Thread: Would a dizzy attack help?

Knockdown is about the only way to win in PvP. If you don't knock someone down, they will probably do it to you. It's been pointed out before that we don't have access to a knockdown attack, where as even pistoleers have one (a melee attack no less). I was thinking about what the devs could put in the empty box at finesse 3 and I realized a Knockdown was a little too much to hope for, but maybe a dizzying attack wouldn't be. Used in conjunction with lunge, this could be used to cause a knockdown in a 2-move combo. I don't have much experience with PvP so I honestly do know if this would be all that helpful. Do most things die if you have time to hit them twice anyway? Even if that was the case, it would give us something to do in tough PvE fights other than throw up a mind bleed and pray. Anyway, just wanted to throw an idea out there. Comments from those with more experience would be very appreciated.

its all about the first hit


most thing does die if u can get to strike first.... or definitely if u can strike twice


problem is most of the time u won't get any hit in


and the marksman wouldn't feel cheap or guilty for spamming KD over and over in a 'duel'

Yeah really you ever see what happens if you hit someone with headhit3, they dont last long, I've only had one person live through the first hit and thats because he had armor on.
