Warriors! We're back with another addition of the Warrior's Den Recap. We have a lot to cover from the February 18th Warrior’s Den, so let’s get started!




We are proud to announce that on March 11th, For Honor will be entering its 5th year, The Year of the Covenants!

Some years have passed after the events of the Battle of the Eclipse and the battle still rages on between the Order of Horkos and the Chimera Alliance. Both covenants are at a stalemate with no signs of either side gaining the upper hand anytime soon. With their forces diminishing, there is an abundance of resources. Both sides use this to their advantage and throw celebrations to attract new recruits and further spread their influence, and ideals, among the warriors of the land.

In the Year of the Covenants, we dive deeper into Horkos and Chimera’s values and ideals. We will see how they deal with hardship and disaster while war rages on between them. Their story will continue to unfold over the course of 4 new seasons each with new themes, a Battle Pass, and exciting events. Year 5 will also see 2 new heroes entering the roster with their own rich backgrounds and fighting styles.

As the year unfolds, be sure to keep an eye out from us for official news on what is to come.




Warriors: we’d like to introduce you to a new, special kind of Knight. Do you remember Drop Attack Wardens? We’ve now met a Knight who is even more obsessed with Drop attacks. Shovel Drop attacks.

That’s right, Shovel Knight has come to For Honor! The Jump On Shovel Emote and three Illustrious Outfits are just what you need to strike fear into the hearts of your enemies. Fear of Shovel Justice!

• Jump On Shovel Emote for all heroes
  
• Stalwart Plate Illustrious Outfit for all heroes
  
• Rodent Regalia Illustrious Outfit for all heroes
  
• Ornate Plate Illustrious Outfit for all heroes

The new Cobalt Material is available for all heroes! Whether your inspiration comes from the sky, the ocean, or Shovel Knight’s resplendent armor, the Cobalt material can take your fashion to the next level.



We hope you enjoyed the Warrior’s Den (from home)!

Both teams battle to control the Forge and use its fully-powered Draconite Scythe to defeat the Draconite-empowered enemy leader.

• New “Cycle Targeting” option added.
  
• This allows players to “Cycle” through multiple nearby enemy heroes, allowing the player to Cycle targets to a nearby 3rd or even 4th enemy hero.
  
• This behaviour is off by default. To enable this behavior, go to the Options>User Interface menu and ensure “Enable Cycle Targeting System” is checked.
  
• Please see our blog for details.

• We have added a bookmarking system in the Heroes menu, to make it easier for you to find your favorite customization items.
  
• Outfits
  
• Paint Patterns, Symbols and Embossings
  
• Ornaments, Materials and Color Palettes
  
• Armor and Weapon looks
  
• Executions, Emotes, Signatures and Effects

We really want players to be able to explore the fashion of their characters in For Honor, and we know that the number of items players can own can quickly be overwhelming. The bookmarking feature will allow you to sort out your favorite customization elements to easily find them back later down the road, or help you thematize your loadouts for instance!

• While locked onto an opponent, guard break attempts with a minion or pikeman in the way will now bump them out of the way, greatly reducing the odds of accidentally guard breaking them (FH-89)

Zone Attack

• Is now Enhanced
  
• Now counts as a Heavy Attack when parried
  
• 1st hit now causes a Medium hit reaction (up from Light)
  
• 2nd hit now feints 100ms before Parry window
  
• 2nd hit can now soft feint to Dodge at feint timing
  
• 2nd hit can now soft feint to Guard Break at feint timing
  
• 2nd hit is now Unblockable if Peacekeeper is locked on to an opponent suffering from Bleed
  
• Zone Attack 2nd hit recovery is now 700ms (down from 1000ms)

These changes ensure Peacekeeper’s Zone Attack remains an effective tool. In addition to the Testing Grounds changes, we have also adjusted the first hit granting a Medium hit reaction ensuring that Peacekeeper is safe when feinting the 2nd hit as well as lowering the recovery to ensure she is frame advantaged when landing the 2nd hit.

Dagger Cancel

• Dagger Cancel now has 400ms of hit recovery (down from 700ms)
  
• Dagger Cancel can now cancel its recovery with a Dodge at 333ms

This enables Peacekeeper to be frame advantaged after landing a Dagger Cancel and lets her continue her offense when it lands, while letting her also cancel the recovery with a dodge to ensure it can be used more safely in group fights.

