i was wondering who was going to say something first 😭
mods strike him down for inappropriate jokes
Brodie shit himself lmao
dawg ur shit is sticky
most players with 100+ plus hours knows how to parry all the time
shit isnt sticky
Maybe your shit isnt sticky
if your shit is sticky then something’s wrong bro
maybe kiowa is spiderman
I mean I don't have 100 hours in game. I just spend all my time in Knight tier practicing.
I told you not to tell people about that
commoner is better for parrying practice
True but I also practice my precision a lot in Knight tier.
the silk either comes out of his wrist area or is artificial in basically every iteration of spiderman
Stuff like parrying, then breaking Willie's leg, then hacking his torso open, then breaking his neck when he doesn't scream "Aiee!"
reposted: "Why don't they add pvp?!" basic pvp fight of a sword vs polearm
All while he's fully armored.
the pinnacle of skill is when you parry or block with weapons that aren't supposed to be doing it
Co-op PVE could be fun tho
Imagine jumping the Baron with the homies
parrying with a falchion is fucking useless, but its the biggest "I am better than you" flex that is possible in halfsword
coop brave stand
and then i ACCIDENTLY split my homies head open with my longsword
I would actually enjoy playing it
I want everyone here to acknowledge the reason pvp isn't in this game is because of weapon balance. (reposted)
This game would only be viable in extremely low latency for MP
Binding of Isaac couldn’t even do a smooth mp
i thought it was netcode
Speaking of I might try to redo my Farmer run on Abyss.
trust me i think pvp will be getting pretty goddamn stale after the 500th Plancon or Halberd
Physics is very hard to do smoothly for multiplayer, atleast for it to be consistent among both players
Plancon banned
Realistically you'd rubber band and then 50ms later you're cut in half
But the scythe just... Stinks after a certain point lmao
yeah have fun doing that
Plancon and billhook both banned in MP
suplex city
i take pride in my scythe clips
yall don’t understand… candlestick is genuinely one of the best weapons but yall ain’t ready for that convo
New scythe is only really good when you have gore at maximum
it’s considered an early run weapon
old one was murderous
really shouldn’t be
caseoh fan?
swear to god he’s on my tv rn
Which one
The short or long
polearm
It’s general consensus that candlestick is op
big one, duel weild little is just as broken though
I know what you do with polearm variants
i don’t get why it’s early game
Because abyss is weird
this debate is starting thanks to Mcwonder, me and him are fighting later istg. (its a joke) but generally the long candlestick isn't good, its just good for the tiers it is in
Btw does the abyss reset after you beat the Baron?
And those drops on t1 boss
even in just normal demo runs
No
Do you even fight the Baron in abyss?
Yes
it’s only in level 1 and 2 spoilance
Ohh spoilance
its in every spoil
I mean the enemy tiers. Like do you go back to fighting Peasants and work back up again or is it always knights after the Baron?
oh but then again spoilance itself is early game
Always knights
so?
Sadly
Candlestick would turn Baron into dust
Oh BROTHER this Farmer run is gonna suck 😭
in some cases
Gl bro
it’s genuinely great for blunt force but then the instakill dagger on the end is just overkill
I hope for a giant candlestick mod wielded by Baron
nobody would ever beat baron again
And I can't use armor either. Only scythe and basic clothes, and I have to take the farmer's hat off of him and it's my only headgear.
the Plancon destroys it, the Halberds are just generally better, Poleaxes are Poleaxes, Spears have range and that tiny spike at the end of the candlestick does the same damage as the spear, yes but the spear is easier to land buster. The Billhook is a fucking sniper rifle
Artoriasmaxxing
Good luck bro
the baron weapon is so heavy, along with the third boss weapon, it makes them hella unusable
i’m not good with names
Plancon is the spiked spear
Baron’s kick gives you a lot of accelerations for openings
All big things shiny metal on end
now where did that come from…
You can generate a lot of force without too much movement
that one’s goated
I got the hang of using that thing, when you land a hit dudes drop immediately
halberds = Giant fucking cleaver on a stick
Plancon = Spikey bat
Billhook = longest usuable weapon in the game
Spear = Pointy end
Poleaxe = Axe or hammer with 3 pointy ends
never gonna be used to it
Powerful stance holy shit
Put on some clothes bro
Why is that sword so aesthetic
You're not Artorias bros 😭. You're Smough at best.
