Thread: Lunge nerf:
so far TH says he is looking into it, so once he lets me know, ill let you know.
ive messaged a few different devs with my own arguement (flame free of course) and included a few different links to various threads showing their overall disapproval of this change. also, i inlcuded my petition in their... hopefully at least 1 on of them will look at that. i think its in the mid 50's so far in /signs, but then again there arent too many melee char types now, so i see it as a fair amount. also, according to the brawler corrospondent, i did indeed get a response from a dev because of that thread, which makes me feel like at least it has been noticed (maybe not really thought about, but noticed).
but yes, this is an incredible nerf. noone cried for it. it was not overpowered. it came completely unsuspected. there seems to be no reason behind it.
it just doesnt make sence.
But if not, then they seriously need to add more damage, and maybe chill out the action cost a bit.

this nerf really pisses me off.
as was mentioned - no one EVER complains about lunge/KD. it's been universally accepted as the anti-ranged special.
The KD timer worked fine...which is more than i can say for root/snare timers.
there is absolutely no freakin reason to nerf lunge.

one things for sure, if this is a real nerf im going to push for there to be a KD move in swordsman. may not have the extended range, but ive learned to take victories where I can get them.
Don't worry, I'll help on this one....at least fencers got the basic TKA KD, if you are just swords, you get nothing

i say that if lunge no longer KDs then neither should saber throw...
or give us a Weapon throw like saber throw but you need a certain weapon like trowing knives or something that have a use counter on it... and there you go... a lunge from a weapon... sounds better to me...
and maybe have one diffrent for each profession... Pike gets a lance to throw fencer gets the knives... Swordmen gets a hammer to trow... and tka get thoughs... err keep forgetin the names of it... Shuriken's... that i think would be cool... the hammer would do like massive damage and a kd but only at 10m lance less damage and at 12m fencer less damage and at 14m and TKa at 16m with even less damage... think that would be good addition if you take away our range KD put it back in with a more realistic maner of KD... throwing something at someone is alot easier to kd them then Lunding at them from 10-15m. sweeps are better at kd'ing then lunging.
