The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System - Vol. 1 Ch. 3

I was wondering if that poison was all show or not

 

[AkumetsuV8]

Gotta love how isekai/vrmmo power fantasies all have have broken systems that supposedly only the protagonist knows about.

So... a level 8 skill from the "most useless" class can stack damage reduction twice without any constraints? One single player stacking a huge debuff of -40% Attack/Damage is literally so broken. It's not limited by time either or by enemy level.
Clearly, "the worst class" that "no one could figure out/use properly except the MC."

Remember, within the setting, even genius characters can only be as smart as the author

All I can say is Ares is a g

It did say the debuff lasts for 1 min, I guess it refreshed the timer when he applied it the second time, either way that's still busted

 

[MiguelH224]

People mentioned that Heavy Knight took way longer to level up, everyone in the manga swore up and down that the class was useless cause of that



MC only had 3 different encounters and is already lvl 12


What kind of sense does that make? Why tf did he jump that much in between levels??

He went from lvl 2 to lvl 8 after he took out the gang of frogs that was attacking Ares, that shit made zero sense to me

Convenient writing sure is convenient

if a fucking disarm skill like that you get in your first ten levels or so just from pumping your class skill FUCKING STACKS, everyone in the world would know about it and the heavy knight would be one of the most popular tanks in the universe. dont give me that "nobody ever tried it before" bs. hundreds of people absolutely tried it. thousands. even if 1 in a hundred thousand heavy knights tried it, the whole world would end up knowing after you poked a monster till it had 0 dps

 

[androgynous]

I guess all heavy knights must've died on their first adventure!
Rip poor bastards who are not smart as our MC

 

[JustSomeGuyOnHisPhone]

BRUH THE ATTACK REDUCTION STACKS!?!?!? That's literally so game breaking it makes every other class useless

The writing is so bad an actual meta to kill everything as heavy knight is to literally rush towards your enemies and just stab them multiple times quickly with a knife and they'll have such a massive attack reduction it'll make taking a punch from a special needs child look stronger than taking 20 punches from 100 roided out Mike Tysons

Remember, within the setting, even genius characters can only be as smart as the author

Thinking back to many dumbass, frustrating plots in so many stories, this statement couldn't be more true. I can think of many instances where the author makes the other characters so dumb just to make the MC look smart.

 

[Coldlight]

Two Disarm strikes stack additively to bring down enemy attack power to 40%...
That means a mere 5 strikes of that will reduce enemy attack to 0 for 1 minute.
That's braindead broken and makes everyone else look like morons for not taking advantage of someting so overpowered.

If I were to attempt to apply logic to it, i'd say Ares accidentally helped him power level by pulling all those frogs to him and the level jump with the spider was just the result of how high its level was. DO I actually think that's what the author was thinking? No. I don't think the author has ever played a well-made MMO in his life or has any clue about how the studio who made the game would go to great lengths to balance the class if it was too weak (which it isn't) into something more user-friendly.

This one has no logic but I love isekai trash so let's roll with it

thanks for the chapter

in instances like this you just shut off your brain and stop thinking

 

[notos]

People complaining about this chapter have never played an MMO apparently

No one remembers when in early WoW Warriors were the shit class no one wanted to play until some dude showed how overpowered they could be, blizzard even nerfed them and still became the top DPS AND Tank class in vanilla

more recently Genshin comes to mind how Bennet was a D-tier character in 1.0 but literally became S class after people realized how OP his ATK buff AND heal really was

it seems in this world the Metagaming is in it's early stages and quite understandable since fucking up your build is literally fucking up your life

if you shut off your brain enough to enjoy this one, you'd end up vegetative on a life support machine.

[Kampfarsch]

Why would a monster try to "cast" a spell it has no mana for? Isnt this basically an animal?
Especially considering those are its only 2 moves it would definitely know that it cant use one right after the other no?
These are some incredibly silly circumstances contrived to make MC look smart when all he did was tank a hit and debuff the enemy
