So armor values don't make any difference between the two? Like a pike won't pierce them easier? that's the only thing I'm worried about, as I won't be using much PS, as 5 seems fine for a pike

General Discussion / Pikes - Are they a special polearm in themselves?

Hey guys, I've read various things where people talk about pikes being different to typical polearms

I usually play a 15/24 pike build, but am looking to maybe make a slightly faster build and switch the pike for a long spear

Is there much difference between the two? or will they penetrate armor the same? I know Pike is obviously longer, and slightly weaker, but is that the only difference? I know in M&B WF&S, a Pike can break through armor much easier than other weapons, but is it the same in M&B Warband?
