Counterattack

How is supossed to work this tactic?

You only atack after you are attacked? You atacked normally and in top of that after you are attacked?

You are supossed to get any defense bonus (for been waiting for the enmy atack? Or any atack bonus (as enemy after atacking may be misspositioned to properly defend)?

Just wanted to know because I couldnt find much info myself.

Thanks in advance.

The glad waits to be attacked and then attacks back. So it is a kind of one for one with your one being last. Not a good strategy against 2H glads but great against speed rage. Pretty sure you get a defensive bonus as well.

you also can circumvent initiative penalties. Being a dunder with maces and getting the 2nd swing in a match against a dagger weilding sniveller on crack is kinda OP :P

Yep. This can help a lot low agility or initiative (for other reasons like race or slow weapons) glads. Been able to strike as much as an opponent using fast weapons while you use slower ones feels a bit unbalanced as apocalyse said xD. The enemy loses all the advantages of using fast weapons xD

Thanks both of you.

Thing is you need to set it on the right activity level, if you don't match the opponents activity properly the strategy can backfire ;)
