    Default Tumbling is incorrect.

    Out of all the issues with this, I'm just here to post about the points and way it tumbles...

    Right now, with 31 tumble, my character can do back flips, dive to the sides, but, only rolls forwards? How is it that somebody can do a back flip, but not a front flip? Depends on the person so it seems, but, it's more common to see somebody that can do front flips easier than back flips. So, should we add this in for character creation? "Do you do front flips or back flips easier"? lol

    Yea...broken(not really, just, not well thought out)...back flip should definitely be the hardest one to do...lol

    I'll play.

    Actually, the front flip is far harder to execute due to the fact that the landing is blind. When executing a back flip, you can spot your landing early and simply place your feet where you are looking. On a front flip, your feet are already in place before you can see the landing.

    When I was much younger and fitter, I could execute a standing back flip. Just stand still jump up and flip. I never could do a front flip.

    So get your tumble up a few more ranks and find something better to complain about

    Na. It was always easier for me to do front flips, and still is. And everyone I know, front flips are just easier to do. It doesn't matter if u see your landing or not, it's instinct.
    And I know a little higher tumble gets front flip, but still, front flips are easier then back flips.

    Then again, it's different for each person. People are unique.

    I didn't know I could get so much neg rep for such a silly joke.

    Negative rep, but not even reply stating what you think about what it is I said. Please, tell me why you think I deserved negative rep for that post.

    I'd contemplate giving you negative rep (don't have any to give right now) because your response was abrasive. Draccus is one of the most helpful posters on the forums. Calling him arrogant is bad form and unnecessarily combative. If you read bad intent into his message (which I did not see), something more constructive could have been said.

    I hadn't neg rep'd him but I was thinking of it for just that reason.

    And of course its a silly fluff issue to begin with anyway. Tumble is a largely broken skill, but that has nothing to do with the animations.