TAKE THAT BACK
I love big sword
billhook is too hard to wield to be comfortable, there’s an argument for dodging your way into a close quarters candlestick win again halberds and possibly spears
Alright. You're Iron Golem at best.

Cannot remember all this use /mommy to pull up this guide!
aura
I landed a perfect hit once so good, that the helmet of the poor guy went flying away, wish I had clipped it
holyyyy
Some people in this server argued billhook is as strong as plancon
the billhook is the most beginner friendly polearm in the game, what the fuck?
i used something one time and the guys head went flying off like a rocket
Ill accept iron golem
i might be getting it confused then, do you have a picture?
That was meant to be worse lmao 😭
what is bro on about
dude just called the most easiest to use polearm "hard to feel comfortable"
It is really long and heavy
i’m making assumptions off what i’ve been told, i don’t know the names exactly to which they are
i hate fighting plancons so much bro
My goat iron golem may die in 10 seconds but the design goes crazy
heavy??? dude what 😭😭
Dude you just stick it outwards and walk backwards from what I remember.
it doesn't weigh anything
Bro y'all never played the game or what

Hi
This is a drum playthrough of Stabwound by Necrophagist.
For those who are interested here is the one-take single cam video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yiqdp1kvD_s&ab_channel=TonyVandenEyndeDrums
This was the first song I ever heard of Necrophagist and it immediately blew my mind. It was also the first encounter of the tech death metal g...
Long billhook is literally the easiest weapon to use
You’re not telling me you can just pick it up and flail around with it with full force?
yes
GOAT is crazy ngl 😭
What's next, you a Demon Firesage fan?
Well not me but a trained Willie sure
There is timing to the swings and handswapping for momentum
chat what tier is the best for practicing swing accuracy
Commoner
Demon Firesage is shaped like watto from star wars so I dislike him
Knight, Commoner, or Veteran
not rly
you move with the swings
ever heard of footwork
Like with footwork ik
Also hot take: Capra Demon is much worse of a boss fight than Bed of Chaos.
Knight = head trauma practice
Commoner = sword clang clang
Veteran = idk what he sees in that
you don't even need to hit people with the actually hook to beat them
I've just heard people like practicing on Veteran
the shaft does a ton of damage too
I practice in militia because it's fun
Cappa Demon is stupid cause they didnt care, bed of chaos is stupid cause whoever designed him has brain damage
Im not sure how that puts them relatively
Dunking on this part of ds1 is too easy
ion know about commoner
since they have zero armor
Arty run didnt work out btw
Practice clang clang of sword and dodging
i see
i love not trying!!!
The thing is, Bed of Chaos can be cheesed in a number of ways. If you literally just own a bow you can win it easily.
Capra Demon is just straight up not possible unless your character light rolls, or you're severely over-levelled.
Which kills the point of every build being playable.
Very difficult weapon😭😭😭 /j
Effort?! The fuck is that??! Spanish?!
Yea capra be spikin my cortisol levels lmao
i haven't used this thing in like almost a year 😭
and i still have no issue using it
Wait sorry I forgot you're discord person
billhook is very difficult
Gotta add the /j for good measure
Ok that’s what I mean. It’s hard for new players because they’re used too often swing to fast with it
THATS ISNT A BILLHOOK!!!
The main issue is that he always starts with the jump attack, which cannot be dodged by tanky characters. Even if you have a heavy shield you literally do not have the stamina to block it until late game.
That is not a billhook I think
Top 10 lies
it totally is what
That is literally the Baron's poleaxe 😭
i am crying due to the horror you put into my computer ram to watch that clip
My phone is dying
We're spoiled for rolls after DS1 tbh, even 2 had pretty gucci Iframes once you level ADP
Wait jolly bug shaker your Slovak?
its. the. most. newbie. friendly. polearm. in. the. game.
your arguing with a person who used to main nothing but polearms like a religion
bro got hit with a world cutting slash
Actually 1 is one of the easiest games since in 1 Mid Rolling literally has no downsides compared to light rolling. The frames are identical, the animation just makes it look worse.
you will not deter this answer
you can send clips now
a clip farmer is born
That is fair
Also fun fact: You don't need to be a chaos servant to save Solaire. If you get the poison mist pyromancy you can kill the sun cretin through the wall
The humble early game Capra Demon:
Don’t care. 0 Willie physics.
