Because horse archers aren't putting the full weight of a one-hit lance thrust on their spine when they turn around to shoot.
i am confused... i look at the lance thrust, most of it seems to come from the arm.
alternatively, give much faster ability to couch, so we can couch more often.
I fucking DARE you to try and stab at someone on a fucking 90 degree angle thrust.
In real life Couches usually broke the fuck out of your lance too, so if anything we should reduce the speed at which lances can CHAINFUCKINGCOUCHES already.
Except 40 degrees actually makes sense.
And couching is already a free kill on anyone that doesn't have a shield if you know how to aim, how would it be fair to reduce the cooldown?

well, whats the reason for cooldown? is it stamina? are you too tired to do it again?
Reason for cooldown is so that instead of skilllessly insta-killing 5 guys in a row, that can't do shit about it if the cavalry knows how to aim and if they have no shield, in 5 seconds, you can only kill 1 in 5 seconds.

seriously Bulzur, your (as in plural) allready made nerfHA HA HA HA HA !
-precision
-damage
-speed shot
-arrow speed
-weight of arrows
HA cost at least 8 skill point than a pure inf. So buy a shield, and use it, or stay at home, cultivate potato, and tell your grand childrens how a great warrion you could have been if all but your class had been nerfed .....

I think in the beginning Mount&Blade was morel like a mounted archery simulator and Armagan and friends put alot of effort in it to get it right.
i guess you have vast experience with how lancing worked so you probably know what your saying, and showing a vid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkXMkJ1rBhg) where guy demonstrates lancer attacks in all the different angles wont probably mean anything in this debate
On a stationary horse with a 'lance' that amounts to a toothpick? :lol: Go out and try and hit anything to the side while actually riding the horse and make a youtube vid. I'll be looking forward to it in failblog :D
they would at least
put 60 degree to light lance
50 to lance
and 45 to heavy lance.

thanks for putting "realistic" fix in a game filled with unrealistic things such as jumping attacks, circling around inf, 360 spin thrusts, archer jump turn over shots, tip of polearms stopping horses when hit in front even from sides etc etc
OH BECAUSE STABBING THE AIR IS REAL FUCKING DIFFICULT.
OH GOD I STAB THE AIR, MY SPINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
HA
+high mobility
+can shoot cavalery's horses pretty easily
-less powerfull that every other build
-low armor
-no shield
-can't aim on right like crossbow or thrower
-use at least 8 skill points more than a pure class of something (exept heavy cav)
Lol, enough with bs about ppl not able to hit wider than 40 degree.Those are 'drills' on a stationary horse. IRL 'thrusting' with a lance (and trying to keep and hold on to it) from a moving horse would probably not turn out well.

Just have the foot archer use bodkin arrows (for +4 pierce damage), and a melee weapon (to block down when lancers come), and the horse archer use a desert horse, no melee weapon (can pick them on the ground easily, whenever he feels like it) and barbed arrows. Same armor. Same equipment price. Same repair cost, since arrows break more often. Same strength ? No. Ha stronger.HA has to pay for his horse Bulzur (frikkin expensive if you want a decent on). And put extra points in HA which requires more agi. So they should probably have an advantage over foot archers. Though we all know archers got nerfed. If they were fixed perhaps you wouldn't have such a hard time shooting horses. Though I still find it easy enough when I'm on the ground and honestly can't see a real basis for an argument from that pov, considering you can down horses faster now.
you do know that the mongols in real life were able to just turn 180 degrees aswelO.o
O.o
So we really need a buff? :P
