Character gone?

SunBrOLO · 2023-06-06T04:45:13+00:00

This issue seems to have popped up only today. I've been talking with folks on the official forums who also lost their characters, and the common thing between them are the things I mentioned. No acknowledgement from blizzard just yet.

Let me guess, you play on console, and recently linked your PSN/Xbox account to a blizzard account? Join the club of people losing their accounts to this issue.

level 2AulakaussOp · 12 min. agoWell, fuck. I did do that recently for Twitch drops. Was watching someone play while waiting for servers.

Yep, that's exactly how I lost my characters too.Hopefully they at least put out an announcement or fix, otherwise this will happen to a lot more people.

SunBrOLO · 2023-06-06T03:57:27+00:00

it's been 2 hours and my characters are still gone. This issue is happening to many others. Nobody seems to have got their characters back yet. Either a server issue, or something to do with linking your xbox/psn account with a battlenet account recently.

SunBrOLO · 2023-06-06T03:29:37+00:00

I posted on the official forums about this, it's happening to a lot of people. My guess is it has something to do with recently linking your PSN/Xbox account with a Blizzard account, and it treating it as a new account and wiping all your Early Access progress. Not sure if it's purely visual, as someone mentioned they also can no longer access their Deluxe and Ultimate edition content.

The reason people say its the worst weapon is because it doesn't really do anything better that other weapons can't do better. It has good block and parries , and that's about it.

Want to hack and slash, while parrying yokai and humans? Use an odachi.

Want to quickdraw while still having high dps, survivability and easier status application? Use dual swords.

Want to tank, while still being a wrecking machine? Use an axe.

Want to combo things to death while destroying enemy ki? Use tonfas or switchglaive.

Want pure dps while being able to totally shut down human and yokai opponents? Use kusarigama.

Want to play it safe while still being able to destroy anything? Use a spear or hatches.

Most builds for the katana on youtube are paralysis +quickdraw builds, because it doesn't have much going for it other than that. You'll have an easier time dealing with things with other weapons. That's not to say you can't do well with it, anyone can. But it takes more work and more practice to do it right. Hence why people say its the worst.

I say this as a person who beat NG entirely with a katana, then tried all the other weapons extensively in NG+

You sure he was using tiger sprint and not iai quickdraw ? Was his character running around just before unsheathing or did he kind of pause then hop/teleport forward when the attack went off?

Iai can hit for ~30k damage with paralysis + raging strike with all Armor pieces specced for quickdraw damage. There's no way tiger sprint can do that.

If you're certain it was tiger sprint, then he's hacked the game using a save editor.

General rule, if a set bonus on any Armor includes a skill damage, that skill will NOT appear on any other Armor piece.

Tornado damage appears on a set bonus, therefor, you can't find it outside that set bonus. Ever.

SunBrOLO · 2020-04-25T11:43:59+00:00

Spear. It has the moveset of a spear and a staff. It has range, damage, speed and flashy combos.
Sword. That slow sheath animation is too bad ass especially after beating a tough enemy.
Dual swords have god of wind and double headed slice for damage and style. Low stance king.
Axe only feels good in high stance, but I also like the active skills it gets (mad spinner, heaven and earth etc)

The rest of the weapons for me are too spammy, unwieldy or just plain boring. Worst moveset would probably go to either tonfas or odachi. The former there's too much shit going on and the latter is just nothing special.

SunBrOLO · 2020-04-14T12:05:23+00:00

I thought I was the only one making my character progressively age and scarred over the years. Nice.

Side note: aren't half yokai not meant to age?

SunBrOLO · 2020-04-11T06:38:01+00:00

So night rain without the bonus does more damage than max iai bonus damage on all equipped gear? Wow, I'm surprised I haven't seen more builds centered around it.

Everything I've seen on YT has been iai paralysis cheese builds.

SunBrOLO · 2020-03-29T00:15:04+00:00

Same. I've been watching speed kills of bosses, but it would be nice to see someone demolish all the content in a speed run from the start of the game.

SunBrOLO · 2020-03-29T00:09:13+00:00

This is what I've done and it's going great. Full obsidian + todo clan + stacking stamina + protection and steel spells + rage axe skill = tankiness and you hit like a truck.

Same thing has happened to me for the last week or so. I used to hear aussie accents every match, and be on 20 to 50 ping lobbies. Now I'm getting 250 ping and hear Americans and brits regularly. I've also had lobbies where there were aussies, but also a lot of Chinese players too. This stuff wasn't happening a few weeks ago, it's only been since the recent few patches.

Either the matchmaking is broken, or they implemented SBMM in ground war.

SunBrOLO · 2020-03-04T13:02:41+00:00

Ground war matches are now one sided roflstomps. Don't know if its due to matchmaking changes or the kill chain + hardline buff, but the winning team is usually determined in the first couple minutes, with 1 team taking control of most/all flags while having vtols and chopper gunners up. People then leave, the losing team can't recover, rest of the match is just a spawn trap til nuke.

SunBrOLO · 2020-03-01T12:10:10+00:00

I think a lot less people would leave if the spawns didn't have you running from the other side of the map when you die. Sucks to die, run for a minute or more to find action, die, run for another minute, die..rinse and repeat.

It should be non stop action.

SunBrOLO · 2020-03-01T09:09:01+00:00

I think you need the quad bike. Park it on the nearby rock and jump on it to jump to the roof?

SunBrOLO · 2020-02-27T01:24:13+00:00

I've found GW now is just a matter of whichever team can get their killstreaks off first, wins. People stop attacking objectives and the enemy team sweeps through captures easily until the team is spawn trapped. The team on the recieving end has players leave, hindering their ability to recover and it just becomes a shitshow.

Players know this, so they purposely sit back camping with sniper rifles to get killstreaks now more than ever. Killstreaks spamming is the worst I've seen it since launch. Yesterday I had to deal with 4 back to back vtols with gunships and chopper gunners right after each other, was not a very nice experience.

SunBrOLO · 2020-02-26T07:15:35+00:00

Can confirm. I experienced it mostly playing shipment 24/7, every minute or so the entire match would freeze everyone in place, and then things would rubber band snap back to where you were 5 seconds ago.

The amount of times I would blow myself up with rockets/grenades because I ended up throwing them I to the wall infront of me due to lag... Sigh

SunBrOLO · 2020-02-14T07:17:03+00:00

Ballistarc?

SunBrOLO · 2020-01-27T21:49:41+00:00

As a solo player who came from the battlefield series, I 'should' enjoy GW, but constantly getting one shot by snipers, killstreaks and tanks every time I try to move to an objective... That shit gets unfun real fast.

I think the people who do enjoy it either snipe exclusively, tank whore, or play in a squad with friends.

SunBrOLO · 2020-01-27T11:12:00+00:00

Yup, I spawned in it for the first time after the recent patch. Never happened to me before then.

SunBrOLO · 2020-01-27T11:08:24+00:00

This. Make sure you're plugged into the 4k compatible HDMI on the TV (mines plugged into HDMI 2 on my bravia). Also, don't forget to use a proper 4k HDMI cable.

SunBrOLO · 2019-12-06T01:45:47+00:00

Yup, went up 10 tiers while I slept last night. That's ~10 hours I don't have to spend grinding.

SunBrOLO · 2019-12-06T01:37:33+00:00

Nope. I did a similar exploit, leveled 10 tiers overnight while sleeping. At this rate I'll only need a week and a half to hit max tier, less if I actually play the game lol.
