Crozame.4098 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 1) build not that good.2) using dagger 3 right after shield 4, especially when shield 4 lands, is bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In most cases I was using it more for the immobilize rather than the interrupt as part of my burst. Now that you've mentioned it I'm thinking it might've been a waste.So for example, at 2:03 it was a mistake 'cause he had dodged away same thing at 4:02 and 8:37; another mistake at 2:45, as the enemy had stability.On the other hand, I use it at 4:24 for the immobilize to land aura slicer. At 7:01, the immobilize from disrupting stab had been cleansed so I went for the shield bash without expecting him to dodge. At 7:54, shield bash interrupts his GS skill #2 and disrupting stab immobilizes to make sure I land bull's charge (he still had a full stamina bar). At 9:37, he had blocked disrupting stab and dodge rolled right after, so that shield bash was smart as people don't usually dodge twice in a row.I did notice those mistakes though and will improve that, so thanks for the feedback!

However, your vid topic suggests that you are try to give suggestions or recommendations to new players. In this case, might start with a better build. In some of your builds.2) They are stunned, and hence cannot dodge, why follow a dagger 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shao.7236 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Since shield 4 after dagger 3 is the main arguement here, yes it sounds counter productive but a LOT of people do it anyway, at least on specs that have no stability after stunbreaking, it puts them in a really bad spot which is a viable strategy in the end.
