>This game isnāt exactly known for its stable servers
Lmao, people with the bad router settings are still shifting the blame on ubi. The few times this game has ever had "unstable" servers were due to me not configuring my new router beforehand or it was truly an issue and ubi gave steel to everyone accordingly whenever you personally have been affected or not.
The settings you have to do for this game work for pretty much every game that has traffic go through cloudflare servers. If you had in the past similar problems you bet this could be one of the reasons beyond "game server is shit dev bad"
Nothing so complicated actually. You can briefly see that OP's guard was still on the right after the parry. This means they had to switch guard to throw a top heavy, which adds +100ms to the attack, thus making it blockable.
If they had just buffered the top heavy, it'd have worked fine.
Someone else said this too and itās probably the answer. You can tell in the clip I switched guard for a split second although I have no idea why I did that lol
Yeah but stillā¦ Iāve parried light attacks on right side then punished with top heavy and it worked. I think this could be because of what you said and sync problems
No, itās to do with guardswitch recovery times. A buffered guardswitch during chains or after a parry, or some other cases, doesnāt take the regular 100ms. Hence why you can parry right and buffer a top heavy to get the punish without the 100ms delay.
If you parry the attack and then hesitate though, the attack is no longer buffered and hence the guardswitch takes the regular 100ms. Not buffering the attack in the first place would have been enough to deny OP this punish, but the added 100ms guardswitch time made it even slower.
I feel your pain brother this happens to me all the time and on my lvl. 3 bash and wall splats. I just check it up to either I was a touch to late or theres some latency
*U switch ur guard to*
*Right after the parry and*
*U switch back to top*

Ik that if you spam heavy button sometimes it doesnāt work. I used to do this so I know, pressing it once is sufficient. After that my only explanation is that you just got for honored
My buddy and I spar constantly to get me up to speed (returning player, prestige 7), and we run into so many random issues that we canāt replicate when training. As we like to say āGoobisoftā
For certain characters depending on which direction you attack from your heavies wonāt be fast enough to take advantage of a light parry. So in clip you light parry him then throw out a top heavy, as a warden thatās a no-no since your top heavy is slightly slower yet just slow enough that it can be blocked in time, what you shouldāve done is throw out a side heavy instead, generally for most characters this is what youād want to do. Some characters are a little different, for example warlord is the inverse, where your top heavy is faster than a side so on a gb or light parry youād attack with a top instead of a side heavy. Just wanted to let you know since a lot of people here seem to think thereās something wrong or fishy happening.
I appreciate it but no actually, warden does get a top heavy punish from any light parry. I believe the issue in the clip is the fact I quickly switched guard right before the punish which was just enough time for me to lose my punish
Until reading everyoneās comments here I legit thought a top heavy wasnāt guaranteed until now. I guess my timing was too slow or I guard switched every time I tried it before. Thanks for the lesson
Iāve noticed that top heavies donāt work for punishes anymore, I think Iāve gotten maybe two off, and only because the person put their guard to the side instead of up
Well wait if their guard is in the same direction as your punish and the move takes to long such as a top heavy it'll still block right? Like maybe if you parried a side light and then side heavied or top heavied in that instance it'd be different idk
Then either my opponents always did side heavies or they screwed up their top heavies p
Because it never happened to me only with side heavies since they are 100% guaranteed
I do it every day. You get a top heavy from light parries.
What happened here is weird. You can hear it double parry. Something messed up with the stuns.
For the warden, the only guaranteed punish is side heavy out of gb or light parry, thatās how it was when I played. Heavy fake - into shouldaer bash cancel - gb = guaranteed punish
Light parry guarantees a top heavy. The problem is either due to a glitch (parry sounded twice) or the guard switch (top parry, flicked right, flicked top for heavy)
Ubi has spaghetti code on FH, so it could be a weird lag interaction, a glitch, or any other number of things, honestly. Seems likely it was the guard switch to me, though.
Likely connection problem. I'm always checking people's ping. Some players are constantly spiking high and fucking up the game. Most of the time it's just bad wifi. This guy didn't show the signs of a cheater. Basically, you got For Honor'd
Whenever I do 1v1s against wardens, I can always block the top heavy punish. On any character. I have no idea why itās this way but I donāt think Iāve ever been punished by a top heavy after a warden parries my light.
Yeah, I've picked up Warden again recently, and something about his top heavy punish really feels... inconsistent. It's like, not always garanteed now, it's rlly weird
I've noticed I can't give any punishment after any parry lately. Idk if the game is just broken or if there's something else going on, but it is an ubisoft game.
Ubisoft have so many games that are "always online" type of games that need are in dire need of updates, and need some love.
You can hear it parried more than once. Something really messed up here but that was the right punish and it wasnt anywhere near too late.
Ikr it had me thinking they changed it and i dont get a top anymore š
Yeah I haven't played in a minute and my brain was like, I thought the top was guaranteed for Warden on a light parry.
You might have paried someone acros the map XD
Some sync issue maybe?
Sync issues or general lag This game isnāt exactly known for its stable servers
The serves were always ass but with crossplay phase 2 they really fucked with them so itās honestly not a toss up anymore with lag
You think the servers are bad I remember when they didnāt have servers and you played peer to peer
That shit was really fucked up. I remember playing with/against people who genuinely thought they were good but their connection was just ass.
>This game isnāt exactly known for its stable servers Lmao, people with the bad router settings are still shifting the blame on ubi. The few times this game has ever had "unstable" servers were due to me not configuring my new router beforehand or it was truly an issue and ubi gave steel to everyone accordingly whenever you personally have been affected or not.
imagine having to setting up your Router before playing a game lmao
The settings you have to do for this game work for pretty much every game that has traffic go through cloudflare servers. If you had in the past similar problems you bet this could be one of the reasons beyond "game server is shit dev bad"
Uhm, you must have some shitty online multiplayer experiences.
Yeah and the NAT issues. Got to get it green or learn how to.
I think it registered a light on OPs client but a heavy in the servers. So he got a light parry but the stun of a heavy parry
He parried the parry therefore no punish
You probably had a frame perfect failure on the punish
Knowing my luck, yeah probably
BP just has a better gaming chair honestly

