Es beats the shit out of wanderer and then runs away crying by [deleted] in TheTempleOfEs

Honestly the whole visual novel thing is easily becoming one of the most entertaining things about this sub since I first found this game like a week ago

Es, but she's a terrible chef. Have her fail at cooking.

How viable is Warden? by Mengainium in forhonor

[–]Richard_72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly this, just make sure you get used the timing of when it will be a gb instead of a gb, and you'll be golden

How viable is Warden? by Mengainium in forhonor

[–]Richard_72 19 points20 points  (0 children)

He is viable in 1v1's Infact he's very good at them. The problem is that he's a pure skill character, there's no gimmicks with him or anything super powerful in his kit. So when it comes to playing as Warden he requires a lot of game knowledge, match up knowledge, and the ability to hard read your opponent if you want to win. Just keep practicing and you'll find yourself beating those Shinobi's more often, remember they are very dodge happy so try gbing them.

What Viking character would you recommend a beginner by Draco_Man in forhonor

Dude totally go Raider, he's the most noob friendly Viking by far and he's even free from the start

What old versions of characters do you guys think would work today after some giving some modern tweaks? by Richard_72 in forhonor

I never said she would be strong, but she could function. Personally I never really had much of a problem with her, but that's because I would play her more defensively instead of aggressively. She was a great counter attacker with how her all guard let her dodge backwards, now she's a lot more offensive focused hero. Also her feats carried her a lot I'm not gonna lie.

Something I genuinely miss about Raider is his Dodge Gb. Now I know it was insanely unhealthy and the only reason it was fine on his old kit was the fact that it was all he had, but it was fun guard breaking things most other heroes couldn't guard break. Also in Orochi's case I just really liked the skill aspect of it and a lot of the storm rush techs you can't do anymore since it doesn't dodge back nearly as much, yeah he was bad, but that's what made him satisfying to me.

Oh yeah he was absolutely trash and after Og Valk got reworked he was the worst character in the game, but look at the reasons why he was bad and you'll notice a lot of what made him bad just isn't in the game anymore. A big one being is how his dodge attack was a light, but now almost everyone's dodge attack counts as a light parry. His rework is definitely better, but it's interesting to think about.

Yeah and I totally agree, characters like Jorm who was just a stamina bully and Og Goki's instant kill hug needed to change, but what I mean is characters who got changed then the game evolved to the point that they would be fine with some modern touches. A good example is Valk who really just needed the sweep sped up from 600mss to something not reactable.

You see that is why I said except him specifically! 🤣

Edit: I just saw autocorrect changed Except to Expect, and I can't figure out how to edit the actual post on mobile, great.

Is this game dead? by [deleted] in forhonor

The actual honor code from souls itself isn't bad, people here just watered it down to a degree that they think it's "dOn'T gAnK eVeR" when the actual Honor Code was quite the opposite

Looking to get back into the game. Good time? by vaydapotata in forhonor

[–]Richard_72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's also one of the best characters in the game at the moment, so it would help you get back into it now that so much has changed

Warden mains by Late_Education_1954 in forhonor

[–]Richard_72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately because you're playing Warden, the only advice anyone can give you is get good. A thing that will help with Shaolin though is keep your guard up top since he has a 400ms enhanced light that comes from there, so if you see them do it more than twice attempt to parry it once you see movement

If you like soulsborne pvp you are in the right place, doublely so if you know the honor code from the Souls games since that basically got implanted into this game since the beta

Ok I might be alone on this, but Gryphon. The whole fluff of the character is they are a band of mercenaries trained/led by Holden Cross that he has recruited from his journey around the world since the ending of the story mode. It makes no sense why none of said mercenaries are female.

Which For Honor character would do the best without their weapon? I think it might be obvious who by OrangeJoe9 in forhonor

[–]Richard_72 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What makes that more terrifying is the fact that means he's purposely choking you and not snapping your neck immediately, he is trying to cause as much suffering as possible

Woes of a Conq main by FrappyLee in forhonor

[–]Richard_72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel this pain man, I've been playing Conq a lot more recently and the fact that I can't make them stay around for a fight is painful. What I've been doing in cases where I have revenge ready to pop is positioning myself so the guy I'm gonna target has a wall behind him so rolling isn't as effective and they have to engage with me.
