The falling attack ability on fighter needs a cooldown. Stun and 130% damage that you can do over and over again. This has turned what used to be fun sword fights into a bunny hopping fest. Also if you wanna keep falling attack without a cooldown then remove the blocking cooldown on shields so we have a way to counter it as consistently as falling attack can be used.

#

it can be countered😂

#

dodge

#

block

#

also a half of a second is more then enough time to react if your team is in sync

Naaah should be nerfed, even because with clash (from barb class) or evade (fight class) you can delete the time that you get stuck after the attack, especially with evade is really easy to do

Only barb breaks guard with falling attack

Also can be used to cancel endlag on zweihander attack and has next to startup lag meaning you can get two hits off about twice as fast as using regular attacks

#

And say you land the 2 hits and a headshot, you're doing about 300 damage to a lightly armored target (with no skill bonuses) and then you can stun and usually land a third unless they use an evade or block.

#

300 damage in 1 basic attack + falling attack with only support gear no skills

#

Endlag of falling attack can be canceled the moment you hit the ground with evade

#

In the case of my character as an example I'd end up with about 20% damage reduction against myself so these two hits would leave me with only 35 hp remaining

#

Add in barbs physical penetration bonus from two handed mastery and id be two shot.

#

Falling attack can actually cancel an airborne basic attack at any point in the animation

Balance wise only being able to fight fire with fire is awful

#

Only build that I think could reliably counter is wizard and that's just cuz they're busted

#

Can just spam on shield users their guard doesn't come up fast enough

that fighter with the shield could have easily won that, he probably using wrong skills.