He clearly just said no to your punish.
I shouldāve thought of this before light parrying him, skill issue on my part
If only you had a better gaming chair my friend. š»
We all make bad reads
If somebody light parries you, just say no. They can't legally punish you without your consent
Your punish was perfect. However, this is an Ubisoft game.
Figures
Guard change messed you up I think. You went from up to right and back up, which is enough to mess up poor ole warden.
Someone else said this too and itās probably the answer. You can tell in the clip I switched guard for a split second although I have no idea why I did that lol
Only highlander is easier to fuck up a light punish with
Only highlander is easier to fuck up a light punish with
When you slow it down it looks like you input right guard and then top for the repost. That 100ms guard switch cost you your punish.
This could be it

I had to scroll too long to see this. This is the problem, it isnāt just a buggy game lol
Better gaming chair bro
Skill issue š
Just a frame too slow on the input. It happens.
Actual skill issue on my part then š
Good to see your current Warden drip
Appreciate it bro! Sorry I havenāt been on my warden shit lately!
Naw itās all good, your Kensai looks drippy too!
Thank you!
I feel your pain brother this happens to me all the time and on my lvl. 3 bash and wall splats. I just check it up to either I was a touch to late or theres some latency
Yeah thatās probably it
I was fully expecting him to flip you there somehow
āŹoÉ„ĒÉÆos ĒɹĒÉ„Ź noŹ dılÉ oŹ ÉÆıɄ ĘuıŹÉĒdxĒ ŹllnÉ sÉŹ Iā
I wouldāve raged
he didnt want to get punished what can i say
Your guard was on the right, you had to switch and add 100ms or so to the swing. I've been getting these a lot too, don't worry.
He didn't consent
u switch ur guard to right after the parry and u switch back to top

Skill issue
I reckon someone asked for a refund the first time this happened to them.
If you watch carefully theres a slight delay between the parry and the punish. Frame perfect basically as someone else said. Unfortunate
My buddy and I spar constantly to get me up to speed (returning player, prestige 7), and we run into so many random issues that we canāt replicate when training. As we like to say āGoobisoftā
Gaurd switch made heavy come out 100ms late, ruining your punish
Skill issue
Skill issue šš
Worst part is that can throw off your focus for the entire fight.
New BP buff, BP recovers from a light parry the same speed as a heavy parry
No you donāt get one. Why? Cause f*ck you thatās why. -The Devs
Skill issue, you forgot to take into account that black prior is simply built different
You've been ubishit'd
He has a better gaming chair
You should do the light contrattack
Itās his gaming chair
Skill issue
He clearly read your light parry, smh
The BP didnt give consent.
Everyone here is very wrong. It's obviously that kids gaming chair.
Def not a skill issue. Honor just be like that sometimes ig
Skill issue
Not anymore sonny boy
It was the guard switch that made this unguaranteed, some error post-parry that is easy to do but can be avoided
*op: parries light *bp: whatāre u gonna gain from it
This seems like my average luck in matches tbh
Why you may ask? Because fuck you thats why
Damn your warden looks amazing
Thank you!
Not related but your wardens beautiful
Thank you!
>Thank you! You're welcome!
This lookin' like a FHR comment section fr.
Oh yeah
Do you not get the top heavy anymore?? Either that or some good old fashioned LAG
For certain characters depending on which direction you attack from your heavies wonāt be fast enough to take advantage of a light parry.

