Should be longer than 1 iframe

I only make a point of this after loosing 5 charecters to 2-tick deaths due to shotgun, (half of which were vika minchi), I think given the way a lot of bosses now continually spew projectiles rather than burst them, in some cases (umbra, vika, pcap…) doing both, a longer shotgun protection would make the game more possible for noobs like myself.

Kind of complaining that game hard and me bad, but I do think that this would improve the overall experience, while not deducting much challange from bosses as it would only help to prevent 0.25 second and below deaths, which are shorter than the average human reaction time.

There's been talks already about increasing it to 0.25 or 0.5 seconds, but I still fully agree I had been an advocate for this since I heard it was 1 frame only, and that was even before I got Vika'd

Yeah, one shot protection is really needed

#

At first I was it would make the game too easy, but considering how many ways to die in one hit right now and lose everything is just immaculate and unfun

The game just has too many shotgun spam right now that it feels like a necessary thing

indeed

#

all of my deaths, except one, has been to shotguns

#

and only that one death actually felt deserved and logical

My first "true" warrior death was "ok we didn't clear, partially my fault for the yak to knock me into the dragon", my second death "ok I jumped like a complete goofball straight into the phoenix, that's fully my bad", the shaolin doom "ok I did make a mistake of standing too close, even if the boss pattern sucks ass (1.2.8 dragon)", nomad meanwhile just felt like game had enough of my complaining and had me have a taste of what other players were having

my friend's first death was insta-kill by a sandworm, which also gave me 2 times I almost died to one shot, so protection does work but 1 frame is not enough

#

also he had this cool daeth

I still have that very nasty, funny but sad clip of my doom warrior almost dying in the advisor fight, the one time that it worked as intended, and only because the enemy projectiles just barely missed me right after

yeah that's a big oof
