can't use half sword enhancer to import weapon mods

small needle
#

i mean this

bronze mural
#

???

small needle
#

OVRDTH will it work for importing mods from nexus

#

im onfused

small needle
#

im slow

#

oh ok

bronze mural
#

for context on how u actually import it

#

after installing ovrth's enhancer

small needle
#

how do i instal ovrtj

bronze mural
#

*selector

#

Im losingit

#

brody

#

you download it, and install it.

shell bronze
small needle
#

oh

shell bronze
#

much unlike lower tiers where it's just a death sentence unless you instantly surrender or menu cheese

small dove
#

guess where these dents on the baron's head came from

wheat leaf
shell bronze
#

veteran+ usually

wheat leaf
#

the rest thats like a 30% chance of survival or less

shell bronze
#

helmet and stuff keeps you from certain death

wheat leaf
#

oh word i forgot you wont die from an axe to the chest

shell bronze
#

and when i say survive i just mean buying you enough time to give up

bronze mural
# small needle oh

Once you install ovrdth's selector, go to documents, ovrdth's selector, pooled saves, and extract the weapon mod's files into pooled saves

small dove

you know more about the game than i do so i cant argue but it dont feel that way the vast majority of the time

quick question about armor, waht is the piece of armor called that sits right in front of the shoulder, usually in knight tier, you can pull it off and use it as a fist weapon. Its like a big outward curved plate

bronze mural

small dove
#

and im starting to get good at parrying with knives and daggers

bronze mural
#

I was planning on releasing some of my stuff on nexus at some point, would you be willing to help me test some of my stuff

dull thunder
#

hey, what was the requirement to stop the baron errors again? was it just no blood and gore?

bronze mural
small needle
#

yes

bronze mural
#

great.

small dove
#

but i can try

small needle
#

i clicked the file

small dove
#

just make sure to not include viruses ❤️

bronze mural
#

I'm likely not going to post the stuff directly on nexus

#

until I actually finish refining it

small dove
#

then how do i test it?

bronze mural
#

I mean I can send the files themselves

#

but mostly in the form of

#

you telling me which parts would work best

#

and what would be too cumbersome, etc

#

Oh I js realized I can probably use that one sword crossguard that's almost entirely flat, and scale it down to make the handle and crossguard for the mini yoru

small dove
bronze mural
#

I recommend you try to move your dagger into their swing path instead of reactively parrying

#

that way you also don't overextend

mint wadi
#

Are you?

small dove
#

am i supposed to?

mint wadi
#

Shift is what puts you in a stance and turns on auto parry

bronze mural
#

yeah

small dove
#

all i know is that the dagger is not going where im telling it to go

deep citrus
#

I swear I autoparry without shift sometimes and it'll fuck up my thrusts with a spear or pitchfork

mint wadi
#

skill issue

wheat leaf
#

counted a total of 68 punches to the face or shoulders and I died from one stab to the ankle, why must god forsake me

mint wadi
small dove
#

either i suck at parrying more than i used to, or i am holding shift without even realizing

bronze mural
#

Autoparry is designed to move your weapon as little as possible

small dove
bronze mural
#

if it's screwing up your thrust or slashes, that's because you're swinging when you should be blocking.

I am on High using DX12.

wheat leaf
mint wadi
#

max blood max gore.

bronze mural
#

One of the best ways to do this is to use a weapon with limited rotational capabilities like a falchion, to learn how to block and parry when otherwise incredibly difficult

small dove
bronze mural
cinder moss
#

oh btw are they releasing multplayer. I would lowkey pay money to play the game if multiplayer is coming out(if it cost money)

wheat leaf
#

a strike that blocks and thrusts/cuts in the same motion

bronze mural
#

ah

wheat leaf
#

sorry maybe theres another term thats what i learned in hema

bronze mural
#

Yeah, I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to hema/longsword terms

#

in that case, no.

#

Mastercuts work just fine

#

you just have to actually use them properly

#

otherwise, you will just get hit unnecessarily

wheat leaf
#

you say that stances and autoblock hinder strikes if they are performed when the autoblock should be blocking at that time, that would seem to inherently work against the mastercut

#

stance/autoblock i should say

small dove
#

only balling is going well

mint wadi
bronze mural
small dove
#

and before someone says anything, theres a reason im PRACTICING parrying

bronze mural
#

Your neutral is NOT an impenetrable wall.

mint wadi
#

Mastercuts are just a handful of strikes that people like to use because they're cool and effective. Mainly effective.

bronze mural
#

but if you're guarding in neutral, it's much more effective

#

when I say "guarding" I mean moving your weapon to where the opponent's likely going to strike given their movements and angle of their weapon.

wheat leaf
bronze mural
#

If the autoparry is screwing up your attacks, you need to improve your timing, otherwise, it's like using mastercuts when the opponent is on the defense

dire portal
#

autoparry messes up my guards

bronze mural
wheat leaf
#

likewise i think its whats giving me such a hard time

#

that or just bad aim, likely the latter mostly but it doesnt help

mint wadi
#

They really like to stay away when your swangin that thang

bronze mural
#

If you're annoyed at the autoparry, your best alternative is to be hit square in the chest with a strike of some kind

wheat leaf
#

that happens anyways

bronze mural
#

Lemme show you what I mean rq

wheat leaf
#

granted like you said autoparry isnt just gonna magically save you every time but its kinda buns

bronze mural
#

When the autoparry kicks in I prefer to reset to neutral, or if my swing path is unchanged, to continue the attack

#

I try to mirror my opponent's weapon movements while still lining up attacks

#

that way I can still block or parry if I need to.

#

does this let the enemy get more parries? I suppose. Does this prevent my head from being lopped off? absolutely!

wheat leaf
#

im sorry if you already said this but to clarify, can autoparry engage at any point in a stance or attack? or does it exclusively come from having fully reset and paused in the neutral position

#

like im beginning to wonder as someone who primarily fights in drawn back stances if its engaging midway through a swing, as i very often attempt to attack but itll just rotate and change guards instead

mint wadi
#

Bro I just got stunted on by willie

bronze mural
#

given that line of reasoning, if you had continued with the attack, you would have just been parried anyway, or at worst, been hit.

deep citrus
#

elbow deep i nthe abyss and I get the glitch that pins my arm behind my back and drags me 🥀

mint wadi
wheat leaf
#

i think it might be the problem then, see ill be in a fully pulled back position waiting to do an active parry, but instead it stops the swing, and changes guard positions to either block it or just fuck it up all together

mint wadi
#

I just found this emote

#

I love that you can have modular arms.

wheat leaf
#

most especially with any 2 handed weapons that have full range of movement, 2h swords and axes primarily, they feel downright impossible to reliably swing with sometimes

bronze mural
#

that's how arms work

wheat leaf
#

no im saying the movement entirely kills the attack before its landed, as in less than 1/3 of the way through a full swing

deep citrus
#

HEEEELP

#

HEEEEEEEELP MEEEEEE

#

is my run cooked

wheat leaf
#

switch hands?

deep citrus
#

I tried

wheat leaf
#

ohhhh wait nvm

#

yeah you might be cooked Wokey

deep citrus
#

the arm drags me if I dont fight against it

wheat leaf
#

anytime ive ever had that happen i either get dragged under the map or have to give up

#

if you give up you dont lose the whole run though ig

deep citrus
#

this is an abys only run sadly so giving up means back to the start for me

wheat leaf
#

like it puts it in the state of rotating blocking positions rather than completing the swing, leaving me entirely open every time it happens