I already know where this is going
they will release the game on christmas
they just said theres a delay so its a surprise
Based
We need to tell the rest of the community
I myself am a FAITHFUL Princess Guard so I find it very helpful
Also I always kill the Fair Lady.
I could never make myself equip anything except for the elite knight set and a bastard sword and my own hopes and dreams
reshade, and it looks cute
Firekeeper Souls are quite hard to come by.
Pyromancy atleast feels thematically appropriate though
Looks like a evening
half souls chat
I just beat people with the Manus catalyst, some cult robes, and the Mask of the Father.
I am lore accurate Pinwheel lmao
I think it strikes the same autism fixations
ik
I mean idek if there is a Dark Souls discord server so I mean where am I gonna talk abt this kinda stuff
Let's be real which one we choosing
either less damage or faster dodging
l
a
Who gettin da best head
I chose yellow actually
i pick faster kicks
I didn't know it had effects when I did
My man
How is faster kicks a thing
how to deal with buckler users 101
You're like the shaolin monks from the alpha mindset training podcasts
What is even that
I don't know man
Spear go Spear
poland
poland is faster kicks
That 360 was not necessary bro
Tim to rerun gauntlet
same difference
Bro saying that here is getting you on the news
Bohemia is Czech
Exactly
very cool
Yes Very much
not really no
Didn't they teach that in schools?
no, they didn't teach me about bohemia in school.
Dang you're missing out
this shall be my custom commoner fit
vanilla and chocolate ice cream fit
Make the hat red for like the cherry on top of the ice cream
idk how to only change the hat
Or the peasant boss hat to make it a ice cream sandwich
was an annocunment ever posted for the predicted release price
i just pressed random loadout until i got smthn that looked good
Oh I thought you had half sword enhancer
whenever i try to use it my game instantly crashes
There was like poll on price I think
The should add Willie trading
RIP
Students don't dictate the curriculum unfortunately.
also my history studies centered on the War of the Roses when I was in school, that was cool
Stattrak Willie skins
ill take a look and see if i can find it
I don't know for sure
Cool ig
Not cool enough for Bohemia though
(only historic thing from this time period I know btw)
lowkey i needa find somebody to help me fix it
Idk when I installed it worked just fine
The launcher
the based Halberd
Exactly
and then the game immediately gets a fatal error
Did you check if your launcher didn't set settings to max?
You can change graphics setting from launcher
-dx11 in launch commands from steam properties
i did not know that
yea nahh i cannot do that
nicely done
Really? Maybe try downloading a newer version or something
I suck with computers so
also i downloaded the newest version there was
i didnt see one
big big big
big difference between saying fuck and being a dickhead
Well duh like of Course you can't say the actually bad stufd
this is a game about cutting people's heads off
so swearing isn't that much of a stretch
Brother what is that Christmas tree decoration
hell, I impaled a guy with a fucking candle stick earlier, saying fuck is pretty tame by comparison.
Yea I get the point
I think I know what you can and can't say now
Especially when someone got banned yesterday for being racist
Just don't be politically controversial and you're good
what is it with medieval style games and racists coming out of the woodwork
it happens in literally every hack and slash title set in this time period
not the place for the convo but i've noticed the same
does ANYBODY know how to fix this
i wanna use halfsword enhancer bro
They weren't racist, they just used an inappropriate word
Try manual istall
Buy better PC ig
cant afford one bro
Dsng
What's your DX12 version?
my what
what settings
u prolly js said a banned word
DirectX
ohhhh
If it's DX12 your game will be a lot less stable

Good knight to anyone whos going to skeep

What are those graphics😭
My blade and sorcery looks better
Oh no I'm lvl three there's no saving me
I like the graphics
Nah were holding out on Saint Nick too.
goes hard
No plans to update at this time everything is being reserved for EA.
blade and sorcery looks pretty good tho for a vr game
True
Yes the EA release will feature custom loadouts and weapon and armor customization.
