Alright, I have done a forum search, and havent found an answer. 1) I have noticed that sweepkick, side kick, throw(even with ground control), and trip all do not lag for a full 2 rounds (always have them fleeing before I get another command in). Scissor kick, in my experiance, lags between 1 and 3 rounds, but it is a guaranteed 3 round lag on me...so it barely seems worth it. I guess my first question is this, Why do thieves get a skill that allows them the chance at 100% lagging an entire fight, and warriors get a number of them, but assassins get none? 2) My second question is related to the first. I have heard a rumor that mountain storm kick and rising pheonix kick lag. I have heard people say it lags enough to 100% lag someone, I have heard people say it lags them the same as throw, I have heard peopl say that it doesnt lag them, and that it is just an "urban legend" that they have any lagging ability. I would like to hear from people who have used them, a definitive answer. Yes it lags, no it doesnt, yes it lags a bit. In my search, I have seen people answer this question by saying "look at the logs" and "play an assassin to 46 and find out". Well I have looked at the logs, and I have put 100 hours into a char to get him almost half way to rank 46. I am begging you guys for a straight answer. I am not asking for spoon-feeding any more than that guy asking which skills to perfect and why.
