Why is this not a perk

#141

If it’s the counter how come all players use it no matter the class? That means anybody can counter a type of play style no matter what this being said only classes like recon should be able to use the knife even then it should be a 50/50 chance of parrying

#142

These forums just make me sad anymore. Nobody wants the Predator to rise to the challenge, they just want a gimme win, because they had to wait 5-10 minutes to play.

#143

So on a success you should only get that success half the time… yeah that doesn’t seem fair.

Parry has already been nerfed for balance, doing more would just be uncool, it doesn’t need it.

#144

Idk man if a good team parrys a pred he’s winded

#145

Yakuza and billy sacrifice their self’s to duel the pred With a knife and parry them

So yes the parry is needed in the game with no perk that removes it ;)

#146

Exactly just take the L like a true warrior and say gg lol

#147

The Pred player has to take some responsibility for how they attack, whether they test the team before jumping someone.

Also as I’ve stated before in this convo, if you’re on PC and I’m on PS4 we’re not talking at the same issue.

Edit - It’s a counter mechanic, it isn’t a special power it’s for overall balance not about a build… it’s not even knife only, I’ve parried with my Assault rifle.

#148

Lol I’m ps4 and pred is a joke I haven’t lost a rando in a bit but when against a team that slightly knows what’s up it gets a bit harder so a class should be who can parry maybe a melee expert or something because with the whole team being able to parry yes the pred should know how to attack when melee but my 7 year old brother killed one of our best preds inna melee he parryed him the first time while stabbing we melted the pred then later on if it wasn’t for him knifing we would’ve lost lmao pred is once again a joke

#149

Parry is more comparable to ADS’ing than a perk, would you want a perk to even ADS?

Edit - I mostly play with random’s, so that’s the balance I see not tournament or team.

#150

How is that comparable at all.

#151

no not really a kinfe would be but not parrying parrying is more comparable to sayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy healing or an ammo kit as it impacts the match in that kinda level

#152

It reflects skill or knowledge our characters are likely to have, if you don’t know how to aim a gun in real life, your likely doing the equivalent of just hip firing, but with a small amount of training, you can know how to aim down your sights.

Parry is just knowing if you interrupt a swing before it gains momentum, hence power, you can save yourself. It means stepping into danger to avoid it. It’s just knowledge though.

#153

I don’t understand how this became of our convo…I play with a good team and the preds a joke when in melee That’s my side 😂

I think you wanted it to be a perk, not sure myself.

If anything, I think a melee FT class should get an auto parry while holding a large melee weapon as a class skill, which open the door to a FT perk. Lol

#155

Yes, but another idea to add Is what about parry percentages on each knife the first knife will be trash and parry 1/4 times randomly and better knives like the last one could have 1/2 chance to parry

#156

It’s unnecessarily complicated…

Something like that could work for the auto parry though… I really want a melee FT now.

Auto parry? The fuck? No. Ew.
Though a melee ft option would be cool.

But no auto parry.