Heavy Attacks

• Each Heavy Attack now deals 2 more damage than before
  
• This includes Dodge Attacks
  
• Heavy Finishers gain Unblockable if Peacekeeper is locked on to an opponent suffering from Bleed

The change to damage ensures that Peacekeeper is still slightly above the curve in damage without being overboard like it was in the Testing Grounds. The change to Heavy Finishers also gives her extra synergy with her Bleeds, which lets her loop back into Bleed if one of its options successfully lands.

Deflect

• Deflect is now performed with the Heavy attack button instead of the Light attack button

Many heroes share inputs with their Deflect follow-ups as well as their Dodge Attacks – this change was made to ensure that Peacekeeper can always perform the appropriate follow-up.

• Heavy Finishers and Heavy attacks from Hidden Stance are now Undodgeable

These changes ensure that Nobushi has a mix-up with her Undodgeable Heavies and Kick, letting her apply pressure to opponents in 1v1 scenarios.

• Advancing Thrust now chains to Heavy Finishers

Nobushi should now be able to pressure with her mix-up from Advancing Thrust since it can now also chain to Heavy Finishers.

Zone Attack

• 2nd hit can now be soft feinted into Kick, Heavy Finishers and Dodge
  
• Stamina costs have been adjusted to 20 for 1st strike, 20 for 2nd strike and 10 for feint (was 40 for 1st strike, 20 for 2nd strike, 0 for feint)

Nobushi’s Zone Attack can now be used to initiate pressure with mix-ups in its second part, and the lowered stamina cost should help when using her in the lane where she can clear minions efficiently.

Sidewinder

• Now branches to Heavy Finishers
  
• Chains to Kick and Retreating Viper at 400ms (down from 500ms)
  
• Cancels its recoveries into Dodge and Hidden stance at 400ms (down from 500ms)

Much like Advancing Thrust, Sidewinder now enables her Kick/undodgeable mix-up, and the improved chaining speeds should help her avoid damage and contest the minion lane more safely.

Hidden Stance

• Now costs 12 stamina to enter (down from 24)
  
• Can no longer apply backwards movement to Top Light from Hidden Stance

Kick

• Now hides its indicators for the first 166ms, making the indicators visible for 400ms

With this change, Nobushi’s Kick becomes a 400ms Melee attack, which is unreactable to most players.


Corruption Blade

• [Adjustment] Increased the cooldown to 90 seconds (from 75)
  
• [Adjustment] Decreased the active time to 8 seconds (from 15)

• [Adjustment] Improved the color of the Revenge Gauge in colorblind modes to ensure it can be properly distinguished from players’ emblems

GENERAL

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused Gryphon, Aramusha and Lawbringer’s attacks to be parried by an external ally that was in the middle of a parry (FH-1053)

Kensei

• [Bug Fix] All of the Zone Attack Strikes now cause Medium Hit Reactions (from Light)

This ensures Kensei is no longer unsafe on Hit/Block.

Lawbringer

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the animation to be missing on blocked Top Heavy into Top Light (FH-818)
  
• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Lawbringer to be out of range of attacks after a Sprint Attack

Nobushi

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the animation of “Kick” and “Viper's Retreat” from chained Light to be missing on Bad Block (FH-925)

Shaolin

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Shaolin's Left “Elegant Lotus” to costs 9 Stamina instead of 12 (FH-959)
  
• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Shaolin's “Bounding Blossom” and “Astonishing Blossom” to become parryable and lead to the regular punish timings after a successful Superior Block (FH-667)

Jiang Jun

• [Adjustment] Jiang Jun's Dou Shi's Choke will no longer unbalance opponents that become Out of Stamina due to the slap's Stamina damage at the end of the move (FH-330)

Black Prior

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Black Prior's “Bulwark Counter” to still deal 40 Stamina Damage after the CCU (FH-879)

Gryphon

• 
  
• [Bug Fix] Gryphon now has 300ms to input a Light in the same stance after a Light Opener Hit to flow into Light Combo [up from 200ms].
  
