I just don't get it, im lvl 41 now, i think i double hit maybe 1 in 5 attempts with 41+10 h2h. Uthgard has no working WS so every enemy u fight regardless of class is almost capped in deffense! On top of this savage hits NOTHIHG with a shield YES even druids/mincers/clerics laugh at me, may as well save my endu and swing unstyled. It appears svs's are a bit of a joke atm, i think it would be fair to grant svg CD/DW/LA penetration mechanics vs shield users at least until WS is fixed. atm its joke a fat joke

Well since middies seem to be unable to try out new tactics I just give you one advice for free.
As a savage you are not part of the assist train. You are a freelancer killing BM's or going for a support char while the Hero / Pala is busy vs 2 zerkers.
Ask your skald freelancer for which target he goes and you pick the other supporter. But please dont tell anyone.

you have to kite guard.


its bs, and one of the larger known bugs here, but AFAIK there is no fix coming.

Still Savage counts as 1 Hand Weapon and that's why it got blocked easier

couts as 1 hand, has no defense penetration and for whatever reason (custom change + lag maybe) you can black/parry/evade the rear arc on uthgard too (watch vashnaii's video to see this), so there are many reasons that savages on uthgard get blocked out the ass.

guard is 360deg fyi

yup, and so is the person who is being guarded's parry/evade/block under certain conditions. stacks nicely, especially if you run in tight circles with mouseturn.

Then please ltp. As I mentioned above you will always fail if you hit a guarded enemy. It can't stack nicely if you play like you should and attack the NON guarded supporter/light tank.

I think he gets that already based on his first reply to the OP.

ya really, plus light tanks in albs and hibs both have access to guard themselves, making his last comment somewhat silly.
