I think that now when the zombie jumps at you and you take damage for it instead of when he chews on your head is bull. Its easy to avoid the chewing but the jump is pretty hard.

Agreed and Not Agreed
I agree that the new zombie attack is very slightly OP, but they can't nerf it because zombies used to be a walk-in-the-park for many. I mean, zombies are slow and powerful, better than versing a bunch of kats (in my opinion). It encourages players to be more cautious and put up their shields when zombies are ready to lunge. Besides, do what I do, when the zombie does it shout "FALCON KICK!"

Yeah i guess i see your point. If your in teir 3 or what ever you have to be tough and not just sit in a corner and charge bombs unless thats your job.

Lol I'm a Swordsman
I recently solo'd tier 3, came across a graveyard level, and lost a lot of health due to not knowing the basics of the new attack. Don't forget they lunge straight, so they're easy to dodge, but they are a tad annoying ;)

I like it. Zombies shouldn't be as easy as Scuttlebots. I actually have to pay a little attention at FSC now.

I think its a nice, necessary buff, although it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever... is the zombie jumping up and kneeing you in the face? Is the idea of a zombie flying in the air too much for the knight? But whatever, go buff.

I don't mind the jump attack, or at least, the idea of it. What I do mind is the attack dealing damage to me before the zombie even touches me. I've seen it a couple of times now.

Meep.
I don't know about it being "bull," I think the original jump attack was far too weak, and usually a slap on the wrist even if you did get hit. It might be a bit OP now, though, but I'd rather it be this way than its previous incarnation. My sole complaint is that the zombie tends to be able to plow through with enough range that even if you see it coming, it's usually impossible to run away. If you do, they hit you regardless and at a distance that seems unfair. Pretty much the only option is shielding. I was actually planning on upgrading an Owlite Shield for FSC, not sure if it'll be worth it now... then again, I guess there's always battling more defensively.

For me, it's the fact that it hits 3 times per jump (that is, upon impact, if shielded. the jump "hits" the shield 3 times, almost destroying it). It wouldn't be so bad if it was only one hit, but this just seems a bit absurd, zombies don't deal as much damage as a trojan smash does.

All of you complaining about the oh so hard zombies, do you just stand in a single spot attacking? They only jump when you stop moving, it's not hard to predict. I wish that along with that new jump attack, they got their old swipe targeting back, that would be fun >:D

There are 2 problems with the
There are 2 problems with the current jump, otherwise I love the change.
1) you get hit when they start jumping and haven't made contact yet. This makes shielding/dodging harder than it should be based on the visuals. I mean, If the hit is going to be so fast it should be a warp instead of a jump (dark powers can warp right?)
2) It hits 2-3 times if you shield early. This destroys shields way more than they should. If you don't shield you only get hit once. The only things I can think that hit shields multiple times are status affect attacks (slag breath, flame thrower, greaver mist) and those don't do nearly as much damage to the shield.

When I clicked this thread, I was kinda hoping for a video of someone with a red personal color messin' with a zombie by standing in front of it, and dash behind it as it jumps towards him, like a matador.

CHEST BOMP
ZOMBIE uses CHEST BUMP!
It's super effective!
If that zombie immobilization glitch doesn't teach me to dodge/shield, this new update will. This will make graveyards more fun :3
I mean, yeah, I guess I'll be a little more mad when I take damage when they touch me, but, eh. No shadow armor, can't really complain.

It's not too hard, and if you had a good shield you would think so too.