• [Bug Fix] When parrying an attack, Gryphon will no longer buffer the follow-up attack without any inputs from the player, it should now be easier to not do anything after a Parry if desired (FH-1051)
  
• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Gryphons Side Light to not input a back walk movement

BOT

[Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused Rank 2 and 3 Peacekeeper and all Viking Bots, (aside from Berserker), from appearing as random Bots in matches (FH-799)

ONLINE

[Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused players' NAT types to be showing up as unknown (FH-786)
[Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that could cause players to enter matchmaking with a group larger than the game mode limit

USER INTERFACE

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Valkyrie's “Otherworld Skull Helm” to have skin tone inconsistencies (FH-712)
  
• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Warlord’s "Solaris Helm" to have a stretching texture near the mouth (FH-689)

Hello Warriors,

Tales of Rebellion will be returning for the Part III! This event starts on Thursday, January 7th. Get ready to participate in all three activities and use the final version of the Draconite weapon to defeat the Order of Horkos. The rebellion will last until January 28th.



Here is a recap of the three activities:

RESCUE : Capture points to move forward while protecting Ilma, the blacksmith. Conquer the map back from the Warmongers!

PILLAGE : Kill minions to gain Draconite crystals and bring them back to the deposit zone to gain points. Secure 1000 points before the Order of Horkos does to win.

OVERTHROW : Defend the blacksmith while she forges a Draconite weapon. Use the exotic weapon to defeat the Horkos leader.

Players have the opportunity to earn 30 Tiers of gear and loot including a new Battle Outfit, Emblem Outline, Ornaments, and a Chimera Mood Effect. There will be also new weapons to loot!

We’ll see you on the battlefield!

After patiently waiting and sipping on your favorite holiday beverage of choice with Gryphon, the Frost Wind Parade is finally here!

Starting today December 17th, until January 7th, For Honor’s limited-time holiday event Frost Wind Parade is live.

Throughout the entire event warriors will once again be able to enjoy Ice Brawlers, a game mode in which players Brawl on a sheet of ice that breaks over time. To be victorious, Warriors will need to vanquish their foes while at the same time being careful not to fall off the ever-shrinking icy battleground.

During the event, players will have the opportunity to loot holiday-themed battle outfits, mood effects, and ornaments from random drops at the end of all matches during the event. Warriors can also purchase exclusive Illustrious Outfits and Executions inspired by the holiday gift giving spirit.

Go forth warriors, polish your warmest armor, sharpen your favorite weapon, and join the Frost Wind Parade. May it be jolly and with many ledges.

• A well-known veteran returns to unite the Alliance against the Horkos. The one who is now known as 'Gryphon' has traveled far and wide, learned fighting techniques from warriors across all of Heathmoor and added his own deadly twist to them. Wielding the bardiche, this charismatic leader excels in all situations and keeps his allies alive to fight another day.
  
• Difficulty: Easy
  
• Support/Healer
  
• Good Melee Range

Special Capabilities

• Strong Mix-Up in the Chain Finishers
  
• Many Maneuvers and Attacks shortcut to the Chain Finisher Mix-Up
  
• Many Team-Healing Support Feats
  

• We have further improved the Revenge User Interface to display more information: The Revenge gauge around enemies’ emblems will now blink if your next attack will increase their Revenge
  
• We have removed the old Revenge Gauge in the bottom left screen as the information there was a duplicate of the gauge around players’ emblems

Developer’s comment: The original intention behind the recent Revenge changes was to allow players to make better decisions during group fights. Showing the Revenge gauge was a first step, and we’re now displaying more granular information by indicating whether or not an attack will feed revenge to ensure players can adjust their course of actions accordingly.

• We have replaced the “Revenge Attack” Feat with “Executioner’s Respite”. “Executioner’s Respite” increases heals of executions by 50% of their base value

Developer’s comment: Now that the Revenge status is visible by everyone, having a Feat that lets the owner alter their Revenge state by themselves made it look inconsistent and confusing. and it defeated the purpose of giving better information on players’ status. We've replaced the feat with a whole new effect for any Hero that uses it, which we hope will be useful to all of them.

• We have updated the “Righteous Deflection” Feat to ensure it no longer affects Revenge gains but the other effects of the Feat remain unchanged

Developer’s comment: For the same reason we have changed the “Revenge Attack” Feat, we made sure players cannot affect their Revenge status by themselves anymore with “Righteous Deflection”.


