not worth the ham cost. Only area attack I bother with is 2hareaattack3

works sometimes, I'd just stick to lunge 1 for the increased range if you're being kited by a ranged opponent.

I'm just trying to find out if there's a swordsman move that will actually do a posture change. I have my dizzy specials with rifle, so all I need is to force a kneel. I know lunge2 from brawler will work, but I'd like to avoid dropping 4/0/0/3 TK for master brawler if possible.

Lunge 1 you get with novice brawler and it almost always forces a kneel and it has a 16 meter range instead of the usual 8 meters.

Nice. TK lunge1 and fencer lunge1 were crap. I hope this one pans out.

lunge1 does posture down on a fairly consistent basis. Works well on ranged kiters, not so well on defence stacked melee

Not even the TK KD2 works well on stacked melees.

Lunge 1 seems to have a 20 meter reach in PvP (tested it with a friend) and a 16 meter reach in PvE.

actually i found ti was both 20 meters in pvp and in pve and sometimes i see a 24 metters in pve vs big creatures like krayts and torturs

I find none of the swordsman posture changes to be effective and our dizzies never stick either. However, we can hurt the piss out of somebody's mind if we can hit them. I just wish we had some way to keep somebody pinned down like one of the other melee classes.

I'm very much in love with the master brawlers Lunge2 and Warcry2 combo.

Lunge2 doens't work very often for me.
