Has anyone seen a PA get blocked?

[poi]

Has anyone actually seen a PA get blocked when your guarding someone else? (or when your the one being guarded)

Has anyone actually seen a PA get intercepted by a warrior who has intercept on you?

 

[Dook_Pug]

I've always been under the impression that it only gets blocked if the PA is failed.

I could be wrong though...

 

[old.Downanael]

Once on thid with my shade long time ago some warrior did interccept my pa.

Once i did fumble my pa too,now that must be clumsy

 

[Azal]

I've had a PA intercepted before...only once that I remember though

 

[VidX]

Swear I have had a few PA's on my blocked while sitting at DC, both as Usp and Neverending.

Not sure though, will SS it if I see it.

I have PA'd somoene, and it has been intercepted, for 1 damage + 1 damage crit. (it said You perform Perforate Artery correctly (+487903158917))

Wont get many Intercepts going, doubt many tanks use it too often or can be arsed to stick near casters and help them out , even though its bugged and overpowered in RvR atm

-Performing a successful Guard or Intercept no longer causes an interrupt to a caster who is guarded.

even more powerfull after patches...

 

[Sharma]

i have parried PA before and proceeded to beat the shit out of the little bluecon NS

 

[Derric]

What about that "PA can't be blocked,parried or bladeturned" ?

 

[Sagba]

100% sure I have intercepted PA for caster many times. Blocked, no idea.

 

[Fafnir]

Well i dunno, i was jumped by an infil, got the text that i've blocked the attack, but still i got bled effect. reported it have not see it since then. About 6 months ago.

And i remember i had my warrior when he was lvl 28 ran naked to apk, and an infil there attacked stealthed from behind, i evaded, i put my shield on, and blocked 2 attacks, ran to amg infil stealthed, came to amg, another infil jumped me from behind i evaded that too, then i was nuked to death. Wish you could evade nukes.

 

[ulukin]

Have had a PA intercepted a couple of times also had one absorbed by bladeturn not so long ago.

 

[pudzy]

Ive had a pa intercept once before.... he wishes he hadnt now tho

Poor git

 

[succi]

Ive had a friar evade my pa ;/

 

[old.windforce]

blocked bloodied his PA on excal road once when i was level 48 or so. 6 months ago or so

 

[Glyph_mid]

As Derric said, you cant avoid in ANY way a success PA, if you evade, parry, block the assasin have failed his PA.
But you can intercept it

 

[Chandelen]

i remember Succi atacked me from stealth once from the front and i parried the first hit. Could have possibly been a PA as the hit was lined up well.

 

[stafford]

ive parried a PA bfore little kobby SB
it ran

 

[Glyph_mid]

Once again, you cannot avoid a successful PA, no matter how hard you try cheating the sourcecode, you still cant

 

[SilverHood]

i've blocked failed PA's though

/cheer at rhodry

Also evaded PA with my sb

or evaded a failed PA

Pretty sure a failed PA results in a message of one sort or another, have a SS of me attepting to perform pa - <no messages> -
Blow was absorbed by magical barrier.

maybe just for some reason there was no failure message.

 

[Myddrin]

Had a PA blocked tonight when a attacking a NP Luri, simply because I am a gimp. Shame really, those Luris fall apart really easliy......little cheap made in Taiwan mana bomb sluts!

 

[liste]

i've NEVER had a successful PA blocked/evaded/BT'ed in my 80ish days /played. That is as the game is intended.

If you blocked it or whatever, the PA failed. Simple.

<There is always room for bugs. A few rare cases could have happened obviously, which i dont doubt - PA is buggy sometimes>

 

[old.camillo]

Blocking/Evading PA´s was possible in earlier DaoC versions, but has been fixed with 1.39.

 

[zapzap]

When you hit someone and the attack is fended, it doesnt say You perform a perfect yadayada and the blow misses, it just say, "you missed!", same with the PA.

Xest, if you have evaded something, then it was a failed PA, you cant really see if it is a PA or a normal attack for that matter

 

[Falcon]

Well it was more the "HTF did you evade my PA" in IRC that gave it away

 

[Sigurd]

No reason why we shouldn't be able to block PAs, it would certainly balance the game more (assassins would barely ever be able to kill tanks)

 

[Blood]

i have had a pa evaded by a blue con minstrel.... i immideately logged off in shame
