8ball Posted December 21, 2014 Report Posted December 21, 2014 we all know SB requires a 2 handed weapon. therefore you're losing a whole lot of defense, which plays a HUGE part of pvp. not actually having a shield in pvp, can easily kill you quickly if you're a SinX,better yet any class. I think that's the huge trade off it gets. that's what everyone not understanding. Most spells requires good ping. I have very good connection, to the point GM reported me. The nerf was SOOO horrible i could hardly spam 2 Sonic blow even on LINK.... PLEASE make the spells close to what it was... It would suck to lose a perfectly fine class, that's been the same for awhile, due to cry babies. I suggest to make it possible to spam 3-5 Sonic blows on Link atleast!
Genesis Posted December 21, 2014 Report Posted December 21, 2014 Its all about consistency and practice. When you get the timing down, you will be able to spam 3~5 and more. While testing, we were able to get 10+ sonic blows, one right after the other. It really depending on the timing between clicks.

I've never seen more than 6 or 7, and that's with the people using a program. If it's really possible to do 10(without any sprite edits), that's disgusting. Edited December 21, 2014 by ThePerfectHit
Rayray Posted December 21, 2014 Report Posted December 21, 2014 ^ Well, reading what Genesis put, I am assuming he means that you can cast the next sonic blow AFTER the first one almost instantly if you get the correct timing, it doesn't say that it links all the 10 sonic blows together(which is what usually happens with sonic blow). I could be wrong though.
Opiate Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) i could hardly spam 2 Sonic blow even on LINK.... just letting you know this is a moot point. assassin link doesnt allow you to spam sonic blow faster also while yes sinx does lose a shield while sonic blowing, that's only while they're actually using the skill. they have two of the best defensive skills in the game in back slide and cloak, plus any good player can just swap out a shield instead of facetanking it like a moron Edited December 22, 2014 by Opiate
sirchief Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 yeah right timing, you're already dead before you get that timing or maybe you will be able to get that if the opponent won't hit you back for your character not to flinch
sirchief Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 +1 to this,put it back the way it was before this update,
Rayray Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 The update is not even out for so long, let it settle first, GENESIS himself said that things can be tweaked when deemed too much. The initial nerf of Desperado was tweaked as well. Parry was removed from the Freyr blade, Profs are not allowed to use matk increasing cards like FBH, valk randgris and ws card is nerfed on sinx, super novices got the capes removed, and Thana card do not work on TSS now. Tons of stuff were nerfed before, stop thinking this is an isolated case just for you.
