Title: Make 2H Hilt/Pommelsmash Do Damage
Post by: njames89 on March 30, 2016, 09:37:18 pm
I propose adding a small and reasonable amount of damage to the 2H Hilt/Pommel Smash

The game has a very interesting and functional animation for a 2H hiltsmash. (Hold an upswing and nudge). Along with nudges and polearm shoves the hilt/pommel smash is another great game mechanic that can help make combat more realistic, complex, and fun!

Pommel the plebians!

I think I would rather they make it functionally the same as other offensive nudges (shield/1h/unarmed).

Maybe against light armor, but i think crushthrough damage could be a bit broken. Not sure though, maybe worth a try.

I'm kinda against any bash that does damage mostly because its almost like getting a free hit on an opponent.

While pommelstrikes are a little difficult to accomplish, I still don't agree with it doing damage.

I am more for giving it practical uses.

Possibly have it immobilize the target like all bashes did early in development?

I agree here I am thinking damage similar to nudge against lightly armoured players.

Yes very nice idea they must add this feature.

Before:
2h nudge only usable from overhead held attack stance

After:
-usable from all "held attack" stances
-it can chamber
-it deals minimum one damage after armor soak and stuff

problem solved, 2hmastertace becomes 2harianrace

How do you expect to pommelsmash from held stab? Also the chamber part makes 2h weapons chamber twice, which is way too powerful.
2h is already OP, especially with a spamwhore build that makes the sword swing faster than light.

Is damage done dependent on the opponent's armor?

yes, pretty much like fist damage it needs STR + armor, enemies need armor only I believe

The only 2h nudge does damage right now. It's not a lot, and the amount depends on weapon weight. It kills peasant armor level guys though.
