Next Build Changes (most likely 1570something)

I'm pretty sure just an announcement on the forums would do. Just having it "officially" stated in a post would probably work out. I'm mean I haven't seen it stated anywhere but when people bring it up when someone says KAG Beta.

 

Lol @ "scumbag archers"

Regarding bombs it would be cool to make some changes to the knights shield as well. For instance! - In close close quarter combat as an archer I have jumped to the right side of a knight and he has thrown his bomb to the left a very tiny bit, his shield is guarding to the left, I still die.

I just think the knight's shield should have protected me in this case, like how cool is that, I tried to use the other knight's shield to my advantage. Idk, just a thought from a fellow scumbag archer

 

archers are already going to be VERY strong in range with the bomb nerf, you want to dominate close range vs the melee class even when they have a bomb?

 

yes

 

Lol good one

 

Can you revert the door nerf in water til you fix objects being affected in your hands(or just fix objects being affected in your hand because it is very irritating to have to reselect doors when you get in water and the door, in your hands, start breaking)

 

I disagree, it would remove a lot of the skill in playing knight because people would be less willing to get the high ground, and it would just become a slash-fest.

Although I would like to see the ability to negate the stomp effects when shielding upwards removed. I can jump from a mountain, land on a knight and do nothing to him, and then get immediately jabbed to death.

 

I was mainly talking about when I play archer and try to stomp a knight. Sorry I was unclear :P.

 

Curently both highground and lowground have certain advantages. Highground can stomp the knight under but lowground or knights in general have longer "range" when slashing upwards than slashes pointing down. So knight under can slash the knight above before he stomps him. Now there are several posible outcomes here:
First: if knight from above decides to slash late, meaning he will charge his slash as he falls, he will be beaten by the knight below (if knight belove slashes up) or he will deal 2-4 depending on the hight. (if knight below doesnt time his slash properly or holds his shield)
Second: if knight from above decides to slash early ,meaning he is slashing as he falls, he will beat any slashing enemy below with speed he has from gravity and early timing. The bad part about slashing early is when knight below sidesteps and falling knight hits the ground, there is higher chance that he will get stunned upon landing. Also it deals less damage when landing on shields than late slash does. Overall it sounds prrety balanced to me. Sorry for my bad english

 

On my view, stomping have both good and bad sides - first, even if you will manage to slash knight stomping u, you will still probably get damage from him falling on you(so countering stomp without damage is almost impossible). Second, the stomping is risky - you would miss, fall on his sword, get suddenly bombed - in all this situations you are stunned, and are in 1-2 blocks far from enemy - good enemy will instanly finish you.
Slashing+ stomping requires charging time for good result, for this time you would dodge, prepare to fight off or hide in (under something uppper you/ after wall/doors).
Stomping seems balanced, as good knights will use it properly and get good result, while knight with bad skills will just miss or will not get any result. The better is skill of stomper, the better is the result - this means its pretty balanced and not at all OP, because can be countered with multiple ways. Game where skill plays role will be always be seeming disbalanced to the players with bad skill

 

A KAG bomb in its current state would have killed all 4 of these people.

Except the builder in the blue pants.

Really silly for just 25 gold. Not to mention a bomb grants the ability to fly over people and buildings like superman which is a huge smack in the face for builders who choose to build above ground rather than just tunnel like a molerat, and archers who are supposed to believe that their advantage is range.

Hopefully this change will also affect bomb jump distance.

 

I would imagine that bomb-jumping would be more difficult to do. There would be a smaller area for knights to propel themselves from the bomb explosion, literally meaning less room for mistakes

 

Actually, its a fine idea, the bombspam will be less effective and it will be much more dangerous for spammer.

Actually, the idea about increasing bomb cost is a fine idea.
The CTF is a money generator, and getting 100 money on 4 bombs for less then a minute is really easy.
Increasing price would stop noobs from getting too much bombs, spam em and get more bombs = no more bombspam
For skilled knights getting more money is not a problem, still they would buy kegs instead of bombs, but this is other shit
