Even when counter attack works it still allows the state effect to take effect. So when i counter attack a bleed i take no damage but the bleed goes through. Same with flamethrower dot and all the other state effects. If I counter attack, the state effect of that move should not work. It's broken now and actually has been for quite a while now but since counter attack is working more frequently now its more noticeable. Please get an answer from the devs for us and let us know if thats what is intended.

Are you sure? A fencer tried to dizzy me, which I counterattacked, and I was A-ok.

Thanks for the info.


I will let the patch "sink in" some more over the weekend and collect all incoming data in order to compile a swordsman post patch thread for the correspondent board.


Have a nice weekend.

This also happened to me - I used center of being against a commando friend - he used his flame dot on me, and though I took no damage from the hit, I was set on fire and the burns killed me.

So is this only with DOT's? I haven't managed to counterattack any kind of bleed yet, so I don't know myself.

Take another look. Not only are the effects still hitting, but the damage is being taken away as well.


Ex: xxxx hits you for 151 damage, but you counterattack!


151 damage drops from your HAM.

Was under the impression that you were supposed to take the damage and deliver some of your own with counterattack? Otherwise its just like a pikemans block except with a huge bonus

Hey Gore, maybe you can get a definition of what exactly counter attack is supposed to do, it seems a lot of people here are a bit confused about what the word means and what the special defense actually does.

Gor did that homework already...a couple of times actually


I'm pretty confident that we will get an answer to that soon, together with some other answers (scythe)


Stay tuned.

Don't say things like that Gore, you might just get my hopes up.

I can't give any guarantees yet, but for now my advice would be: keep them up there...a tiny bit longer
