    So to my full knowledge power fist has been nerfed in a way of speed. Now upon using it in 2 weeks " I took a break" I havnt noticed too much differences with it. It might be a bit slower or dmg is reduced. But is that a netf to it if we can't tell the difference. I still like the first reguardless for AV but infantry wise to me it isn't noticeable.

    Didn't notice any nerf. Only buff.

    The "patchnotes" don't mention the fist nerf. I guess that's going to come with the next patch which will include the actual balance pass for many more items.

    FIst nerf already in, added ~0.3 delay before FA swing. Axe buff is also in.

    Yup, seeing a lot less Fist users now, and the ones I do see are much less inclined to start spamming.
  6. Don't worry. The Orkney klaw is still garbage. OH and they removed sprint attack entirely. Now if you attack while sprinting you stop sprinting, shuffle forward 2 feet then attack.

    I believe you need to be sprinting forward without turning for 1-2 sec before attacking if you want to do a sprint attack... At least that's what I tested yesterday with a banshee. New thing....

    Sprint attacks havn't changed, you just need to tap very quickly, hold it too long and the game thinks you're trying to power attack so it drops you out of sprint, then you release too early to power attack and it defaults to a fast attack.

    As for the Fist, it slowed down a tiny bit and gained the same lunge as the Klaw, whilst the Klaw was sped up considerably and is now pretty much identical to the Fist in terms of attack speed, damage and lunges.

    +1 was typing this out when I just saw Saeritan echo similar stuff.

    It's definitely noticeably slower now. I can actually get a light attack in before theirs kills me in one hit with my ~200ms latency.
