We have an area dizzy move (DizzyHit2), but without an area lower Posture (currect me if I'm wrong)I see no real good use for it. 2-handed swordsmen have (Area3) witch is a Area hit + damage + dizzy + lower posture. So if (ScatterhitHit2) or (SpinAttack2) was changed to have a + lower poster, we have a good defense to group attacks.

i like that idea.
remember, you can area dizzy, then lunge the enemies one by one. the problem with that is, by the time you get to the second one, dizzy has worn off.
i would like to see area dizzy and area lunge cost more (well, after the lowered ham adjustments we probably deserve) than single dizzy, but for the effect to last a lot longer. that way i can have time to utilize the dizzy i applied instead of having to redo it when i'm done with the first enemy.

Good idea. In fact, one of the things I have discussing with the devs is the fact that we have two virtually identical special attacks: SpinAttack2 and Blind2. Both perform AE Blind.
How would you feel about SpinAttack2 being altered to AE posture-down rather than AE Blind?

that would be amazing and very useful. I agree, we dont need two specials that do the same thing...

<Voor slaps head> That's right we do have two area + blind attacks.
Yes Yes I agree SpinAttack2 should be AE posture-down!

I hope..i am not asking to much when I ask for a single knockdown rather than a area posture down

Area posture-down is kind of a niche that the 2H swordsmen fill.
It doesn't do them as much good since they don't have a dizzy though.

Well, for what it's worth, the dizzy on our Area Attack 3 is unreliable. Furthermore, we have 4 area posture change specials compared to your 2 redundant specials.

Yay for raphayl! Yes! Area posture down! (I'd rather KD, but I know not to push my luck, It tends to push back
)
