Dizzy Swing

Hi there, I really admire spamming dizzy swings so much I'm wondering if you could make it so I can stop killing people in 2-3 dizzy swings. You added cast times to ultimate because they're so "powerful" but my dizzy swings hit harder than my ultimate. I can spam heavies behind every dizzy swing and get godly stamina sustain with only 854 stamina recovery. Idk if this is a problem because I'm just setting the bar high in pvp by spamming 1 button until he's executable.

I was thinking maybe you could add some other options so people aren't tunneled into Dizzy swing, otherwise we might become too MLG and make montage videos on Youtube.

Hopefully heavy attack off balance works as intended and not a med heavy, and hopefully u can increase the cost of dizzy swing as it's so cheap and gives u more stamina back than u use from a heavy attack into dizzy. The animation is so clunky you can stack Heavy attack and Dizzy swing at once, which is where the MLG starts.

Could you add defile back to sword and shield, since you buffed healing we can't counterplay healers as they keep passively outhealing most of anything. You made tanking easier, and hopefully as you're setting these "standards" you should relook into healing standard and dizzy swing as a spammable for it's cost. 2k stam to do 15k dizzy swings in cyrodil on pugs is not nice. I feel sorry for them... uwu

    Don't you think you should have a different baseline to balance abilities off of, because I mean I've killed pugs solely with bashing before. Doesn't mean bashing should be nerfed, just that pugs are terrible no matter what.

    As far as the off balance goes, In my opinion the original knockback should be returned and off balance should be taken off. Ive gotten stuck sliding on the ground plenty of times when breaking free out of the off balance heavy stun. Maybe offbalance can be pushed onto wrecking blow so people actually have a choice in morphs and it would go along with a light attack/ heavy attack build.

    There was this stamdk in BG last night spamming it. It was actually working pretty good cause I couldn't LoS around corners etc it kept tracking. But honestly had it not he wouldn't have hit me.

    After getting it nerfed another nerf thread I have to say that I still like it for some chars I do not know what ultimate are you using but i doubt that is true, that is the thing about nerf threads a lot of false information to prove the need to nerf point.
    I like a lot the sort synergy with the off balance that you can stun and that we can get resources back well it is different than the kickback of before, i hope you find a templar and he wreaks you.
    I think and most likely a lot of people will agree that is far from op now and most people know that you have to land the heavy attack after the dizzy swing and that is not aimed so it fails a lot in pvp, in pve good mobs do not move you can do almost anything you want to them.
    About your last part I do not know what to tell you use impenetrable or get more cp or apply your cp better to reduce direct damage attacks for example, this is totally a learn to play issue because is obvious is not you the one doing the 15k dizzies, it is obvious you are going to get hit hard if you want to use divines or another trait in pvp.

    Dizzy have one big obvious (to people who use it) disadvantage that you didn't mention at all.

    Please post video to prove your point.

    Dizzy is powerful, and it is on my DK bar for pvp.

    But hitting decent players with it is another matter, that's the bit you have not discussed. Its slow, and has a cast time. Many decent players and certainly any good players tend to make themselves pretty difficult to hit.
