Here's hoping that devs actually read and consider your thread.

It won't kill you, unless you're low on health or it may possibly kill you if you're an eldar. It will keep melee flow quite constant and will avoid stagnation and lock-downed melee in group fights.

And at the end of the day, if you mindlessly spam, and fuck up by means of the receiver countering your attack, you deserve to be punished for doing so. At the same time, you have the ability to predict and punish a defender for anticipating a mindlessly spammed attack string.

He is right, that is much to long of a time. However it DOES need to be increased from what it is now for Tactical/range players. Because now it is way to fast of a d-bash stun, but 2-3 swings is..to long of a stun. Something in between.

There's too much nuance where it isn't needed, particularly in a game with matches this size. This is pretty much the cause of all of EC's melee woes, especially because all these exceptions just create a breeding ground for bugs and lag to fuck things up.

People using Dbash too much?
No, the solution isn't to add durability loss when properly using d-bash. Make the god damned strong attack immune to all phases of the d-bash so that it's a proper hard counter. Now that you've made d-bash garbage, everyone spams RMB. Who could have seen that coming?

People spamming fast wind-up strong attacks?
This wouldn't be a problem on its own if light attacks didn't clang against strong attacks in its closing frames. Once again, unnecessary nuance.

YES!

Has anyone else had the mark of khorne ignore a d.bash and continue attacking? I see the animation come out, they reel from the hit, but continue as if nothing happened.

I've noticed it happening more often on khorne users than anyone else. It happens for others, but the stun is just short. Khorne is not affected by the kick at all, nearly 100% of the time for me.

I've had every type of attack get ignored by every type of class, especially d-bashes.
