:uhm: Can anyone explain me why, while dueling, some ppl can strike you with a single hit and kill you (or almost) immediatly. I'm not talking about specials, or having no hp, or saber damage incresed or even some kind of bug. I see this constantly, only with a few players (red stance good players, I know) but they re not doing anything diferent than the usual and I can't even do it with the enemy standing still. Am I missing anything here?:confused:
damage is sensitive to hit area. Getting a lightsaber between the eyes hurts a LOT more than getting one of your toes cut.
Nop, theres no such thing as hit in the head or in the arms, jk3 strikes points are almost random . what u have to do, that most people do, is wiggle your saber left to right while striking so u can hit more than once in ur target, u can increase the chances and do it easely by changing your cg_yawspeed to a higher value. By the way this is considered cheating by some , but even those "some" do it. :cool:
There is a MP one hit kill mod over at http://jediknight2.filefront.com/file/JK3_Multiplayer_OneHit_Kill_Mod;32421 You may be a victom of it's use.
if you want to play jk3 and do 1 hit killd why not just get a moded saber? yaw'ing is stupid but i dont classifie it as cheating... its not a hack or nothing
if you're playing on a JA+ server the damagaes might be set higher or even lower, it all depends what server and mod everythings running on.
