It seems to me that a forced posture change should also delay someone's next attack. Getting thrown off-balance is rather disruptive, as is trying to get to your feet.


Lunge seems to really have been nerfed into uselessness.

yeah, fighting Tusken's I've tempted the lunge+dizzy combo a few times when grouped.

whenever I actually got the combo working, the Tusken would try to stand from kneel, then fall flat on the back, then half a second later he would stand up and fight again. After I tried it 5 times (five succesful combos, where I actually saw him fall down while trying to stand from kneel), he would stand up after knockdown, I decided to not use it anymore.

anybody else get something like this?

I don't even bother with lunge/dizzy or dizzy/lunge anymore. It seems to be a completly useless skill.


This is bad considering it was one of the few items I could use in combat that would reduce my dmg and need for special spamming.

A whopping 1-3 damage with a slight chance of making them kneel and get up a second later, while you lose about 50 to all of your HAM pools.

I don't even bother with lunge or dizzy anymore - these skills are obsolete with the 30s KD immunity timer. The time wasted to lunge/dizzy is better off spent landing high damage moves. Or, in the case of being kited, that time could be spent finding a tree to hide behind.

thanks for testing, and not to be a jerk, but your math adds up to 31 tests.
