[quote=@MelonHead] Yeah, I'm fairly certain there is no basis for the assumption that Brennus 'has no options' other than the fact that his attack is apparently slow and easy to counter, which are interesting points to make on the flip side to an attack you've called 'covering distance fast' and 'high momentum' The thing is, anyone could fight by simply googling someone's attack until they found the closest professional name for it, and then finding the counter and just saying 'my character performs -this-' That's my problem with this so far, that and the slightly unfair manipulations of what I'm posting, and the lack of detail. Hell, I find this whole thing pointless, if I was playing Brennus to character he would never have accepted any of this, right now he'd probably drop his sword and just beat the shit out of Florian hand to hand. [/quote] Oh dear, I've offended you. I'm sorry. I promise I'm not trying to manipulate this fight, and the lack of detail is an issue, I haven't been arena-ing for too long. The attack is fast in execution but can be parried. It's slow to recover from. Does that make sense? The point of this fight was to help me get a hang of how the Arena works though, not playing a situation in character. I have certainly been reminded, repeatedly, to keep details in mind, and will do so in my next fights.
