DA2 Combat (Kinda)

[b]Full Description (v21)[/b]

Melee Chase improves basic melee combat for warriors and dual-dagger rogues by allowing them to close the distance to their target more consistently.

The mod uses BioWare’s existing grounded target-translation system. It does not add artificial launch forces, increase movement speed, or alter vertical movement.

This mod edits basic melee combat state assets for:
[list]
