Thread: one-hand counterattack... ???
looted a +10 one-handed counterattack armor enhancement.
sounds good, but isn't counterattack defense limited to carbines, and two-hand swords? we've already established that dodge only works for fencers or pistol-wielders.
currently, dodge/block/counter seem to work identically (except for the dodge animation) in defense... causing a HIT to turn into a MISS, with the exception of bleeds. the difference seems to be based only on whatweapon is wielded, not on actual effect (when you or an enemy 'counters', I have never seen damage returned).
if it were a lesser bonus, I'd probably use it and test it (and have a hard time figuring out from the combat spam if it worked at all). as it is, I'd hate to use it and have it NOT work... it's a better trophy than decay item.
USE USE USE USE even though you dont get any one handed counter attack on the fencer tree, dont mean ya cant have any at all
trust me, it works i know this for a fact- my friend has a +5skill tape for one handed counter attack on all peices of his clothing, and he counters about 1/4th of the time
