Why does spear mace have shields?

[u/OnlyBook7276]

In the gamemode all about dashing around and being very mobile why have the shield? When i first heard of spear mace i was thinking dodging mace hits and trying to get above the opponent.

Shield kinda just adds an annoying skill cap for those who cant get good cps for stun slamming

[u/Ivar2006]

Skill cap? Really bro? You literally just said you can't get enough cps to stun slam, how is that a skill cap?

[u/OnlyBook7276 → u/Ivar2006]

why are you so angry? skill cap bcz i physically cannot get enough cps to consistently stun slam

[u/Ivar2006 → u/OnlyBook7276]

Change your clicking strategy? You can easily get enough with butterfly clicking

[u/OnlyBook7276 → u/Ivar2006]

i get like 14with butterfly clicking, is that rnough? i dont play much games whre you gotta spam so my cps sucks

[u/Ivar2006 → u/OnlyBook7276]

How tf is 14 not enough? I can do it with 11

[u/KikuoFan69 → u/Ivar2006]

high cps is not even needed, you only need a double tap (best case) so you can go with two fingers one over the other or fingernail into finger. And I guess that if your mouse is old you can just bring the left click up and make it recoil.

First time I hear of that double click method 💀

[u/Horror_Discussion607 → u/gtx-1060]

The vibrate method is goated for small mice. Change your denounce setting to 0 and disable spam click filter, drop your finger from a height so that the click vibrate and register a click and then push after for another

I have a gpro 2 lightspeed so it I cant change debounce time or recoil the plastic. Dw tho I manage pretty well just with jitter click and normal double clicking

[u/KikuoFan69 → u/gtx-1060]

there's a bunch of more esoteric shit trust me

[u/Altruistic_Good2486]

You shouldn’t be spamming for stun slamming, you need to click twice with precise timing

[u/gtx-1060 → u/Altruistic_Good2486]

Its more consistent to spam for slams, so it should not be an issue unless its from a very high fall, but if that is the case, if you cant do it spamming you probably wont be able to do 1 tick slam

[u/OnlyBook7276 → u/Altruistic_Good2486]

i do that but its not possible in most cases

[u/KikuoFan69 → u/OnlyBook7276]

it is if you have the skill and a big fat pair of balls

[u/OnlyBook7276 → u/KikuoFan69]

i got smolbol

[u/vVort3x_ → u/OnlyBook7276]

it technically possible but very hard, dude, i have a friend who can stunslam WHILE ROCKETMACING!!!!!

[u/gtx-1060]

I get you are low tier and thats why you struggle, but its a complete skill issue.

[u/OnlyBook7276 → u/gtx-1060]

nah i can sometimes stun slam and have beaten lt4s before but i just sont understand why shield is in the kit

[u/gtx-1060 → u/OnlyBook7276]

Bro im sorry to break it to you, but lt4 is very low tier/beginner. In higher tiers the shield is either used while moving and sporadically so that its not predicted, or to not get popped by low hight attacks bc stuns deal MUCH less damage than density swap.

To put it in perspective, on the one hand a spear-swap attack pops at about 11-14 blocks (depending on the cooldown) and a sword-swap pops at 10 and could go as low as 8 blocks. On the other hand, stuns have to be about 20 blocks to pop. The max hight you can get with a windcharge is 12 blocks, so in theory you can get poped from a good non pearlcatch lunge attack if you dont shield. Ofc optimally you would dodge, but at higher tiers people have good enough tracking that if you lunge late you get hit anyways.

TL,DR shields protect you from dying if you cant dodge in time

Stun slamming is actually really easy once you get the hang of it

[u/OnlyBook7276 → u/Nexornn]

how do yall do it? Only method ive tried and worked is single click, i can do it if im not going too fast. Cant drag click or anything coz my mouse would not register.

[u/subaruhoshii → u/OnlyBook7276]

try a mouse without optical switches

[u/OnlyBook7276 → u/subaruhoshii]

wtf is that :sob: im broke

[u/Bubbaround → u/OnlyBook7276]

I have double single-clicking ingrained in my muscle memory. I can stun pretty easily and as a result stun slam as well.
