Thread: 2H Lunge Range Testing
The 2H Lunge 1 description says something about increasing your range. I did some experiments with a friendly guild TKA in some non-lethal duels last night to find out what the range was. I was shocked to discover that the range is 15m! (I dont have Lunge 2 so couldn't test it.)
The TKA's similar posture down attack is also 15m, but I figure a lot of TKAs like to spam knockdown which requires them to close to melee distance, and will not consider using posture down... so for a while swordsmen can have a small jump but forcing TKAs to kneel and prone from 15m out.
All lunges have 15m range, you're supposed to use them to stop things kiting you by forcing them to kneel. It does pitiful damage and costs a lot though.
Used to do full damage, but the standing15m from something and spamming lunge until it died exploit was discovered. Remind you of any gun user abilities perhaps?
