Hi, so i tried to gather information on peltaste post patch, but there doesn’t seem to be any up-to-date information on them, and i lack the levels to properly test them out. So i’m creating a thread to ask about them.
How are peltasta’s offensive skills now? Especially Shield Lob (i’m curious)
Guardian / High Guard worth investing points into?
If I’m going for Murmillo, which pelt skills are recommended?
Thanks!
Back to a single hit with no bonus modifier. RIP.
Worth every point now that defense is easier to get. More defense = more defense gained from guardian. Also, free evasion. The attack reduction is fairly low nowadays too.
Didn’t change much iirc. Still need to put points into it for the damage boost to Umbo and Rim.
As for some other changes, C guarding now has a 4 second downtime after your previous guard stance ended, and you can be hit through your guard which cancels the stance. In other words it’s REALLY annoying to use now since you can’t just spam it versus boss attacks while still attacking inbetween. Most bosses attack faster than every 4 seconds lol.
You can use C guard without a cooldown in PvE content. The C guard you are talking about is only in TBL.
Eh, the coodown is also in towns…which would suggest the cooldown is everywhere. Seeing as town =/= TBL.
RIP Peltasta 2016-2017.
It’s also in normal maps now. I’m like, ingame right now, in a regular map, trying to spam C, but it wont let me. 4 seconds “CD”.
I don’t even do TBL so there’s no way I would’ve noticed if it didn’t apply outside of it haha.
Yea, I think this could be another oversight by IMC but regardless, pelt is ■■■■■■ with this re-balance, nerfed every which way.
But still, this is definately a nerf intended for TBL.
Dont forget the 3s duration of Armor Break from Umbo Thrust now. Not even good for party utility anymore :\