Additionally to the graphical improvements that were available since the launch of the PS5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Serie S, we are happy to introduce a 60 Frame Rate per Second on those consoles, so to recap:

Available since the consoles launch

• 4k Resolution on PS5 and Xbox Series X, 1080p on Xbox Series S
  
• Increased Level of Detail
  
• Increased Shadow Resolution
  
• Screen Space Reflection

Available with 2.24.0

• All the above
  
• 60 FPS on PS5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S

• Activate the 2-Steps Verification to receive 7 Days of Champion Status and “Horns of Eminence” Ornament! If you already activated the 2-Steps Verification in the past, your reward will automatically be delivered on your next login. Please note this reward can only be redeemed once.
  
• Known Issue: The Ornament will not be highlighted as a “New” Item in your inventory
  
• For any issues with the 2-Steps Verification: Please consult this FAQ or contact Customer Support.

• [Adjustment] Decreased Bounty Hunter heals to 20 (from 30).

Developer's comment: Bounty Hunter is already considered a 1st pick for all Heroes that carry it for its very high payoff, passive status with no cooldown and easy conditions to fulfill. Coupled with the Devourer Perk and now Executioner's Respite, we decided to lower its healing values to something we feel is more in line with the power level of a Tier 1 Feat.

• Removed spikes from Capture Zone A
  
• Attackers now have a secondary entrance in to Capture Zone C via a new sloped path, that veers right and leads through a broken wall that then connects to the zone
  
• Added a new bridge connection between Capture Zone C and the ramparts on the opposite side, which were previously not part of the playing area. The bridge overlooks the Mid Lane
  
• Attackers can now access the left-hand side of the ramparts via a ladder
  
• Added stairs that connect Mid Lane to Capture Zone C, removing the one way drops onto Mid Lane throughout the area
  
• Reworked Ashfeld lighting environment to make it brighter

• Moved one of the duel arenas from the Ramparts (Capture Zone C) to the Defender Stronghold

• Removed props and fires and centered Player spawn points at Mid Lane

Developer's comment: Beachhead was in much need for some drastic changes for some time. Attackers had too few options when it came to navigating towards both Capture Zone areas. The newly added slopes, stairs and ladders will now allow Attackers (as well as Defenders) to easily get to wherever they need to go. Another issue in the map was that Mid-Lane was subjected to too many drop attack opportunities throughout its entire length due to the one-way drops. With the new stairs and bridge we keep the navigational options while removing the frustration of getting drop-attacked too often. Finally, the spikes at Capture Zone A were a major point of frustration and were too gratuitous in their position. We strongly believe this change makes the area much healthier as an integral fighting space.

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused damage inconsistencies in between Out of Stamina and Out of Lock Attacks (FH-473)
  
• Decreased Warden Out of Stamina Neutral Top Light to 12 damage (from 15)
  
• Decreased Conqueror Out of Lock Neutral Heavy to 22 damage (from 24)

• [Bug Fix] Chained Light Recoveries are now 833ms on hit and 733ms on block, both in-lock and out of lock

Developer's comment:

• This ensures Highlander is not frame advantaged after chained lights, since they give a medium reaction.

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Aramusha's Zone Attack Guard Break vulnerability to be 200ms instead of 100ms (FH-401)
  
• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Aramusha's Guard Break to bounces off an opponent after performing “Rushing Wind” to Side Heavy feinted to Guard Break (FH-235)
  
• [Adjustment] Added extra forward movement on Neutral Lights and Neutral Heavies to ensure they connect after a Parry (FH-368)

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Nuxia to be unable to chain into her Zone Attack after a Light attack hit or on bad block (FH-208)

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Jiang Jung' to spin around while feinting left Unblockable finisher (FH-453)

• [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the Jormungandr to have sliding animation when dodging after a feint (FH-537)

For Honor® Year 4 Season 4 Mayhem is now available for all players!

In a pivotal moment in Heathmoor’s history, rebels from all factions needed guidance to become a full-blown army, and the mercenary Gryphon answered their call to form the Chimera Alliance. Beginning today, the Knight Errant Gryphon invites players to join the resistance to defy the Order of Horkos and stop the Corruption in Year 4 Season 4 Mayhem.

Players can now unlock Gryphon as a playable Hero. Previously known as Holden Cross, Gryphon was a great warrior in the Order of the Lawbringers who fought side-by-side with Apollyon. After her death, he was rejected by his fellow Lawbringers, prompting him to join a mercenary guild and journey across the world, making friendships in all factions and learning new fighting techniques with a Bardiche, a sturdy poleaxe.

