player fencing weapons disarm to ground

Post by Prykor » Tue Jan 31, 2023 11:23 pm

This is some crap. Not sure if it was because I was mid-bash, or due to the r8 weapon, but disarm to ground is a really crap way to lose a rare mid-pk.

Not really a bug, just a low % chance mechanic of fencing blades.

I take it you hadn't seen this before. In the deep, deep, past - fencing blades disarmed 1 handed weapons basically 100% of the time you were hit either to inventory (high chance) or ground (low chance). Trolls had a lot more difficulty back then getting 2 handed axes so a fencing blade user verse a finely axe user was going to be a sweep 100% of the time. They ultimately dramatically reduced the disarm rate but as you see in the log disarm to ground is still a possibility albeit a small one.
