Backstab nerfed why?

First of all, absolutely LOVE the game! I have been waiting for the BREACH UPDATE patiently… I have no earthly idea why the backstab has been nerfed into the ground. Very beginning of the beach, I sneak up on a mob and I’m basically almost inside him and no skull, WTH!!! I then proceed to dance around him to try to get position to backstab and it’s been turned up to 11 to try and get the skull!! IMO after about 50+ hours in the game the Backstab was in a pretty viable place; you had to get position and get behind and I didn’t feel like the game GAVE it to you; you had to work for it! However, it felt Good and SATISFYING to do so, now it feels totally horrible and almost unattainable!! Please go back to the prior tuning for this Mechanic…DEFFINITLY feels like a huge step backwards and makes the gamed feel much less satisfying IMO. Thanks

Backstabs definitely needed nerfing with how easy it was to abuse before. It’s entirely possible they overdid it though.

cant do a single one now :cry:

Agreed, basically not worth even trying to backstab.
