Today, May 30th, the servers for For Honor are down. A serious exploit is to be fixed.
For a few days now, the “One Hit Kill” glitch has been making the rounds in For Honor. The Warden performs a guard break and then takes down the opponent with just one hit. We will refrain from providing a specific guide at this point.
Although this glitch is said by some users to have been in the game for a while, it has only recently become public. Ubisoft reacted immediately and declared it an exploit over the weekend. In other words, anyone using the glitch must expect penalties. With the first report, there will be a warning, and after three reports, one will be banned for three days. Because with this exploit, one can gain unfair advantages and significantly disrupt the gaming experience of honest players.
A fix for the “One Hit Kill” exploit is coming
Now Ubisoft has been able to create a fix for the exploit, which will be implemented today during maintenance:
- On May 30th at 2 PM, the servers will be taken down. On Xbox One, the downtime is 10 minutes, while on PS4 and PC it is 45 minutes. For the latter two platforms, a routine maintenance will also take place at the same time, causing the downtime to be longer.
However, this fix has a catch. While it addresses the exploit issue, it simultaneously introduces several bugs. These affect the guard break and subsequent attacks outside of guard mode. Incorrect attack stances can occur here. For example, with the Raider: during light attacks, he assumes a stance upwards instead of to the right. Affected are the Raider, the Lawbringer, the Conqueror, the Berserker, and the Nobushi.
According to Ubisoft, it’s more important to fix the exploit quickly than to look for solutions to these smaller bugs. These will be addressed in a future update instead.
