I don't know if it was patched in this or previous patch. As far as I can recall there has been no complaint about Lae'zel throwing the main character. She used to be able to throw my halfling a good distance, now it might be just strength related and I need to level up Lae'zel to get the feature back or it was removed all together. I know I can pick up Us with Lae'zel's starting seventeen strength.

If this was removed, un-nerf it please, there was no reason to remove this.
