It's entirely feasible that a player may use more than a visual cue to trigger a reactionary chamber (making this whole "gotta have good graphics" argument rather pointless). Back in ye olde beta shortly after chamber-blocking was implemented I learned to attempt chambers when I heard the distinct sound at the beginning of a swing. I stopped doing this because a large portion of players will feint by releasing their attack and cancelling, which plays the sound as well, but that doesn't mean it's not applicable still. The only other reason I stopped using that as my cue is because at the time almost all servers ran medium, so if my timing was spot-on for that sound cue I would swing too early and miss. On fastest it worked just fine. The sound plays from the very beginning of a swing, and even if you're relatively close if you had an excellent reaction time you could probably successfully chamber on sheer reaction using that sound as a cue.

Just sayin'.

My post is still there, how awkward! Anyway, great video. Loved the archer kills at the beginning.

If shields are so overpowered how come I kill shield users before their shield breaks? Often in 3-4 exchanges or less.

Hrm.

Anytime I see 'shield is OP' I see a player that has no idea how to actually fight.

Shields still have impossibly wide coverage against melee attacks, require no reaction by the defender, and remove most of the sense of danger from melee fighting. You don't even need to look at your attacker. It's not game-breaking, but I think shield mechanics are one of the biggest things to fix at the moment.

Balance is only one issue of many. Things that are psychologically jarring are probably more important.

Both weapons take a certain amount of skill yes, but the difference between the amount required is huge. I've noticed that whenever shields are thrown into the mix things often become alot more luck based making it near impossible to consistently win.

No, the difference isn't huge. In fact, it's about even once you get halfway decent at manual block. I'm sure you'd make a ****ty turtling shield user. In fact, I'm sure you're a ****ty two handed user as well, since you're complaining.

If you'd like to do a practice match going sword&board against two-hander, I'm up for it. It is not impossible and not even particularly difficult to beat shield users with a two-hander, unless they're Rhade or someone similar.

I haven't played online since 0.860, but I never found it that difficult to kill someone with a shield. I usually use polearms, and I found a skilled two-hander was far more dangerous than a skilled sword-and-shielder. Just remember you have a big advantage in reach with most two-handed weapons - attack them while they're trying to attack you but aren't close enough, and bait them into doing so as much as possible. It can be hard to judge since many weapons seem to have a longer effective range than they visibly should. Still, range is vitally important online, much more so than in SP. I found one handed weapons much less useful since you can't stay in range easily enough.

Spam. Spam spam spam. It works on a lot of people. Hit their shield then immediately swing again in the same direction, and it'll connect most of the time as they're expecting to trade attacks. If they're preparing to swing before you are, though, either turn into your swing and pray or block and try again. Or you can try the dreaded sword reacharound where you spin like crazy and try to hit them in the back. That one I can't stand, but whatever works..

I usually have no problems with shields when using a two hander. I do die often but it's not like I'm not killing anyone. When I do use a shield I will often be less successful in fact.

Once you get them into the pattern of block-attack-block-attack, it becomes easier to throw them off with a feint later. You can also try pulling a kick-slash or trying to stun them with an overhead attack from a heavy 2h weapon. A weapon like the rhodok mauls tends to help against shield users as well.

Feint past their shields. Tends to work most of the time against the majority of players.
