Title: Le Awlpike
Post by: 7000bc on July 11, 2011, 09:27:22 pm: So I heard that the awlpike got -5 damage :cry: But on the website, and ingame the damage is still the same. Have they nerfed it and it doesn't show, or did they forget to nerf it?

Post by: DrKronic on July 12, 2011, 03:30:28 am: they need to lower alot of the spears as they are now the "old" katanas of the game(war spear, red tassel spear, awlpike, etc)

spears in actuality are crappy in single combat because wooden shafts aren't like the quasi-titanium ingame that can block 18 great axe blows, vs swords/axes spears tend to break or get their pointed ends chopped off, honestly all spears shouldn't even have side swings as whoever bludgeoned someone in history with a spear(hint its no one)

ingame however you have crazies bludgeoning people to death with spears like it was a club and crotch thrusting at 1 milimeter range for full damage because of the hitbox problem with pikes, honestly just based on the fail hitbox all spears should get a damage nerf

yea take it down a few notches, spears should be great in team, horse rear and shield use, but bad in 1v1's

Post by: Cyclopsided on July 12, 2011, 03:51:22 am: Shorter spears like warspears and such were not bad in 1v1. Not sure where you heard that from. Spears are really good in 1 v 1 combat IRL. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_IIHlFOEiI

And if the awlpike got nerfed like that, that would be retarded. Spears are supposed to be able to thrust for high damage. Their swings should be rather poor, though.

Nerf my swing, buff my thrust.

I love you Marathon

Post by: hotcobbler on July 12, 2011, 05:03:10 am: I agree with Marathon as well. However, I would add that the ideal situation would be adding and overhand and underhand thrust, and taking away the overhead "smash" that most polearms have now. I heard that might be hardcoded though.

No, it would just have to be for ALL pole arms as it is the pole arm overhead animation... and poleaxes doing an overhand thrust is silly. No, it won't happen until WSE if ever.
