So we all know DBASH is broke for us but anyone else noticed recently since the last patch it has gotten alot worse for us like seriously for me it dosnt even counter light melee and i just get RMB spammed to death if i had one wish from any patch or the next patch is that PLEASE FIX ORK DBASH ITS FUCKING STUIPID HOW WE ARE THE ONLY RACE THAT IT DOSNT WORK
It never works for me as Ork, while it's definitely more reliable as Eldar. As Ork I get d-bashed a lot, but when I try to d-bash myself then the animation starts like 10% of the time. Even when it works then some classes like Shieldbros and JPA seem completely immune to stun. Today before to uninstall I attempted to d-bash a Shieldbro with Power Maul and I ended being stunned, he just kept steamrolling me. I have a ticket pending for this. But in 3 weeks they never even took the time to answer like "Ok we're looking into it". It feels like they do not know how to fix or they simply do not give a fuck (after all there is no fee, we already paid....). The keys work perfectly out of combat, but never in combat. Either this is a problem of animations "priority" or animation speed: incoming attacks are just too fast so the d-bash doesn't even start.
Yeah I've never had the DBash work properly. Even when it does the stun is so short that most of the time I can't even get a Fast Attack in. I just stopped using it all together.
D-bashes work far better as a Slugga and Stormboy since you're fielding heavier melee weapons than the knife. Shoota boys are getting wrecked, but honestly tacticals don't fair much better when I get all up in their grill with my Stormboy. Ork D-bash is more broken than other races because of the animation, but the overall weakness of knives is an issue for everyone, not just Orks. If you want to relive the good old days, grab a Ded Shiney Choppa Blade, slap on Penetration and Lifesteal and go to town. I was able to consistently do well 2v1 and even 3v1 depending on how terrible the marines were at melee.
Dead Shiny is the way to go! All da swordy choppas are the same doe so pick whatever one suits ya. Well da non unique ones anyway. I might change it up and do the dead shiny chain choppa.
No , when I rage quit orks recently I played shield bro for two days dbash works perfectly for marines. I really think its a lag based issue , as of around 8pm gmt things go to crap when we get herded on to American servers , sometimes the attacks give up , rmb seems to fail and dbash just wont operate no matter how fast you spam the key
Its not 100% reliable for anyone, specially vs shields and jumpacks, but ork takes by far the worst part. Even when controls obey and stun procs, recovery animation is so damm long. We are the only race unable to chain a D-bash with a power attack, the enemy has always time to dodge. That means experienced players are not afraid at all of being d-bashed and stuned by an ork, penalty is just a fast attack. And thats not all, our d-bash has less effective range and amplitude, like our melee attacks, roll and practically all animations and movements. I can be stuned by marine´s kick even if im scrolling left or right a bit , but will always send heab blows into the air if the enemy its not afk. We orks have almost no chance of landing a preventive D-bash, we must be under the usual fast attack spam before consider using it.
Doesn't work half the time The time it does work, the stun doesn't give us enough time to even clock a hit in, so the enemy can snap out of it and even dbash you back. To add to that, the LSM/CSM dbash stun range is 3 times as larger. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7EvWgZyw5c&feature=youtu.be
This is a must - see for all those ****** who claim d- bash is a problem for everyone not just for orks.