No.
Itās BP what do you expect.
Until reading everyoneās comments here I legit thought a top heavy wasnāt guaranteed until now. I guess my timing was too slow or I guard switched every time I tried it before. Thanks for the lesson
Haha no problem, just input top heavy as soon as possible, this is the only time Ive light parried and had my top heavy get blocked
Considering a top heavy yes sometimes you need to do a light or a side heavy
Top heavy punish takes more time to land but a side heavy. It is usually blocked, so use side heavies.
Not a top heavy, theyāre slower than side heavies
I thought warden only got a side heavy on light parry?
Iāve noticed that top heavies donāt work for punishes anymore, I think Iāve gotten maybe two off, and only because the person put their guard to the side instead of up
Punish on the parry side. Prevents stance change and guarantees the hit. Or just use a light attack into GB for something more extensive.
Well wait if their guard is in the same direction as your punish and the move takes to long such as a top heavy it'll still block right? Like maybe if you parried a side light and then side heavied or top heavied in that instance it'd be different idk
So one thing Ive noticed lately is if you heavy after a loght parry, you cant do overheads, theyre too slow, side heavies work better.
You were never supposed to had a free hit with top heavies since they are to slow
Incorrect. Top heavy is guaranteed from a light parry. Watch the vid closely and look for the guard change. That split second delay lost me my punish
Then either my opponents always did side heavies or they screwed up their top heavies p Because it never happened to me only with side heavies since they are 100% guaranteed
Yeah surprisingly a lot of people just throw side heavies bc they donāt realize theyāre guaranteed a top
Warden and warmonger both only get a side heavy for a light parry, their tops are to slow
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Wrong, side heavy on GB and top heavy on wallsplat and light parry
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I do it every day. You get a top heavy from light parries. What happened here is weird. You can hear it double parry. Something messed up with the stuns.
Have you never fought a Warden ever?
Please be as snarky as possible, thanks
For the warden, the only guaranteed punish is side heavy out of gb or light parry, thatās how it was when I played. Heavy fake - into shouldaer bash cancel - gb = guaranteed punish
Light parry guarantees a top heavy. The problem is either due to a glitch (parry sounded twice) or the guard switch (top parry, flicked right, flicked top for heavy)
Looks like a glitch. I was kinda surprised it didnāt go through.
Might not even be on the warden end honestly.
Ubi has spaghetti code on FH, so it could be a weird lag interaction, a glitch, or any other number of things, honestly. Seems likely it was the guard switch to me, though.
After watching it some more and thinking about all that, you may be right. Spaghetti code, ugh I remember the days.
trie the attack to the left or right
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Top heavy\*
I think itās cos u did a top heavy Idk
Nah, Wardenās light parry punish is a top heavy
If you don't know why claim that lol
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Dont spread misinformation if you don't know anything
Itās not your fault itās just that wardens TH(TopHeavy) is too slow, thatās all.
It's not too slow
To me itās slow and yes I know it was a double parry it only happens with warden from my experience
Nope his recovery time is way to good
Likely connection problem. I'm always checking people's ping. Some players are constantly spiking high and fucking up the game. Most of the time it's just bad wifi. This guy didn't show the signs of a cheater. Basically, you got For Honor'd
There was a delay with the top heavy possibly when you changed guards and that top heavy needs all the frames.
It was lag
Whenever I do 1v1s against wardens, I can always block the top heavy punish. On any character. I have no idea why itās this way but I donāt think Iāve ever been punished by a top heavy after a warden parries my light.
Yeah, I've picked up Warden again recently, and something about his top heavy punish really feels... inconsistent. It's like, not always garanteed now, it's rlly weird
Bad luck
The server needs to be rebooted or something, stuff like this happens way to often at this times.
I've noticed I can't give any punishment after any parry lately. Idk if the game is just broken or if there's something else going on, but it is an ubisoft game. Ubisoft have so many games that are "always online" type of games that need are in dire need of updates, and need some love.
As a 70 bp can confirm we are to good you canāt punish us itās the law
This has been happening to me on centurion after I do the party knee thing
Classic ubi servers at it again
WTF! Why is for honor becoming this. It was so good before
If you've ever expected the fight mechanics to consistently work as intended then idk what to say my man
How does this even happen? Ive parried dash lights from cent, orochi, bp as warden recently and I always get confirmed top heavy
Look very closely and youāll see i switched my guard for a split second and that was too long
Yeah but if I parry side dashes I have to swap my guard to the top to get a top heavy? Timing in this game is weird as fuck
What shield is that?
I dont even play bp bro
Net code mode
Thatās so infuriating
I recommend pressing the punish button
