The complex sword fights in For Honor are neither easy to learn nor to master. But fortunately, our colleague Refaser has summarized ten particularly helpful tips for beginners in a video.
For Honor focuses on a complex gameplay of carefully coordinated attacks and defensive actions to simulate engaging melee combat. Anyone who just mashes away like a berserker is of no value, even as a berserker. Even the wild Viking brutes require finesse and good timing! But how can one improve in For Honor when constantly getting beaten down?
For Honor – The Secrets of Gameplay
Those who want to become a master of melee combat in For Honor need to bring a lot of patience, skill, and practice. According to YouTuber Refaser, the “Advanced Training Mode” is especially suited for this. There you can learn the vital secrets of gameplay and try them out on freely programmable bots. These include:
- Fighting against multiple opponents, as a former cook and now pro gamer has impressively proven
- Exploiting the terrain (even if some players find it dishonorable)
- Guard breaks, parries, and counters
- Optimal use of combos
