Rodelero's skill hit box is shit

How did they even tested this character?

Theres no way to determine if the mob in front of you will get hit by its skills.

The normal attack of weapons have greater hitbox than it’s skills.

All its skill shield have different hitboxes and some of them needs to get closer from the other.

The skills are fun, when you combo them right but the hitbox makes it really unfun to play.

The damage is mediocre compared to other sword class, but because of its shitty hitbox this makes it even worse.

Synchro thrusting without spear makes the hitbox so small that it will only hit 1 or 2 mobs that are very tightly close together in a straight line.

Shield bash hitbox is just like 2 tiles in from of the player… Even if you clump mobs together it will not hit the backline even if they are very close to each other. Same issue with shield shoving and slithering.

Compare that to the hitbox of peltasta like Umbo Blow and Rim blow which has a clear circlular and straight hit boxes which has the same maximum hit range.

PS. I’m Wearing a Head costum 1 2 3 with AoE +1 attack if that matters too.

It is quite Ironic swordsman needs to aim more than Archers in this game which is always point and click to them.

The video above shows that I need to position myself time and time again just to be able to hit enemies infront of me.

Honeymeli has a longer melee range compared to other mob that why some of my skills like shield bash won’t hit it without positioning myself literraly in front of the mob.

As someone who spent about 4 months as a Rodelero (albeit a tank character) I gotta laugh at the people who get baited into playing this class due to the promise of Murmillo and this guy’s vids in KTOS: KToS Murmillo PvP

He plays in KTOS which is almost lag-free, it’s only under that kind of environment that he can perform as well as he does in those videos. Rodelero requires you to combo skills such as High Kick > Umbo Thrust > hard hitting skills in order to burst enemies down, and the lag/FPS drops with iTOS potato servers will make this almost impossible for many. That’s half the reason. The other half is his gear / attributes. A quick estimate is around 100m silver to get to his level.

Having changed to the Cata meta, it’s amazing how much better it performs

The practically pointblank range hit box of Rode’s skills is absurd, at the very least they should speed up ShieldCharge and Slithering’s movement speed while active so Rodes can actually put their pointblank skills to use.
