Combos with the knight

Hi

So I was doing some "research" about the knight's combo, how it works, if we can jump and change direction during a hit... and how to kill my opponents faster :)

As everybody knows, you can do a powerful hit with full charge, and if you "charge" for 1/2 (or 1/4, I'm not sure :p) second just after that hit, you can do a second one.

But I realised you can do infinite combo, although it's very hard to put into practise : after the 2nd hit, you have to charge for half the charge-bar, and then release your hit. Yep, you don't have to charge the whole bar to do a 3rd powerful hit. Right after that, to do a 4th it, you have to do what you did for the 2nd one, charge for 1/2 sec, then charge half bar, then 1/2 sec, then half-bar, then 1/2 sec...


Well a video explains it better, but it's in French :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzcWUCeN_B0&hd=1


So, did you know it ? I hope this post is useful to some of you :)

 

Give this man a cookie for discovering it...

And a slap in the face for telling everyone.

 

This is a great way to chase down runaway builders. They're probably pissing themselves all the wall up until I get to them XD .

 

That's a bug ? Oh well :(

 

aswell, when you've spammed this double slash, after you gone stab a enemy door, it'll be killed in 1 hit (stab) dunno why and it works only for doors, but i've noticed that already ingame.

 

I noticed you could go up to three with this method but I thought that was normal, as I could never manage to land a forth hit. Way to spill the beans, though. Also, Geti, why not leave the the third hit in:)

 

Do you have any proof that the idiots don't read the forums? You don't have to be a member to read them.

 

"Build a ladder up to their skybridge."

They have the skybridge, they're the ones dropping knights down then collapsing the small ladder you only just managed to build.

Most skybridges are far too high in the air to get a catapult on them without building a tower to the heavens, which, if you're being assaulted by people with skybridges, is not possible, you get murdered before you can even try.

If there was an outlaw on maps with too much sky area then I wouldn't care about skybridges in the slightest, because they wouldn't be OP.

Right now, every single map has hundreds and hundreds squares of sky above the ground. The only possible reason for all this sky, is for skybridges, at the moment. Of course you cannot put a restriction on sky size, so the next possible answer is to stop skybridges. But that's another thing entirely, since I get now people find skybridges fun, I can't really say anything about it.

All it takes is one person on the forums to tell one person in game, then everyone is using it. I'm thinking back to the time the bomb exploit was found. It absolutely ruined games. The maps are already cheese but honestly they were ridiculous back in the time the bomb exploit was found out about. I don't see why it's so bad that we want to prevent games being ruined, even if it's only for a few days.

 

I will now join some server and tell my team about this exploit. Let's see if everyone is using it tomorrow.

 

Alright. I apologise. That was a little of exaggeration. But there's no reason why it couldn't spread over days.

 

Well now everyone's going to be using this :(

 

Don't worry look at the date thing have change it's impossible now you can only double slash and rarely 3...

 

Glad he did. Exploits must all be crushed!

 

The last post before you was from 3 months ago. That was a replying to a post that necro'd the thread up from 3 months before then.

 

Haven't been paying much attention to post dates; just responding to what I feel moved to respond to. Besides, it's a post and why not delete it if you think it needs to stay dead? Also, has this issue been resolved? If so, again, why not simply delete the thread?

 

Well I'm not a forum guard, I'm just a whiny guy who's also a guard. This issue HAS been resolved for months, by the way.
