MysticSpade Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 i personally don't like it in duels. even if i can use it i refrain from doin so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudonym Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 Vader used it in his duel with Luke. I don't care either way, just as long as they don't add healing because then it'd turn into one of those never ending DBZ fights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Tahu Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 Well I also don't like it,best for duels is to disable: Heal Protect Lightning Grip Saber Throw Deep cliffs Now that is what I call a good duel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syfo-Dyas Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 It's Canon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FK|FallenOne Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 Saber throw is canon? Why because Vader threw his saber ONCE to get Luke down from a catwalk? You think he used it as a primary attack as it is being used in this game? Especially with the throw, then pull exploit so that it's a guaranteed hit everytime? Sorry, but Vader used it to get Luke down off the catwalk, not as a primary attack to kill him with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elijah Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 I dont really mind it... but i dont play duels Glowstick bashing is not my style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haseco Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 saber throwing in a duel is contradicting the whole idea of one on one combat...in this situation they might as well consider the saber throw as a projectile weapon...theres all the same concepts surrounding it.

Pseudonym Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 I think I'll change my answer. I was in a duel earlier where this guy kept spamming throw and it got annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc Solar Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 I think it's "unrealstic". You should lose your saber 70% of the time. (Like...try throwing your saber at Tavion in SP.) I does too much damage compared to normal swings and hits more effectively (especially if used in combination with pull). Spamming anything is lame --> Spamming throw (or the Bryar) is lame. There is a reason why so many duel servers have throw disabled. I want a duel to be fast and furious, not a throw-contest. It seems that often when you get a good hit in, the opponent turns into a chicken. Every time you swing, he/she throws and backs up. Very frustrating. Personally I hate tossers. On the other hand - why should someone stop spamming just because I don't like it? It's my problem, not theirs. But since the thread-starter asked for opinions, this is mine: Spamming saber throw in (NF)duels = a boring duel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FK|FallenOne Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 I was on a server yesterday. If you're against saber throw, do NOT join the SF|Sanguis Frater duel server. It's ip is 66.150.29.215:27020 First off it's full force, which I don't mind, but not one saber swing was made. Not one. Each and every "duel" consisted of who could pull-kick-throw the best. Not one normal saber swing/move. It was quite annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3- Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 Blueyonder has two duel servers. Saber only and the only forces which you can spend points on are Saber Attack / Saber Defend / Jump. They're pretty much the most popular duel servers in the UK. Think that answers the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
