yes i am dodging, i had that happen to me often so i check a lot...I'm sure you would have checked it, but I have got to ask since it happened to me!
Are you sure you're dodging? I found myself standing up on all 8 rounds after the new update. Got instant KO'd ofcourse(got shot all 8 times)....haven't tried the new dueling system since.
my point is charisma duelists werent overpowered in the first place, so why change it?
you can ask amazing duelists like
-spirit warrior.
every time he dueled me with his pure dexterity ranged build he absolutely caned me.
-cbug
resist melee duelist also caned me every time and she is 12 levels lower than me.
charisma had no chance against these 2 builds. in attack OR defense.
so why nerf charisma?
As as resistance dueler I havent noticed ANY difference between hits/dodges etc. Seems fine to me.
Just as an experiment I removed all SPs from appearance and moved them to dodging/aim/shooting, all my SPs are in those 3, I'm pure dexterity. Made no difference against resistance but against regular I'm now being beaten by players that couldn't get close before I moved those SPs. Conclusion.... you still need appearance for attack.
Also I now have an extra 50 SPs in shooting but it has not made any difference at all to the amount of HP I hit resists for per hit.
show us 2 duels both after update, against the same player, one before you moved sps, and the other after.
im very curious!
I assume the changes were intended to balance dueling in response to records like this:
Chatting so some of the other people on W11 - I think the duelling stances appear to be more important than they were before. Anyone else noticed that? Maybe the comment about dodging being nerfed would line up with this a bit?
It seems both you and Desi would be correct. The new duelling system is configured to be disabled by default, and the tech lead just reviewed the update script and confirmed there was nothing that could enable the new system. Placebo effect it would seem...
Or perhaps not. Today's ninja update should have resolved the "negative skills bug" once and for all, which was causing some players to lose in excess of even 10 attribute points if they owned the fancy soft leg guards. Perhaps this was making a difference on your duels
