People be right about just poking them as they come in. Parry got ruined and even dodge is garbage, imo.

Better to go with a big stick and just cut everything down mindlessly. Why pay the stamina+HP costs to defend when you can just take the hit and be basically better off. Even better you can just poke it all to death cause it knocks them back too. Think about how fast you can kill and that HP+stamina cost compared to dodge, parrying, attacking and that HP+stamina cost (you probably had to let stamina recover).

I like what they did for tower shields, i guess. Giving bad.. i mean amazing people that underscored in real life reflex stats the ability to play frontline (dammit, almost got banned for being "mean" or "insensitive" (maybe racist too).

Pretty sure they'll remove the resists so ppl can just archer everything from a distance.
