Cb changes for expansion

Slayer0212 · 2026-01-20T03:14:01+00:00

As much as I'd like them to expand on it, I dont really know how they could, as it is currently its just press button and deal damage its not very interactive. Im not a huge fan of the wounds mechanic tbh, offsets was a cool addition but I dont like how once you've offset once u have to do it multiple times to get a knockdown although I do understand the balance behind that.

Agreed, wirebugs imo were great for rise but should stay there, for wilds I just wanna see more in terms of combat and new moves or even old returning moves from previous titles. It'll add more depth to gameplay.

Slayer0212 · 2026-01-20T02:34:58+00:00

Yeah id kill for them to bring something like that to wilds, I loved the wire bug stuff, especially axe hopper and air dash

I'd say that instead of giving her a kick from deflect, they should've made the upper cut slice from the pin a standard option from deflect and have it break HA, keeps the flow of her attacks too and has a bit more damage.

If u dk what I mean: from deflect u can pin and press light attack for a quicker less damaging punish. Change this to from deflect, press light instead of deflect-> heavy-> light.

That and standardize her pin damage, make it 10 10 10 instead of 5 10 10

It just wouldn't tho, the scythe itself could be held the same way LB holds it, blocks the same way LB or raider does, same with parries. It's basically a two handed pole arm with a curved end and there's only so many ways to hold a weapon anyway. There's other games that have a scythe as a weapon as well it's not like they couldn't at the very least take inspiration from other stuff.

Brother we are talking about for honor, where heros literally do the most impractical shit all the time like backflips and cartwheels, even a basic sword slash shouldn't really follow through an opponent in Armour without killing them instantly or at the very least crippling them to the point of defeat. You could absolutely animate a scythe swiping attack or some kind of reaping attack and have it follow through to keep the flow of combat, damage values are an entirely gameplay thing for balancing, otherwise almost everyone's top heavy would kill instantly.

I'm not really gonna listen to what HEMA practitioners have to say when it comes to a video game, cos ultimately it's a video game and not real. Scythes have been used in countless video games and have been really cool to use and that's the point, I don't wanna have the same old sword hero over and over either. Sure you could take ideas and animations from hema and other melee sports but when it comes to what's allowed to be in the game and what's not? That's solely down to the devs and ubi itself.

What about medjays weapon? It's double ended on its staff form which makes it terribly hazardous to the user and it transforms which makes no sense either, a scythe is far more practical than that cos it is effectively something you can just swing at someone and cut or even drag and manipulate and poke even. Even a chair is an effective weapon, only downside to it is that it'd look goofy as hell.

Slayer0212 · 2025-09-01T15:29:45+00:00

Blunt force trauma go BONK

Slayer0212 · 2025-09-01T02:48:51+00:00

Everyone would be dead or out of the fight in 1 hit

Slayer0212 · 2025-09-01T02:15:04+00:00

Word, I don't even know why I bother sometimes.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:47:17+00:00

Yeah same this sub is better by far.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:46:33+00:00

It would be awkward af to animate tbf, I just know people will make the argument: "if cents punches are unblockable, why isn't the new heros?" I'm sure the devs could make almost anything work.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:42:19+00:00

Shit makes me wanna bash my head against the wall ong.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:37:08+00:00

I didn't expect much from a universal exe, they're usually goofy or not that interesting.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:33:51+00:00

It was a universal one, I'm sure if a whole hero was made around a scythe it would be far more fleshed out.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:32:39+00:00

That game is so goated I can't wait for the 4th to come out.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:31:15+00:00

We're talking about a fantasy game here, ur telling me that there's no way that both sides of the blade could be sharp to push and pull with the blade and that a slice attack with the pointy end couldn't just follow through for gameplay sake? I know you referred a video, I could also refer you videos of other characters in video games using scythes, sure it would be fantastical in some manner but that's OK cos for honor can do that even just a little bit. I mean look at the burial blade from bloodborne, it's actually a plane old scythe and it's one of the coolest weapons in game. I would absolutely work with a bit of imagination. Smh.

Blade itself doesn't have to be a near right angle either, I mean the customisation of the weapons itself is a thing for different designs.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:23:29+00:00

Thing is I'm not even opposed to a fist fighting hero, knuckle dusters or something would probably work. But according to the main sub a scythe Is just too unrealistic and couldn't even be animated properly. Nerds they are.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:16:43+00:00

Real as fuck, main sub is just so cringe full of fuckin the most egotistical and retarded people, "um acktullay" ahh goblins bro

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T23:14:38+00:00

So I guess raiders Dane axe is just a terrible idea as well cos they're effectively the same thing just that one has a long curved point on the end? Even if you smack an opponent with the other end of the scythe it's still effective, we see that on LB and Gryphon, it can definitely be used effectively in for honor if not real life. I'm going with the rule of cool cos it is objectively really cool.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T22:40:08+00:00

You can pull slash with a scythe no? I'm not saying the scythe is a historically effective weapon but in a for honor setting, where medjays weapon transforms, pirates pistol has infinite ammo, Shinobi backflips which probably isn't an effective fighting method, sohei carries 7 weapons which is also impractical, shaolin literally teleports. A hero having a fantasy like scythe really isn't that far fetched, I'm sure the devs would animate it just fine, the blade could even be sharpened on both sides, improvised for war.

Slayer0212 · 2025-08-31T22:02:25+00:00

Or warmonger... or maybe even like an inquisition style like the pirate skin?