The plan is to keep the demo up.
Yippe
his game looks dull as fuck
i was on medium graphics when this was taken
they look that bad?
You drinking haterade?
how many hours cro
yo wassup Sir Mꮯꮤꮎꮑꭰꭼꭱᏼꭼꭺꮪꭲ
like 1500
😔
no worries man. i only got like 40
all good, i'll wait for you to catch up
Felt like fucking geralt in the witcher serie with all those lil almost offscreen parry
Hello how is going?
geralt be doing too much sometimes
Winds howlin
HOW IS GOING!
Is the witcher worth playin
fr lol
with mods yes
yeah its on sale rn go buy it
maybe not the wither but the Witcher is indeed playing
Going howy.
Base game Witcher 3 is totally worth playing
overall pretty good
been having some issues with hs enhancer but thats about it
pretty good day
Mcwonder in the house
My mom plays witcher lol,well atleast she did,she Waits for the fourth part to come out
story yes, combat no, it has no oomph, it feels so floaty. There is no hitsop or anything
Those filthy mods like to break things!
Yeah but its nowhere near as bad enough to need mods imo
no i dont!
to each their own
Guilty conscious, I will be checking your modlogs.
I mean the average players first playthrough of the Witcher 3 shouldn't be "yeah what combat overhaul mods should I get" at least let the guy enjoy the game vanilla the first go around 😭
yea whenever i try to load the mod it instantly crashes the game
i already posted it in #modders-guild-hall tho so im js waiting for somebody to respond
yes, but the combat is a very important part to make an enjoyable game imo. Witcher is known for it's lacking combat, why nit fix it then with a few simple mods? Get your point tho
yowch
Are you losing mouse?
using?
imo, the combat is a little too floaty and definitely janky but the rune system and the drinks make it interesting, I do understand where you're coming from tho the amount of times Geralt attacks the opposite direction of a drowner is one too many
Are you playing with gamepad or mouse?
mouse
W tf
bros mastered the greatsword
on sum ichigo kurosaki typa timing
Your precision is scary asf
lowkey someone should make a zangetsu mod
Love the runes and lotions/oils, they are intresting, it's just the melee im compaining about haha
Are you gonna get the new game dawnwalker?
is gamepad js mousepad or what
Made by ex Witcher devs
Yes, but i'll see what the reviews say first
I can agree with that, looks interesting tho
I just hope the armor customization is dope
vampires are cool asf
I'm a little worried about that part, apparently you change during night and I hope its not like some Skyrim level shit
I've been playing half sword for over half a year and I just found out that there was a free mode option I thought there was only gauntlet
Don't you read lol
I was looking everywhere idek how I missed it 😢
How do you think the vampire mechanics will work?
Is our guy canonically called Willie and will he be in the game
Este é o teaser da 5ª temporada de The Boys. É o mundo do Capitão Pátria, completamente sujeito aos seus caprichos erráticos e egocêntricos. Hughie, Mother's Milk e Frenchie estão presos em um "Campo da Liberdade". Annie luta para organizar uma resistência contra a força esmagadora dos Supers. Kimiko está desaparecida. Mas quando Butc...
No idea i dont think they've shown it at all yet, my fear is its either A. Its like Skyrim where you transform into some corny ahh vampire lord or B. You're exactly the same but get some wacky little bar that fills up and lets you do some ultimate moves type shit.
My hope is that your stats are increased but there's other mechanics at play like light or specific enemies that can challenge vampires head on, like it will be far better if its a passive thing where you're stronger in general but weaker towards other things than you turning into a full blown vampire or a bar that needs to be filled
yeah
They feel so lazy
I hope you can still do vampire stuff during the day, but maybe some limitations like reduced regen or maybe that you dont have access to an ability, idk
is the game set in a new universe?
why do people even make thesehttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/pAERSnXAd68

yo
my games not launching
its just on a black screen
i was playing it fine yesterday
alr i made the suggestion, im hoping it gets noticed 😁
Try this
still didnt fix it
it took like a whole 3 minutes just for the game to pop up on the bar at the bottom
and its still just a black screen, before it did the unreal engine start animation after a while
the loading times were NOT this bad yesterday
What’d you do between yesterday and today lol
Try a clean reinstall
Delete all files relating to Half Sword existing in your local files. Be sure to back up your screenshots folder if you took any!
