I have to say apoc is way more fun that the first iteration several months ago, the lunge is really fun and allows you to get to places you would normally struggle. As someone who just is not a BR player its not so bad for a short term AOC fix. Though it did take me 13 games to get my first kill but not too long after that I did actually manage to win a game, and now I manage to get a kill or two each game. But yes the lunge does add a fun dynamic to things.

I wouldn't mind them toning it down a little for the MMO experience as I think it's a bit OP. One jump is fine, the second and third jump need to be locked behind a passive with a longer cool down as well as locked to one class. In Apoc it's okay because you want a different game experience for players, faster paced and easier to move around but imagine come siege time if all your enemies just vaulted over your barricades, walls and choke points? It would render the siege experience a bit pointless.

Give him the ability as a skill with three charges, and a long cd on the recharge. I get the feeling of mobility when i think of the trickster.

So, you can jump out form a window and jump back in the upper floor's window with one single jump sequence. (tested) Despite it is very funny thing, I found it OP and make the horse totally useless. Maybe they will add something to the horse riding later to make it more useful.

Any time I tried the horse I had to move around. With jump, I was able to move straight additionally, I was able to remove the fall damage with a well used jump. The other thing is that I almost never travel long distances. But as you confirmed that it is faster, I give it another chance.
