As a quick note, Master Torture has been renamed to Torment - I've noted this in the update, and will update the Torturer list when the skills are updated as well.

To clarify, Body Block does NOT knock the target prone?

Correct - Body Block and Shield Bash no longer knock an opponent prone. This was a compromise for them automatically hitting IG without needing to hit OOG.

According to my research there is a difference between the original Iaijutsu and the current version even though they are theoretically the same the technique. I say this because the way the skill Iaijutsu was being used originally is the equivalent to Iaido which is basically quick strike however it was fathered by Iaijutsu which is quick defense so I propose that Iaijutsu have dual uses quick draw and quick strike one or the other. For example a char attacks with sever limb the other calls Iaijutsu parry or simply Iaijutsu sever limb. Thats just my opinion or possibly make Iaido a skill itself.

Iaijutsu was changed for more reasons then just its name. Like I said in my earlier post its previous form was either to good or not worth it depending on how you read the skill description. We couldn't pair its current use with the old one unless we made it a continuous skill as well or made it a tag skill. Overall its alot of more rebalancing that would only push off higher lists longer and longer, which I don't think anyone wants at this time.

Oh I understand. Well then just make Iaido the skill Iaijutsu used like as a tag skill to be and keep the new Iaijutsu as well...the new Iaijutsu.
