The knight should follow the explosions created by the charge.

The papaya has run out of ideas to put here ^^
Oatty ^^
Well um, I'm not sure why the knight would want to follow the huge explosions of doom in the first place XD I mean, yeah, you can't hurt yourself with your own weapons (unless you somehow launch yourself into traps with the WRH).
Doesn't your suggestion ruin the point of the Brandish line? (no offense >.>) I mean, one of the reasons I like the Brandish line is because of the charge, and the fact that it doesn't launch you into a monster's face.

Right now, the Brandish charge is basically a gun, well it doesn't go over walls or gaps. It's a land gun! This change will bring the charge more in line with other AoE sword charges like the WRH or the Troika line.
It also means you can't go using the charge willy-nilly and expect fabulous results.

Of course it isn't a gun, man. Only bombs can be guns if they shoot things, guns that shoot bombs and swords that shoot things or explode are ok.

I like it.
Change it from just explosions to the knight jumping forward and leaving the explosions behind him.

You still haven't explained to me the difference between a combuster with this design mechanic, and a rocket hammer with the chance to inflict fire.

@Byas
Mecha knights say it's a gun, they react to it like they do to any other kind of projectile.
Therefore, it's a gun.

Rocket Hammer doesn't need to be charged.

@ klip
acheron would deal shadow damage. anyway.
I had this idea too. take the calibur series animation and spam it in the charge instead of the explosion. that would be amusing as the dash-in-fire with the WRM.
seriously answering to klip: speed and the fact that the AoE has you in the center, not your weapon as WRH/troika line.

@Klipik, I'm sorry, I didn't realize the Brandish only upgraded to the Combuster. I also didn't realize the WRH's charge was a swing followed by five explosions. Did I mention the fact that a Brandish combo doesn't make you dash?

Heh.
I liked Klipik's point. It made a lot of sense. The WRH already does what you want, without charge. With charge....you can basically call yourself a "train" that people like. Also, it scientifically doesn't make sense. Explosion's in front of you shaking the ground should send you backwards...not forwards. With the rocket hammer, it is called the "Rocket" Hammer because it has rockets on it that propel you and the weapon forward. If you ask me, the brandish charge should throw you backwards a few tiles more.

I was comparing this new charge attack to the rocket hammer's dash. They both create a series of explosions in a line (WRH only if it hits something) and pull you along for the ride.

Go away with your seriousness, Hexzyle. As I stated on the link, it's just a joke. If I really wanted to debate over RSS again I would make it in a related topic, not one about brandishes.

@Arkate
Don't know if trolling or serious. We have nature sprites, a giant mythical beast that's almost invincible, a bomb, that when it explodes, has orbs floating around it which defy gravity, and you want to complain about a sword that'll launch you forward?

Sorry, I'm just sick of that rumour being spread around. Every time I see a "bring RSS back" thread, all I see is that one line being used, and no other arguments.
Rename this thread: "Rocket Hammer should inflict statuses."
