Harbinger of Darkness

I always support ways players can show true skill, and to me the sword block seems like an excellent way to prove how much skill a singular player has. I often grow weary of other players hoarding the power weapons, and am glad that this one in particular has a strategic weakness that can be exploited, making the whole situation a lot more tactical. The sword is used as an ambush, or bull rushing weapon, a player who isn't catching his enemies off guard with it is not using it to it's full potential. I am not promoting camping, I am simply stating that any player that has the reflex required to block a lunge, in an ambush situation should get to keep that advantage. To all who fail to see the facts of my argument I suggest you count among your blessings that the "sword block" is not a "perk" that can be attained through the armory, Imagine your increase of frustration if not only the skilled, but any rookie could block a lunge......I shudder at the notion.
