Title: English Bill
Post by: LordRichrich on March 26, 2012, 10:07:02 pm
Bonus vs Shield
quite an under used weapon, halberd is preferred due to extra speed. also, a realism point I know, but they were for ripping shields away, thats why they have the hook :)

Bill is balanced as is. One of the few weapons that doesn't need any slight changes to it.

although, totally buff it so my friend Uumdi can swing his MW one around for even scarier effect.

174 length, 31 pierce overhead swing, pretty solid.

 If anything was changed with this weapon, a successful overhead on cavalry should de-horse the rider. I believe that's what the "hook" was for.

Actually the only thing wrong with it is that people tend to block your overheads from behind. People need to give me room while I drill holes in heads.

I don't know if it's possible, but overheads should ignore cav shield forcefields, or reduce it or something. half the time you stop cav with it, you can't finish killing their horse because of the huge forcefield from the shield blocking all your hits.

also shield breaker would make it way OP, right now it's main (only big) disadvantage is that it takes forever to kill any shielder who knows you're there.

Wouldn't it be cool if the overhead would have a chance to dehorse a slow moving cavalry. Like the way hook on it was supposed to be used. And yes it is possible, Deluge mod has system similar to this. A stab to cav rider at high speed throws him off the horse.
