Heh i had to be reminded I have a higher counter-attack, but I always get smacked up. does it work? Being just a pure Carbineer i have a +105 counter-attack, but um. does that work? I always get smacked up.

The way i understand it counter attack is broke and is nothing more than another form of dodge....Its realy hard to test it though.



If anyone has a good idea on how to test it id be willing to donate some time if you happen to be on tarq : )

+105 Counterattack sounds nice, but it simply does not work as often as it should. My Master Marksman character will Dodge 2-3 times as often as my Master Carbineer.


Now for one more day you can stack this with Swordsman and get the number around +200 Counterattack and that has shown to be VERY effective, hence the NERF.



Lets hope the new Dev Team flat out SHOCKS the crap out of us and delivers a balanced game with the Combat Revamp.

Counter attack works as far as I know. Counter attack does not stop you from getting hit, but lowers the amount of damage you take when it occurs. Only thing is we don't actualy counter attack. Its sorta a "scratched me" defense. Unlike dodge which is a complete miss. The thing that gets me is that it only works depending on the weapon you have equipped. It should work no matter what because I learnt it. This is what usually leads to the defense stackings and why the devs have capped it now.

Counter-attack done by ennemies dodge partially the attack but gives them an additionnal non blockable attack.



I never seen my master carab doing it. Needs to be fixed. Can't wait for publish 8.

Counterattack works for me, just nowhere near as often as it should as a Master Carbineer (IMHO).
