It's a vicious animal that sees you trying to dodge and changes course to hit you anyway. And DK wings don't work on winged animals, it just makes them angry that you have them at all and they hit you harder.
It is blockable however because it's vicious and focused but not necessarily smart.
/lore reason
Wardens don't have many class skills that do damage, and their damage isn't all that great overall, so adjustments were made. If cliff racer was easily mitigated, the class would be much worse off than it is now.

Why is this skill incredible strong?
When playing on my dragonknight I was taking 5k cliff racers to the face in full impen, with my shields and armor up.
5k per cliff racer, that was 5-6 cliff racers in 5seconds, that was 20-30k damage in 5 seconds, I could not reflect, I could not dodge, I could not out-range it... What is the purpose of making a normal skill not reflectable or dodgable
I understand the purpose of skills like destruction, its a channel. But this one is not channel, its just an instant high damage skill.
I'm not crying nerf, but I want to know the reasoning behind this skill being so incredible strong.

In the Alpha of morrowind mine was doing 30k DPS in a crit rush, they have been quite strong. Just set them up right, but they are squishy.
They should count as a projectile, but I mean the wings of a dragon knight are demonic, dragon wings.... But a bird goes through them?

Newsflash
Block has been invented.
Also, it is not an instant skill.
BTW if Warden killed you with just a cliff racer, you need to L2P.

Its really strong when people don't know to block it and try to reflect/dodge resulting in them taking full damage. As for why it isn't reflectable, from a logic perspective, dk wings don't reflect projectiles if the source isn't a target they can attack. (same reasons winds don't reflect arrows from the nightblades shade, skoria, meteor, and other "projectiles" that don't have the opposing player as the source).

Why wouldn't you? If they are so cavalier about depleting their primary resource, let them break themselves against your wall. If it is using their secondary resource, then there won't be much to block anyway.
yean lets nerf warden more:)
