Title: [Stats] Langes Messer needs another Thrust-animation if used in 2h-mode.
Post by: Fips on October 11, 2011, 05:40:02 pm

Give it the usual 2h-animation because it's just so stupid to see ur char using the polearm-animation for such a short sword. I mean, why the hell would someone grab that weapon with 1 hand on the blade and 1 on the liddle wooden thing (Lol, got no idea how to translate that xD). I don't know if there are any other short weapons like that with the polearm-animation, but if there are, change them, too.

That would translate to "the hilt" :)

I agree the animation is little weird, but it may be a balance issue with reach from the thrust.

Bump. Shortened Military Scythe got that weird ani, too. :O

Btw, i really don't think the messer will be that much better...it's still short as hell.

Because the langes messer was used to stab like that the blade on a langes messer was more flexible so one would grab it by the blade to stab to give it some stiff penetrating power.

Also I love the pole arm thrust on a sword it catches people offguard and is perfect to fient into and outta right to stabs and vice versa.

Yeah, what Linden said. It's insanely hard to block a langes after someone swings right and then follows up with a twist stab.

Well...i didn't knew that it was actually used like this. It just looked wrong to me so i assumed that the thrust must have been used in another way.
So we're done here, the poll does not have the result i was hoping for anyway.  :P

Or you could switch it and make a unique weapon just another turd, as the nodachi.
