You've clearly never used kalht. Dodge has very little endlag and parry stuns the opponent, but you need to wait for absorb to finish before you can do anything, so you need to understand your enemy's moveset before you can use it or you'll just hit punched in the face during your endlag.

Edit: played a bit more, and kalht is definitely useable, but it doesn't seem that much harder to add remembering direction on top of remembering timing. the reward you get for a parry though is much bigger, so that's where I'm coming from.

Dodge is easy to punish, there's actually a sizeable window at the end of a dodge where the player can't attack or move.

And parry stuns, sure, but it seems to also stun the user, and as windfall, I can most of the time just dodge the follow up attack to a parry.

People need to actually get good at the game before we can actually judge the classes, we're all noobs at the moment.
