There is no unblockable attack, but a couched lance.
You can chamber a couched lance, but you cannot block it normally without a shield.

Sometimes I see a bug where cav doesn't OS people. I hope they will fix it in the next patch.

Nerf range (of bumps)

Really, it should not immobilise you so easily, or the cav swings should be a bit more difficult to execute
If you have ranged troubles use this:

I'm not talking about bumpslashes, I'm talking about a swing that maybe goes over your block because the rider is above you?

If a rider slashes above you it won't hit you, no matter whether you are blocking or not. If it hits you, you missed your block, missed your attack or you got bumped.

Right attack on horse = left block on foot.

Or you could wiggle around until you hear a "ploink" sound.

I don't think any mauls can be used on horseback, if they do they would be tough to land anyway.

No, most likely because the attacks coming from the horseback look somewhat unusual and confusing for you, probably need some practice before you can align your blocks better.

As for crushthrough, no weapon can do that from horseback. And besides, why would you need it when bumpslash practically gives you the same effect?

Bumpslash is even more efficient since you land the hit no matter what. (Assuming you know your timing)
While crushthrough is not a 100% chance.
For all the non-believers, look no further than this thread for proof that while strat battles are won/lost in NA3/EU3, strat wars are won and lost on the forums.
