Warriors have like 50 skills which do awesome damage and stun at the same time, do they really need a lousy holding skill that works only when mounted and fails half the time even? ::)

Your right it is lousy, but sometimes it makes that little difference, it would not be over powered i think, but slightly beneficial to spear and staff spec'd warriors...

As fighter you could mount, drum maces and flank simultaneously. Not only does balance feat not help, you also do much more damage than shadow assassins using latch and throw. Besides, spear and staff are defensive specs, not meant to hold enemies in place.

Hmm, guess i kind of contradicted myself saying flank is lousy there... ;D

Actually i had a thought about it, parting blow + 10 attempts to flee would be a little overpowered, though i never really did like how often parting blow misses....

Rionne is right. Cobar warriors (done correct) have no need for it. There are other problems with cobar fighters within their own skill sets that should be looked at instead of just giving them arbitrary skills in an attempt to balance.