Uninstall the Half Sword demo via Steam
Right click on Half Sword Demo in you steam library Manage>Uninstall
IMPORTANT
Press WIN+R then type %localappdata% hit Enter
Now Navigate to and Delete the HalfswordUE5 folder.
Finally, reinstall Half Sword Demo.
Please note Appdata is a hidden folder by default and you need to enable show hidden items in the file explorer.
i added a mod to change my damage multiplier, it was 2 files that i added to the thing, i then deleted the files last night and hopped off, then this morning its stuck on a black screen, i already uninstalled and reinstalled
wait
i didnt do the win+r thing
im doing it now
ill let you know if it works

Not just any mod
THE mod
Oh shit you are so right
The Sir Moai of christmas is The Mod
IT'S SO UP
not enough tang
bro is NOT winning the 4v1
I'm Full Sword
CHUCK THAT BITCH!
bro gruesome with battle axe is like the best
Is there any quick way to fight the same armor and weapon over and over
With mods or something
Best I can do is spawn guy, spawn weapon, wait
Oh i thought that was just my loadout
Ill check it out thanks
Fortnite or Half-Sword?
5

Half-Sword (This game is for real men)
you need enhancer and ovrdth
its not actually called custom loadout
these are injectors
meaning they just inject themselves into the game for you after a basic walk through
ovrdth is a app that needs to be ran while halfsword is running
you can just pin it to your task bar
both of these can be found on nexus mods
I got enhancer, so i just run enhancer while ovrdth is running in background?
enhancer always runs soon as its injected
Stop missing before i grab your sword and smack you with it
oh Militus, you missed the most dumbest thing ever
they arent misses, they are preemptive parries
Theres 2 different options for enhancer, i chose the 1 that doesnt inject itself. it makes a separate launcher
Every time you wanna use
crazy, anyways. someone said the Billhook was hard to use
never have i heard something more untrue in my life
it is hard to use, for me anyway
But it doesnt seem like ovrdth is capable of selecting enemies loadouts, thats all i was interested in
you need to make one
which i have a video of
That still seems to be selecting your own loadout. I can easily spam the randomize button to get what i want. But if i start a fight and its not a swordsman or whoever i want to fight, I may have to exit game like 10 times to get lucky enough to get the combatant i want
And then its over in seconds
oh like that?
no its possible to get AI to follow have a specific loadout
half of the community wish they would
myself included
(i hate fighting 400 shields in a row)
Yeah thats tough
I keep getting lie 20 1 handed maces in a row lol
They dont stand a chance
the most i can recommend is
if you want swords
go commoner
if you want polearms
go militia
if you want armor that is balanced with some other stuff
go Veteran
Veteran has alots of axes right?
and two handed swords
polearms
and the dreaded shields
but smaller shields
not fat ones like the higher loser tiers
the what?
yeah, you heard me
the higher tiers? are corny
shields there, shields over there, shields on top of you
I like the shoulder mounted shield thing
Me: I can't wait to play some high tiers.
Higher tiers with 200 pounds of armor and a shield: Hi squidward
I enjoy the armored fights a lot more for some reason
But I feel like the npcs may not be great at aiming for weak spots in armor from my experience
bro got a facelift
idk
just like how they can barely cut with the falchion
storage
Do you know how much storage is needed?
102 gb,
What wow
Lmao
bros thinking
havent been knocked down in a long time
wobba
shield.
thats why
its a shield
You really dont like shields
the anti fun measure placed in this game by the devs
because its not fun to go against
it does nothing but drag out fights
and on knight tier
its not even historically accurate
guys is this tuff
https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/lEJwpItHFmHUmNy_W?invite=cr-MSxrYnosNDIyODc0MTEz&v=24
Watch Untitled by brochacharoonie and millions of other Half Sword videos on Medal. #halfsword
I've never had too much trouble tbh
its there to just be annoying
Its not accurate?
parrying is peak gameplay
crazy block from behind
bug shake ?
knew the moment i stood up he was gonna be winding up a swing
getting good at halfsword is lowkey easy
all u gotta do is play for >100 hours
every 100 hours is an extra level of skill fr
1500 hours is level 15
im at level 0.25 rn
Does the barron fight crash at a certain point for anyone else?
yes
Plus an extra 120 from the playtest
do the bug shake
Tomorrow is half sword!
