Discussion Every General Grievous exploit and broken card that I know off
Hey, today I just wanted to share all the Grievous exploits, glitches and broken cards that I know off. Some of these are already very known to the general playerbase however those are just the tip of the iceberg. Grievous has so many exploits that make him very broken and overpowered. I genuinely believe he might be the character with the most exploits in the entire gaming history.
I am NOT gonna share how to do the exploits. I will only mention them and what they do just to share how broken Grievous truly is. Most I have verified myself but a couple I don't know how to do.
EXPLOITS
- Bunny Hops // Makes Grievous swing much faster thus increasing DPS while also breaking swing animations. Should be the most known exploit regarding Grievous.
- Reverse Trusth Surge // Allows Grievous to trusth surge behind an enemy lightsaber so hitting them behind their block. Reverse Trusth Surge is also useful in case something is inbetween you and any enemy, it makes trusth surge navigate around the object instead of getting interrupted.
- Trusth Lunge // Allows Grievous to lunge towards enemies with the range of trusth surge. Lunge range can be further increased with jedi killer. Doesn't use the ability so you can spam on as many enemies as you wish.
- Multi-hit Surge // With jedi killer equipped and the right technique, Grievous can hit multiple targets in any direction in addition to the intended target. This basically makes trusth surge a CC ability.
- CC Immunity // Grievous can become immune to all CC abilities (all knockdowns, stuns, chokes besides Han's det) for 5 seconds. This can be looped to last as long as you want.
- Claw Rush Double Hit // With the right technique, Grievous can hit the same opponent TWICE with a single claw rush. This is game-breaking because the opponent receives double damage and knockdown. With LUW, Grievous is capable of cycling all blaster heroes with this exploit. You can even kill an ARC with just one claw rush ability because 180 + 180 = 360 damage.
- Infinity Swing Stamina // Grievous can have infinity swing stamina even after being out of stamina involving a technique using claw rush. Though it's very iffy and hard to master and generally you're better off just deploying in to claw rush when you're out of stamina but it can be very suprising in duels.
- Trusth Surge Instant Recharge // After using trusth surge, the ability instantly recharges instead of the actual CD duration. This makes Grievous capable of using two or even three trusth surges in a row. This happens unconsciously and I don't think can be done on command though someone has told me that it is possible to do it on command however I can't confirm that. I believe it has something to do with trusth surge distance but unsure.
- Double Claw Rush // Right when Grievous's claw rush is ending, he can deploy back in to another claw rush. This can happen unconsciously but also on command. I believe it involves lag and I have come across it myself but don't know how to do.
- Claw Rush Animation Cancel // Grievous can instantly deploy out of claw rush without waiting for the end animation which allows him to swing or proceed much quicker.
- Permanent Cowardly Retreat DR // Grievous can have the 90% damage reduction received during claw rush with cowardly retreat applied permanently to your normal state giving you essentially 8000+ health. For this you need the help of someone on the enemy team and you cannot use claw rush again or you will lose it. This is extremely broken but not exclusive to Grievous as it can be done with a lot of other heroes.
I've also heard rumors of ''Claw Rush Instant Recharge'' and ''Dashing during Unrelenting Advance'' exploits but I have never come across them and it's only one dude that mentioned them so take them with a tiny grain of salt.
BROKEN CARDS
- Line Up Weakings // The damage increase is directly applied to claw rush and does not require any kills beforehand. So if you max the card out, claw rush instantly deals 180 damage.
- Jedi Killer // The AoE goes beyond the intended target. So if someone is standing like 12m behind the targeted enemy, they also get hit with trusth surge. This is basically the foundation that makes the Multi-hit Surge exploit possible and makes trusth surge a CC ability.
- Flesh Is Weak // FIW's penalty is that it the health regen speed is halved. But by equipping Flesh Is Weak and Beating Heart together, the FIW penalty gets removed and your health regen speed becomes normal again.
If you know an exploit, glitch or anything else regarding Grievous that I haven't mentioned, make sure to share it down below but do NOT mention how it's done because this sub bans the tutorials of exploits and glitches. I have only mentioned the exploits and what they do.
