This isn't what you are asking, but I do think when a guy blocks a Great Maul/other heavy weapon with his 0-slot hatchet or whatever, he shouldn't recover from it like he just brushed away a fly. Newton says otherwise.
I also hate being double-swung on (even happens with my 100 speed Steel Pick against good players, like Saul with his friggin 94 speed Bec), but tennis-style fights are boring too. Maybe one day I'll figure out how to double-swing on people, and it's on!
