Title: Every inf should have access to anti-cav.
Post by: duurrr on February 07, 2012, 09:07:14 pm
Add a 1 slot, sheatable pike that doesnt do any damage to other infantry, only to horses.

Every inf should learn to stay close to people who do have anti-cav weapons...

Yeah, its teamwork.  It's not being a bitch, its being a team-member.  Pike users feel good when they protect their teamies from a charging lancer.  Shielders feel good when they run interference or block arrows for their team members.  That's partly WHY they chose to roll those classes.  Why deny them the satisfaction of playing their role because you don't want to "be their bitch".  That's a really messed up way to think of things.  Go play single player, you damn 2-handed spammer elitist.  :) :P

On the other hand, there are plenty of 2-slot weapons for anti cav.  Other than that, use teamwork or take cover so the big bad horsies don't get ya!

On the other-other hand, when I played cav I got dehorsed plenty of times by a well-placed 2-handed jump-strike.  Might take a little luck, but it can sure be effective.

well...

If you are 2H character - you have epic stab on greatswords. Cav is not a big problem.
If you are poleamer- you already have best anticav weapons
If you are 1H with shield - you can use crossbows, military fork, low tier throwing weapons (throwing daggers, franciscas).

If you prefer pure builds and too stubborn thrifty to use backup weapons - you deserve to die. This callin «natural selection»

I realize organizing public players into using tactics can be very difficult (it's usually just mob mentality, which can work if people group up and stay with those groups), but your idea is absolutely retarded.  The whole point of a game like this (and having different troop classes in the middle ages) was for tactics.  Every class and equipment has strengths and weaknesses, by working with teammates you can rely on their strengths to help counter your personal weaknesses. 

You can think of it as "being someone's bitch", I tend to think of it as teamwork and organization.  Good luck if you ever try to play any team sports, you'll need it.

All infantry has the best anti cav weapon available.
Moving in front of a charging horse.
Or teamwork.

Everyone has anti-cav weapon and it is called "battlefield awareness". Cav can't kill you if you're aware of the horses and you are not outnumbered and alone. Even if I like killing a peasants from behind with couched lance, I will give you this tip: Teamplay or die, that is the principle in this mod. Deal with it 8-)

Even 1h can deal with most cav (when they don't outnumber ofc.). Learn to block/downblock/dodge. If they kill you when you are unaware, then all the weapons you want wouldn't save you.

I lol at the people saying its easy to defend against cav with a 2h or 1h.

You clearly haven't vsed me on my cav char.

Only sheer luck will work for you with 1h/2h, otherwise only a spear will do the job against a good coucher

LOL Riddaren , tommy, and alot of other good cav.
Will NEVER (repeat it with me ) NEVER EVER EVEERRRR! be able to couch me if it's not from behind.
And not getting couched or lanced from behind is pretty damn easy to counter, It's called sticking with your TEAM ( now repeat it with me) TEAM TEAM I STAY NEAR THE TEAM!
