Ladders should be replaced by stakes in battle, stakes should be deployable and undestroyable and should wound horses and slow down infantry, they provide enough safety for archers for a period of time, but it wont help them when the main body of infantry comes up.

This really is against ninja nature, because darkness should be when ninjas are at their best, but I find night maps really annoying. I have a hard time seeing the enemys attack direction. So yay for less night battles.

I dont see the problem, 2H cant outspam ppl that have a bit of agi and a decent speed weapon. I used a balanced katana with 21 agi and 159 wpf and I couldnt outspam a shield user. Outspamming as in, attacking so fast that he cant counterattack me even after a block. If you get spammed its due to your own fault. 2H dont have a speed advantage, only the katana does and it has shit range, but is stylish as hell. No 2h has the advantage on reach damage and speed over other weapons.

I've done it.  Manual blocking is pretty easy once you get the hang of it.  Shield users are at a disadvantage.

Most people dont think it is, otherwise I wouldnt get as much kills while im only mediocre at manual blocking.

Good afternoon living shadows.

After trying out ninjaing, which is pretty awesome, and careful consideration I decided that being a Ninja would make my Crpg life more complete. Therefore I humbly request you to accept me so that I can backstab my enemies for a good cause!

I would like to be known as Ninja_SgtTeeth if you think I'm worthy.

but i will say its alot harder post patch but i do like how it weeds out those weak 2h who relay on spam and little to no skill

Was it even easier before patch? I started 2handing postpatch and I still find it much easier than 2h polearming. Maybe its because i play siege mostly but I dont have that much trouble with throwers. And ninjaing with a katana is just too much fun.

Suggestions Corner / Re: maybe eazy solution on archery/throw op

« on: January 17, 2011, 03:45:56 pm »

Im a shieldless 2h and dont have much trouble with 1 thrower, they arent that hard to dodge, you should indeed just spasm with the mouse and theyll miss a lot. Of course you do get hit once in a while, but hey you are a 2h, what do you expect. Throwing is a bit overused, not that op, and should be made less attractive but not nerfed. The thigns you suggested would really kill archery, btw this should be in game balance discussion subboard.

« on: January 16, 2011, 11:19:06 pm »

I won't say throwing is OP, but it should be made less attractive by higher price or higher requirements, cause throwing is a bit overused. Eight out of ten people have a throwing weapon nowadays. Im a shieldless 2h, buying a shield is not an option. It messes with my awesomeness. I accept that i get hit by throwers once in a while, but this is a bit too much.

« on: January 16, 2011, 12:11:04 pm »

I'm really fond of the Nodachi, it does very good damage, has longer range than GG and requires only 11 strength. If you want to go high agi its a very good sword. Of course you miss the thrust attack. I'm not the best manual blocker but I get k/ds of 3 with it, just by overheading people already in a fight with one shot. Can't wat till I get it heirloomed.

« on: January 16, 2011, 12:07:20 pm »

I'm all for adding new gear, as long as its in a reasonable historical time period. Roman gear is from a different era and I'd say its a bit ridiculous. But if roman stuff gets added, I want greek stuff too. I'd love to see hoplite warfare.
