Block/Parry/Dodge/Disrupt positioning

Post#1 » Fri Jun 10, 2022 2:37 pm

I just wanted to confirm that the following still hasn't been changed:

Block - Front and Sides
Parry - Front and Sides
Disrupt - 360 confirmed
Dodge - 360 confirmed
Guard: checks parry first, then block

I think you are right.
For block/parry, I think this is more like a cone of +-120° (not 180°) in front of the character, but I'm not 100% sure.
And sometimes, with lag, you can get parried from behind. For example : https://clips.twitch.tv/BlindingInspiri ... c5mvjYAszV.

it's work 360 degree for dodge/disrupt only, unless they had bug again, because it happened once that dodge bugged. Apparently most of live had dodge bugged and worked only front. Disrupt has always been 360 degree even in live.

was forum suspended, keep in mind avoidance check on guard are differents, it should be back to block/parry only for all atk, it has been changed and reverted once if not mistake. Another exeption is rampage bypassing guard avoidance here compared to live (and all other undefeatable atk outside morales such chosen st atk cleave.)

it's good to know because then it's bug, there was a time when I tried a fun spec in my wp dps in which I staked willpower and disrupt and the sorcerers (we already know which ones) when they didn't hit me head on they looked for the sides and the back and they hit me easier, to the point that if I turned my back on them I was dead
