Jump Parrying: Add it on the rules

Perhaps this is written with a grain of salt, or maybe I'm putting the community's feelings to words either way I believe that jump parrying should be banned from Reborn. To me, if we're not allowed to jump away while parried or attack while parried why should we be allowed to bypass animations? If this is allowed why do we even have an animation for normally blocking/parrying if we're just going to bypass that by adding space bar to alt + left click?

Let me know your thoughts and give a good reason for why we should keep it if you dont agree with this, but do us all a favour and think for a moment before disagreeing just because you like using it yourself cos it delivers results.
 
I thought this post was about the ability to back boost like 15 feet if somebody parries you, and you jump, making it impossible to punish. Is that what this is? Its 3 AM and im really not trying to understand this mess of a post

You know how many people would get in trouble you can't just change how you duel that easy. Also it's not that big a deal if your a good duelist you should know the work arounds, I havent played in a while and I still know them.

It is a part of a mechanic we cannot eliminate therefore should not be included in the rules. Admittedly so it is annoying when someone is really good at this but i believe it adds a depth to the combat. I have dueles you a few times you are good but with little things like this and also spinning when parried, holding alt when parried, switching between forms etc is a higher level of fighter.


do not want it to go back to heavy spam.

buff versatile heavy or just retirn it to its former glory. the form is weak now that the heavy is cut in half and the dswing slowed down.

You can learn from a few people how to add the parry hop to your arsenal.

knowledge and skill should not be suppressed but shared.

Ah, who is going to tell him about the Dragonflame technique? The one where u spam light attacks and when you get parried you jump backwards 20 feet so you go unpunished

Did you just get destroyed by someone who did this and now you want it banned or is there a legitimate reason it needs to be a rule

@Okeas I dont even know who @legend 27 is but I did in fact write this after being defeated in a duel with someone who was good at jump parrying, although that person did not have full hp and armor by the end (even if i did he was bulk defensive and therefore heaps of health and armor so that wouldnt be saying much). I thought on it and an hour after decided to write a post to see what the community thought about this because to me it seemed exactly how Iroc said it, "It is a part of a mechanic we cannot eliminate". I see that you all believe its not a problem which I'm fine with, but I dont feel like I should be slandered for my presumably poor dueling skills. After all I didnt write it like a toxic salty player eg: this is fucking trash rediculous breaks the game ban it or im leaving, I wrote it calmly as a question to the public.