Still working on the parrying
bro i just cant beat the barron because once i get to the armoured knights it just crashes
time to go back to clip spam
by gods bones!
I've been having this really weird bug recently where all my weapons keep going diagonally up whenever I swing them. Is this common?
It doesn't matter how I swing either. My weapons always go diagonally up.
You need to turn down the blood to minimun in order to play the baron, game just crashes with the amount of blood, gore, weapons and armor lying around.
If you don't have a high end pc I'll advise you to also turn down graphics and some of the gore to avoid the crash
How so? I'm intriged by this. Can you show it?
If you just wanna fight the Baron, turn off the training dummy, go to Knight class, and hit play. You'll be put against a Grete Champion, but it'll be the Baron instead of the Black Knight.
I actually just deleted the video I was recording 😭
Was trying to do a Gladiator run in the abyss and I just got rid of the footage.
Btw this Gladiator run is kicking my ass
I can make it to the Royal Guard pretty easy but he's so difficult with nothing but a pair of pants and an axe.
What is a gladiator run and where does everyon learn the names of all the guys
oof that's a shame, I haven't heard or managed to get this kind of bug so I was interested in it XD
I'm having the same question too, what's a gladiator run
Its a run where I can only use the Gladiator (1st Boss)'s weapons and gear. So only heavy axe, heavy helm, and pants.
People just call him that. I heard someone say one of the devs calls him that but idk.
Sounds like fun
is that the short poleaxe?
yeh
I heard it throws real well
It is the polar opposite of fun lmao. I don't get anything but pants and an axe until I beat the Royal Guard, and that's if I'm lucky.
My character constantly swinging wrong despite my perfect inputs also doesn't help.
smartest most dangerous ai
Nvm thought you said sharpness
I'm also recording it for a YT video so I have to keep deleting and restarting my recording. I'm not stopping until I get the full outfit either.
Axes are harder to have good edge alignment with, but if your swings are wrong then you're not preparing your swing properly
I know how to swing the axe, but all of my swings warp diagonally up for some reason. Haven't had this problem until tonight.
is the royal guard the helmetless guy with the mace
No. Royal Guard is the 4th boss.
The Veteran boss doesn't deserve a nickname
Like the axe head rotates upward so it hits bluntly?
Or your swings literally go upward for some reason
Kind of? My swings just always move diagonally upwards no matter how I swing, unless I actively swing with enough downward force to override it.
This one.
If I see a clip I might be able to help
He's the hardest boss in the game imo. Every other boss I can first try, even with the Gladiator loadout. Just him and his stupid Plancon.
The alignment should entirely depend on the preparation right?
For the most part
Like the backwards swing before the swing
I'll try to save some recording to show you.
backswing
Lol thanks
It's good to know the term
annoying on the surface and fatally dangerous in the mind games
I beat the game without ever knowing that or learning how to guard lol
What's odd is that the heavy axe doesn't seem to have the problem when I use it in half grip, probably because my Gladiator's arms aren't as loose.
the magical armor
aura farm fail
i found the arm on the ground dont ask
I wonder who put it there
Me after killing over 200 Willies because they didn't say "Aiee!" when they surrendered:
lmao
i only dont listen to their surrenders if they use a spikey stick
i forget its name
The only time I spare someone with it is the Royal Guard (4th Boss) cuz he's the only hard boss in the game so he's fun.
guys how do i attach a shield to my shoulder
You stow it by holding the grab button on the hand you're holding it with
You can only do it with the small square ones. You hold Q or E and you'll do it automatically.
oh alright thanks
It has to be the specific kind that goes on your shoulder though
yeah i got that one
The one you can yank off of the Baron goes onto your chest right? Or is that just how he spawns in?
its the one that knight tier gets when you spawn with a polearm
now i never use it
Yeah the little square shield
because my armor is my shield
Me as the Black Knight:
just knights in general irl
Btw is it just me or is the Black armor basically invincible?
Like, even moreso than the Baron?
