burning and poison weapons are a crutch

?

Should being attacked by a poison/burning weapon kill you instantly and ignore combat rules?

  1. Yes, i should be able to kill people by lazily fast attacking while they block every attack

  2. No, why am i getting poisoned through a shield? it makes no sense

    So here's part 2

    About 30 seconds in you can see me fast attack the dude's dbash, he doesn't get poisoned until I land a strong attack. Then skip to about 3 minutes in and you can see me clang with his fast attack, also it does not poison him. Everything in between those two points is basically me trying to get someone to initiate combat with a fast attack so I can clang, pay no mind to it.

    Reminder that nerds who use poison weapons can't get by without free damage. Git gud.

    Same goes with anyone wielding a smart pistol.

    EDIT: Correction: Same goes with anyone being wielded by a smart pistol.

    Well not really considering it helps fight against shit like laggy little knife eared assholes who can land magical d-bash hits through walls from over 10 meters away.

    The fact that you say a poison weapon is less of a crutch (or imply it) than a smart pistol only shows how arrogant you really are.

    Ahahahahahahaha.
    No.
    Just no.
    I don't even need to elaborate. Not in the slightest.

    No, you do, but you refuse to do so. Hey, I call it like I see it.
    "Hey, I know this sword is bugged to do damage through parries and clangs, but you're using an auto-aim pistol with 25% less damage."

    wat?

    Before you call anything like "this sword is bugged and does damage through parries and clangs", I hope you have some relevant and actual proof of what you say, don't you?

    Meanwhile smartpistols still do headshot on the second shot fired (because recoil) and ... require some true skills to be fired... such skills

    You agreed earlier about there being a bug with poison ailment hitting through clang.

    As for the other dumbshit that Scorps can do, backstabbing OHKOs. Leave it to Bamco to crowbar that stupid shit in.

    The Lashsword does not poison through clangs, only on clean hits like every other weapon. So far, the evidence delivered has deduced that ailments are not applied through clangs or d-bashes, but only actual hits as they are supposed to.

    Whoever keeps preaching that these weapons apply ailment through clangs is misinformed at best, knowingly perpetuating a lie at worst.

    Regardless, it's something that is entirely unnecessary. I'm fine with maybe letting Apothecaries and Doks have poison attacks, and Stream of Corruption, but other than that, it just needs to go and stay go. Same with AG heat ailment. Really, any ailment.
