May I ask your guys method of hand to hand fighting badgers, foxes and boars or maybe your UA doing so?

are u guys just getting all the defenses up, punching then running away until u can refresh? I thought foxes and badgers were fast so I am not sure exactly how you guys are doing this with ease

Haven't really tried foxes yet, but im doing not that bad vs bats. The only problem is that I have terribly low agi, so my cooldowns are quite long. Your main defense should be probably Quick Dodge, since it refreshes really fast, and as far as I have seen, all animal attacks are at least striking based. Other than that - good hatchet and a lot of STR for strong Chops.

Initiative points are only for abilities that consumes them or gives some passive benefit too?

Indeed.

Could we get the OP updated with what attack moves animals do?

Such as ants-Sweeping

and someone mentioned what foxes do earlier, same with bats. Would be nice.

I'd actually like the game to show, after you've received a hit, what attack was used. Maybe an ability box that appears and fades out?

Information is nice, currently pvp is being done half blind.

pvp information is not to be shared. Im sure that some high end pvpers are not willing to tell anything.

Can chop be used with a sword, as it's any edged weapon?

Is Watch It's Moves really flatly better than sidestep?

I'd think the sharing of pvp information should be based on the person, and if flameturtle wants to include it in the op he should be allowed to. That said, I'll probably have some pvp info to show soon :twisted:

All fighters should display their last used attack somewhere so you can get info on it.