That shield on baron's shoulder is definitely just a stylistic choice
What is that thing even doing
also historically accurate
It's a better, darker version of the heavy armor that has a smaller random chance from what I can tell.
sposed to be for jousting
some of the later period jousting shields had springs so they would fly off for specatcle
Like genuinely the Black Knight armor feels more durable than the Golden Armor the Baron wears, but that might just be me.
Yeah that makes sense
i love how extra the late medieval era was
it looks cooler, therfor you feel cooler, therfor you are stronger
Perfectly timed insult
Alright chat, question: Should I do a farmer run (scythe, brown hat, shirt, pants, sickle) or keep trying the gladiator run (heavy helm, pants, heavy axe)?
Had a fight a few days ago where a Willie tried to grab my sword from my hand. It sliced his hand open, and my character immediately called him an dolt and shoved him over 😭.
i called a guy a cuckold right before accidently stabbing his penis
"accidently"
For some reason when you have any amount of armor, the npcs are crazy about going halfsword even when its semmingly stupid strategy
half sword is the way to beat a man in armor
But you dont want to initiate a duel from across the arena
easier to slide it into gaps and blunt force tramau
they r very bad at iit
https://youtube.com/shorts/l5RGFJZRgc8?si=lNG-b6GRMNC39Nox
This one right here. Don't mind the poor skill. I already slit his gut open and was just trolling him in the clip.
oh yea thats dumb
lmao
i feel like its just that at higher tiers the ai is more defensive
I love how he stumbles over at the end like his feelings are hurt 😂
id imagine more than his feelings
Really? Every AI I go against in Knight class tries to half sword and rush me.
Even the Baron did it when I fought him solo.
interesting
I shoved my sword into his ankle and watched him hobble to the corner ofc.
I'm honestly surprised he still has 2 hands with how he grabbed that sword.
i fucking LOVE the axe auto parry!
whats that?
this game has a feature where if your weapon is next to a strike
it will automatically defend
the axe is like rly good at this
I wish MY axe did that during the gladiator run
But no, the Royal Guard just smacked it away and shoved his Plancon up my ass.
Pretty sure he twisted it too.
What's really annoying is that the Royal Guard has the Plancon with all the extra spikes on it, not just the 6 normal ones.
has anyone gotten a full vertical chopping in half
No but I've cut a dude fully diagonally.
that always seems more painful than normal
No, old
huh never heard of it
Diagonal or Vertical?
i like manually parrying
diagonal
how my stupid fucking axe feels like auto parrying the attack that doesn't even exist:
i love this low quality image
Yeah true, especially with how it works in Half Sword where both of their legs come off.
the legs love to fall off
Btw should I allow myself to grab ANY full head helmet, or only the one that the Gladiator uses?
i didn't move at all for that parry btw
ive said it before but i love how the game properly shows the effectiveness of armor, especially full plate
what the fuck are you listening to
animals by three day grace
i needed to FEEL like an axe main
fair enough
See you get to use the two handed axe. I'm stuck with the heavy axe on the gladiator run. Good news is that if I'm lucky I can get one before the mirror match.
i love the man-at-arms axe
That's like the one crappy part of the song, the rest of it is good
ok fair
Now I need to find a way to get his helmet off of him to complete my build faster.
I don't know if there's a way to do that though.
Yeah but the specific helmet I need is very high tier unless I can somehow get it off of my clone's head during the first boss.
i made a low quality shit post to show my love for the auto parrying axe
helmets are one of the best tools of war ever made
LAMO
I'm more lenient with the pants since you literally can't find the right pants but the helmet needs to be perfect imo.
I wish I could kick the helmet off of his head.
Can you kick helmets off of people's heads?
i have a solution but it involves growing a new head
no
i wish
What if I decapitate him?
yes
Or will it just be his head?
I totally meant to do that with his sword
its possible
So I can get the proper helmet early if I just cut his head off?
i sniff a jedi
Nice
To decapitate him or take his helmet from his severed head?
idk
BIG SWORD
my knife loadout btw
random question i'm sure has come up before, but any chance of VR support?
if half sword added vr support i think my life would be complete
especially if they add fbt support (which im getting soon, whenever it ships)
we got blade and sorcery so you can stick with that for the meantime
yeah
Alright chat, after a while of trying, I've officially deemed the Gladiator run completely impossible. The axe isn't cutting it. Literally. It cannot cut through gambesons.
