Game Balance Discussion / Re: The Heavy Lance (Lost that lovin feelin)

Those missed registers aren't really a problem since if your build is not fucked up you can easily oneshot the poor guy that stopped you with a short weapon. A thrust of your one handed lance in his head when you don't even move, although it won't with any other weapon, even on foot. I don't know why heavy lances are so powerful when the lancer doesn't even move.

I think your perception is flawed because you didn't completely adapted to the slower speed.

I see where you are coming from, and I do still think it is a viable weapon.  Quite powerful too.  I assure you though, I have fully adapted to the speed and don't even mind it.  More or less just looking to see if anyone has been experiencing odd occurrences with their lance's performance.

Game Balance Discussion / The Heavy Lance (Lost that lovin feelin)

  I've spent 13 generations straight with the heavy lance as my primary weapon.  I grew accustom to the speed, reach, and technique of using it while bolting around on my courser (Frankbyfire).  It's seems to me that post .223 something has gone terribly wrong with my beloved lance.  I understand the purpose of dramatically decreasing every vital stat of the weapon for purposes of balance, but something is not adding up.  I frequently experience my lance strikes not registering and being out reached by much shorter weapons, while fully extended mind you.  Also, latency is not the issue.  I average 24 ping on most of the NA servers.

  I can cope with my issues here.  I am more curious in finding out if anyone else is experiencing these problems. I realize this may very well just be my perception.  Feedback however would be most appreciated!  Thanks all!

A build that has proven to be quite effective for me is 15/27.  5ps, 9riding, 3wm.  I have proven the benefits can out weigh the cost.  I would however suggest triple looming a courser and heavy lance before doing this.  This build also takes patience and precision.
