I won't offer anything extensive since the original poster did a good job of framing the uncanny momentum to damage efficiency of the enchantment. I will, however, say that I agree with the points they made -- and that the damage reflection needs to either be less potent or require more momentum investment from the character using the enchant.

The real meat of the issue is that if you're using a melee weapon and aren't a duelist with access to one of these skills, you're effectively doomed

Even if this might sound like hyperbole, it's not far from the truth. Outside of extensively annoying kiting/healing, the raw value of the enchantment can be insurmountable without an ''I ignore this guard'' button.
