Taking damage shouldn’t cancel a finisher

That completely defeats the purpose of doing a finisher in the first place, to refill shields to regain lost health. The only way to stop a finisher should be to kill the player doing it, not tap them once with 1 damage

the choice should be yours, do I want to try and complete this finisher to survive a bit longer, but risk dying in the process. Or do I want to just kill the downed player with a gun and be left without shields 

there should be an option to turn off ‘taking damage stops finisher’ like how there’s one for taking damage closing death box menus

  • @Bean2kay9 I didn't know finishers refilled health and shield, thought you needed like a gold helmet or something plus finisher for that to happen.
  • @CAGOA34 Just shields, you used to need gold body armour as well but they changed it a while ago so any finisher, regardless of body armour will fully recharged shields

    @Bean2kay9 That's interesting and sounds good for early game, as for being shot while finishing someone I am all for that tbh, don't wanna be a sitting duck with no chance of fighting back.
  • @Bean2kay9 Also, your finisher cancellation isn't just your choice. I want you to stop finishing my teammate. I want an option called 'Force the people have the option enabled to cancel on one tap'.

    @Bean2kay9 Depending on what finisher you are using the one can hardly even be interrupted. She goes into the void and is un shootable its the one i use.

    Don't forget also that finisher is 100 extra dmg added to your dmg done! =P

    @BaldWraithSimp It def may need looking into imo. It certainly has a huge advantage over other players when doing finishers.
  • All you have to do is change the your settings to where you don’t stop things while taking damage. Forget what setting it is.
