Ya it would have made a thousand times more sense to have AC combo off of Shadow Fang instead of being yet another combo off of Gust Slash.

Also, is it just me or does it seem like Armor Crush and Dancing Edge should have their names switched? I mean you would think the skill called Armor Crush would have something to do with lowering the targets defenses somehow =P

I think it's called Armor Crush more for the actual attack, which involves a straight line stab not unlike the kind Gerolt said the ninja used to use with their Yoshimitsu to go straight through armor when he talked about it in A Relic Reborn.

And yeah, positionals suck. They're doable (used to main Monk) but it's still bleh now every time the boss gets spun or turns to do a mechanic on someone and you get a gimped Aeolian Edge or Armor Crush. Not to mention the fact that Dancing Edge is their strongest attack when soloing now unless you get lucky with the server recognizing a swift movement to the side or back. I miss Sneak/Trick Attack being their only positional, really badly.

I'm hoping this will get changed but wont hold my breath. Would also be nice if they switched the positionals from AE to DE but meh ill live I guess lol
