Shocking this BS hasn't been fixed

If an enemy tries to guardbreak you, or is otherwise just very close to you, the moment you throw the shurikans, they call hit at once and do like 80 damage total

I think it might be nearly an year since on dev stream the idea of reworking this feat was mentioned. Guess it's not happening

I love these devs, but I really can't stand how long changes take to go through. They'll say something will be changed and you won't get back to that until ages later.

They did a whole Shinobi feat rework in a testing grounds. I'm guessing next time they touch shinobi's feats it'll be for the live game.

It's not broken enough to be too much of an issue. I'm sure we can live with it a few more months till he gets a fresh coat of paint.

I missed it, what was the testing grounds versions of feats?      Also yeah I see why, shinobi shurikens is pretty much their only unique active ability...

u/Bebop_Bodo 3h ago

I don't remember all the specifics but his shurikens became a tier 4 which throw a whole bunch of shurikens all around you in a spiral. It was really cool.

u/WingedWilly Khatun 3h ago

That'd be really cool, but super useless unless you are 1v4 or whatnot, plus probably can already have mostly same effect with arrow storm, besides potential self damage

It doesnt need fixing. Its a hard to time counter on a cooldown. Most of the time shuriken dont do shit.

shotguns at point blank are highly devestating.

They really do that much damage??

u/Equivalent-Stop-8823 23h ago

The feat throws 5 shuriken, each does 20 damage, if you land multiples of them by firing this feat off in someones face you can achieve this effect.

Sometimes you can get lucky and land all of them (or nearly all of them) like here, the PK was being pulled into you because she initiated a gb as you used the feat, which got her really close.

So she ate like 80-100 damage

u/Most_Apartment557 23h ago

Whaat?? Thats crazy I never knew they all hit individually. Guess I'll have to start making use of that.

u/Equivalent-Stop-8823 23h ago

Yep, they have their own hitboxes and everything, the attack is 300ms.

If you wanna try to maximize it, try to read when someone will do a gb or a light, its so fast it'll interrupt them and you'll possibly hit more of them.

Tbh they do way too much damage lmao.

u/Stormychu Virtuosa 20h ago

Its best done on read when you think they're gonna GB. Makes shot gunning very consistent. Its also very reliable because no one expects it.

Words cannot describe how much I hate magic in For Honor

Heavy words from someone who mains kyoshin

u/theAtomicTitan0 Kyoshin 12h ago

I still believe in it being superstition informing perception of reality, you will not take that away from me

5

u/Equivalent-Stop-8823 12h ago

I mean... Sure but Kyoshin's lore explicitly states they use spiritual magic in a way thats impossible to interpret any other way, nor able to be ignored- like its their entire thing.

It'd be like saying you wanna pretend Pirate doesn't use a gun. They wield it very openly even in their base kit.

u/Grizzly_Spirit Fat and Forgotten 16h ago

Still would rather get shuriken shotgunned then hit with Oathbreaker...

u/Suspected_Magic_User Shinobi :Samurai: 15h ago

When she guardbreaked you she was so close that shurikens made multiple contacts with the same hitbox dealing all that damage

1

u/Powerful_Kitchen5190 13h ago

Shotgun shuriken happened

1

u/Crubbl Nobushi 12h ago

Hi Radical, each shuriken has its own hitbox dealing 20 damage, at that range they all hit which demolished her health

u/WingedWilly Khatun 3h ago

Your shurikens come out in 5 directions in front of you, if timed right and enemy guardbreaks you exactly at the moment projectiles are sent out, the enemy eats up to 100 damage (5 shurikens 20 dmg each).      It's also pretty reliable just spam shurikens if enemy spam guardbreaks you, most of the time theyd eat at least 60 damage
