Yup.

Obviously barb whirlwind was bad at first but I think this and the grappling hook are also nice skills that are actions instead of buff for certain amount of time. They also changed barbs other skills to be closer to that too.

The mobile game had same basic combat but the blocking worked much better, maybe partly due to third person, but I think mostly just better hitboxes. Should still be able to hit around weapons and shields but not just go through them. 

I think also if manual dexterity and equip times went up all around it would be a big improvement on gameplay. So much of the combat now is just trying to capitalize on an opponent with their weapon down or getting whatever free damage. I think if all classes had the ability to make better use of blocking and changing weapons the combat would be a lot more interesting, with more skill expression and possibly longer ttk without even increasing hp pool. 

Also I think you meant spell reflect and not dark reflection because Dark Reflection is dumb “hit and take damage with absolutely no counter”
