Title: [Suggestion] Cavalry
Post by: Rangerbob on February 05, 2012, 05:15:18 pm
Heres some suggestions about fixing cav.  Just some ideas.

#1 Fix heavy cav armor.  it took 13 swings overheads to kill a champion plated charger with no rider with a 6 PS and a 43 damage 2 hander.  I'd recommend a 33% nerf on cav armor across the board.
#2 maybe slow cav down more after bumping someone.  I think this was done before but along with slowing acceleration it nerfed cav too much.  Maybe just add back the slowing a horse down 50% would work.
#3 Maybe add fall damage when dehorsing someone.  In real life you think flying off a horse at full gallop in heavy armor isn't going to hurt?

Here is a better idea :

Buff ranged closer (perhaps not to what it was) to pre patch standards
Buff footmen intelligence

I've got a couple ideas, too:
#4 Fix ranged damage to cav.  Revert the body damage back to pre .260 damage vs cav, but keep the headshot damage
#5 Fix melee damage to cav.  Make it so if you hit a horse in the legs, it does bonus damage.

Actually maybe this but only for polearms stabbing. Horses running onto a spear shouldnt take another 4 spear thrusts to kill (yes I am looking at you destrier).

Hint: It's already in this patch.

As a hoplite I am celebrating, but as a jav cav I am worried (a bit... I usually try to avoid spears anyway)
