Title: Double sided lance buff
Post by: FRANK_THE_TANK on October 30, 2011, 07:37:42 am
Its range makes it useless for couching, with the exception of ambush couching.

Its short length is an advantage in the chase but, its expense puts it out side of the budget of a light armor courser, which is the only place it really fits in.

Its a good horse harasser but because of the turning arc issue until WSE can open it up a little it still sucks a bit for that job.

If it has some more punch then it will give it the kind of hit it needs to cut up the heavy armored night mares. lol get it, its a horse pun.

It may need a speed nerf if that thrust buff was given to stop it competing with the spears. Drop it down to 89 or something around there.

Ugh, I don't want to have to deal with a 35p stab on  a polearm in melee, fucking polearms already have 0 recovery times between hits, that would be a god damned nightmare what with all the full strenght point blank stabbing for full damage already going on.

32p is scary as fuck already. Not every weapon should be top tier.

I gave a +1 for the pun, but voted no to the buff.

I just wish you could backwards thrust with the double sided lance.

This. Would make it awesome without unbalancing it!

Reverse thrust for win. Poll coming shortly.

That would be crazy funny though. Top strike for backwards stab down strike for forward.

"On mr horse man you a right behind my what ever shall my poor bottom do!" *Stab stab stab stab*... where is this going.

Anyway you get the idea, and much gaiety was had by all. Oh and that mean horse man got stabbed in the eye.

You see my whole problem is that horse battles have become a joust off, which is fun. But it was way more fun when it was like Tie Fighter hooning all over the place on your white Ferrari or you Arab doughnut machine. Stabbing and thrust like a vigilantly on Viagra. Could do that all day, I mean the thrusting with Viagra bit.

I hold out much hope that this lance, which I have only just started using will open a world of thrusting excitement! But some times I thud on the freaking iron giants because of the speed annoyance when rolling up their back end.

I say buff the katana stab from 19 to 21 pierce in mw stage.

Normal katana got 18 p. Mw katana got 19 p. WTF!

What would be good is if it didn't have the poke limitation, ie locked into the same range as couch.

Really that is what the thing was made for. Its able to be spun around with one hand, with out letting go of it so you can stab down to your right side with an over hand stab and across your sheild  with left.

It should have a 200 degree arc. That however won't be able to be done with out WSE.

I WANT WSE NOW!!!

Nope. Only server side. Most of the stuff is impossible or very hard to code unless they make WSE client side too. My guess is we are getting it together with the launcher/patcher/downloader they talked about.

He wasn't asking if it was there clientside or serverside, it's there serverside and working (terribly, straining the shit out of servers making them incredibly laggy and unfun) so I told him that WSE's already there, because it is.

Well actually I was more saying, I want all the funky stuff that was going to happen once WSE got into the wild. I haven't seen said funky stuff, so I figured it must not have been fully rolled out yet.

I stand corrected?

The useful thing for the double sided lance would be to make its side-swings do a substancial more SLASH damage amount. Afeter all, that's partly  what a double sided lance is made for ... slash with the blade of the tip (big one). So i would say that 30 slash damage for side swings would be ok, provided that it is a 130 length polearm, it will be balanced (faster than most big polearms, small amount of sideswing slash damage, so balanced)