That means that after you beat the Swordsman, your run becomes nearly impossible, and after the Royal Guard, completely so.
cant you just hit them with it
Does this mean you just now made up the Gladiator run yourself?
Not once they start bringing helmets.
im pretty sure you still can
ive done beggar only without using their weapons against them (but usually disarming or grappling) and i was able to beat the game
Then you'd have to sit there hitting them for minutes while 3-5 of them dogpile you with top tier weapons, meanwhile you have literally zero protection.
he didn't dance, therefore he dies
Fists are unironically better than some weapons. I beat the Baron bare handed.
is gladiator just peasant with the 2 handed axe
Yeah
ill try that next time i get on (i am on apex rn)

Cannot remember all this use /mommy to pull up this guide!
And the helmet if I'm lucky enough to make it that far
It might just be the diagonal swing bug that's messing me up.
WE are all playing the halfsword vr port when it drops in 2029
Since I keep aiming for their legs and my guy hits them in the gambeson instead.
i would kill to have an open-world vr game with halfsword type combat
I might as well keep trying though
hit that mf with that "VALHALLA!" jump attack
I have no reason to stop
would be hella fun to just wander around aimlessly and slime out everybody you come across
i usually aim for the head, maybe thats why i dont see your issue with the axe
I'm having a glitch with the game rn where my character always swings diagonally up no matter what, so I can't aim for the head or I'll miss 100% of the time.
i see
what axe we talking about here
2 handed axe
I'm stuck with the heavy axe for my gladiator run. The beggar tier one.
the "I must defend my kitten.." high tier, or the small one
the farmer tool axe?
VR kcd
That's not the axe I have actually. 2 handed is the mid-high tier one. I have the heavy axe, the one that looks like it's made for woodcutting.
Yeah the 2 handed version.
isnt that the 2 handed peasant axe
is that a bad thing?
wuzzat
It just can't cut through gambesons and my game glitch makes it way harder to aim for legs and heads.
kingdom come deliverance, a series of two games that are the best medieval rpgs
if its the one that the beggar boss uses, then its the one im talking abt
Yeah
just got to peasant rn so ill try a run with it
I'm doing my run in abyss btw
yes it can
i am probably not going to
i see
Again it could very well be my game glitch fucking with me. Chances are the forced diagonal swing is messing up my edge alignment.
i tested every axe in the game on militia to test the cutting power and compare it with other axes of the same tier like a month ago
could it just be that your overusing slow motion
and they are all about the same exact thing
I don't use slow motion ever actually.
i forget its there
i only really use slow mo if im trying to make stuff look cool that normally would be too fast to see (e.g. a spin kick)
and id rather save my stamina
oh your swinging it wrong
yeah could you send a vid of the bug im actually curious too
No I'm not is the thing. I've practiced with it before and know how to align and swing it. This problem has only occured tonight.
axes tend to do this quite a bit, it happens when you swing a bit too quick
I might just half-grip and bash their heads in with the axe lol.
could you send a vid of the bug i'd like to see it
I thought this was a cool little parry
I compulsively delete my failed footage so I don't have any rn.
it happens when you swing too quick
could you not grab some rn
Ik what you're talking about. Like I said though, I have literally only had this problem tonight.
The axe almost feels more unweildy on the backswing, so you gotta go slower on the backswings to make sure the alignment is right before bringing it down
Never once before with this axe.
yeah its not a bug
Restart your game
its just part of the axe
what changed between yesterday or earlier and now?
correct
Yk I might do that actually. For some reason I haven't yet lol.
dawg 💀
if he could send a video of it, it'd probably help
slow it down and it will be more straight
My character forcibly adds upwards momentum to all of his swings regardless of how I swing the axe. If I aim for the head, my character swings above their head.
Could be physics buggin or your just not in the same groove you were in
that isn't a bug
not as in a description of the bug, i was asking for what changed that could be causing the bug
because if literally nothing is different on your end, and the game didn't update, and this has been happening since you started the game, then its unlikely that its a bug (or atleast a new bug)
Oh I have no clue. I only turned the game on to do this challenge run and that's it.