Hello Warriors!

Once again, we’re opening the Testing Grounds from December 10th to December 17th so that you can all try out new hero improvements!

Right here, we’ll be focusing on an overview of the changes and what we’re trying to fix with some of your favorite heroes. If you’re interested in a more in-depth exploration of the changes, we’re encouraging you to watch the Warrior’s Den segment where we go in depth on every change and discuss how it affects that hero’s gameplay.

This Testing Grounds features improvement to four heroes:

• Warden
  
• Peacekeeper
  
• Shugoki
  
• Nobushi

For Warden, we’re focusing on changes regarding fully charged Shoulder Bash feints and Back Dodge Shoulder Bash, as well as, making the hero more viable in 1v1 and 1vX situations.

Peacekeeper’s changes revolve around giving her more mobility in group fights as well as adding a new synergy point for her Bleeds. We’re also improving her base damage to help her defeat her opponents more swiftly.

Shugoki received changes aimed at some of his Armored moves. We’re also adding two new moves in his arsenal, giving him a way to catch up to rolling opponents as well to deal with bashes.

Finally, with Nobushi, we’re looking to improve her flow so that she is effective in 1v1 as well as in the minion lane.

• Shoulder Bash is no longer accessible via Back Dodging.
  
• Fully Charged Shoulder Bash no longer has extra movement when feinted.

Dev Comment: With these changes, Shoulder Bash should feel less effective defensively.

• Each of Warden’s Attacks (except Shoulder Bash) can now chain to Shoulder Bash.

Dev Comment: Warden now has easier access to Shoulder Bash and is no longer limited to using Lights to go on the offensive. These changes along with the changes stated above shifts Warden’s 1v1 playstyle from defensive to more offensive.

• Side Heavy Opener trajectories have been improved.
  
• All Heavy Finishers are now 900ms and Unblockable.
  
• Side Heavy Finisher trajectories have been improved.
  
• Zone Attack recovery is now 500ms (from 1000ms).

Dev Comment: These are changes aimed at making Warden more effective in outnumbered scenarios.

• All Heavy Attacks (including dodge attacks) now deal 5 extra baseline damage. Bleed damage has not changed.
  
• When locked on to a Bleeding opponent, Heavy Finishers and the 2nd hit of Zone Attack are now Unblockable.

Dev Comment: Peacekeeper should now have stronger 1v1 pressure as well as be able to execute more often.

• Dagger Cancel can now cancel its recovery with Dodge.

Dev Comment: Dagger Cancel should now be more useful in outnumbered situations.

• Zone Attack is now Enhanced and gives a Heavy Parry reaction when Parried.
  
• Zone Attack 2nd hit now soft feints to Guardbreak and Dodge.

Dev Comment: Zone Attack has been normalized and with the Unblockable changes now functions as an easy to access mixup from neutral.

• Deflect is now performed with Heavy Attack instead of Light Attack

Dev Comment: This should make it easier to land deflects and removes the necessity to always press Light after a Dodge in case a Deflect was performed.

• Light Openers no longer have Armor.
  
• Demon’s Embrace no longer has Armor.

Dev Comment: Removal of Armor on these two moves should make them less oppressive.

• NEW OPTION: Dodge Forward Heavy.

Dev Comment: Shugoki can now catch back rollers effectively.

• NEW OPTION: Side Dodge Melee.

Dev Comment: Shugoki now has a tool to deal with Melee attacks.

• Hidden Stance now costs 12 stamina (Down from 24).
  
• Heavy Finishers and Heavy Attacks from Hidden Stance are now Undodgeable.
  
• Zone Attack 2nd hit now soft feints into Kick, Heavy Finisher and Dodge.
  
• Zone Attack 1st hit now costs 20 stamina (Down from 40).
  
• Cobra Strike now chains to Heavy Finisher.
  
• Sidewinder now chains to Heavy Finisher.

Dev Comment: Nobushi’s flow has been improved – Heavy Finishers being Undodgeable gives her a mixup with her Kicks, Zone Attack now also has a built-in mixup and her dodge attacks now give her stronger presence in the minion lane.

We hope you enjoy trying out these changes to Warden, Peacekeer, Shugoki, and Nobushi. We’ll be sending out a survey soon and we’ll be monitoring social media for feedback, so do not hesitate to voice your opinion on the changes.
