Jump Kick and Shield Bash

[Durton_mustachier]

Allow players to kick while in the air. A swift kick to the head should knock your target to the ground. A risky move with big payoff. Probably would afford many hilarious moments in game as well.

Add shield bash.   A quick, short range move that uses your shield to stagger the target, perhaps causing a small amount of damage (similar to kick, but would not break your block). This could also cause damage to the shield to prevent shield bash from becoming over used. I know this has already been discussed on the forums, but I thought I would 2nd the opinion.

if you wanna kick people to head go play tekken or something.

Although it would be awesome especially for ninjas I think we shouldnt add a jump kick. Im also against a shield bash because I like the balance between no shielders and shielders now and this could change the balance greatly.

You could balance shield bash by increasing the amount of damage it causes to your shield.

your foot in cloth shoes just kicked my helmet made out of steel. Not only should i not fall down, Your foot should break.

Also go find one instance of people in mail, or plate where they are jumping around kicking shit.

if u have massive lag u can do a "jumpkick"

In that case you shouldn't be able to jump and swing an incredibly heavy weapon while wearing plate.

Jump kicking could be limited to  lighter armor, which would be more realistic and ideal for ninjas. Also, the ability to knock someone down could be excluded, or limited only to those with lighter helmets.
