as polearms stunlock you (glaive, awlpike, LHB, etc.), have feintspamming axes and poleaxes (like LWA, GLA, german poleaxe, poleaxe, elegant poleaxe... no unbalanced stat), can cover dps role (glaive, GLA, german, GLB spammers, so on...), anticav role AND excellent poke role with 245 and 300 centimeters long pikes, shieldbreaking role (see above), can-openers (bec de corbin 93 speed and not UNBALANCED... morningstar instead is short, slow and UNBALANCED), even blockcrushers role (long maul). only thing a polearm player should worry about is to not carry a too long stick for siege walls. but even a strength polearm build can be quite fast if you count the long stun between swings and the weight of the weapon stunning lighter weapons with overhead.
i know you rage about 2handed elitist BS but this time, the real OPness is polearm.
EDIT:
and we'll go on repeating all the same old shit over and over... until you get it.
What does any of this have to do with any part of what you quoted me saying? 2hers facehug better than 1h/polearms. That was the only thing I commented on in your quote. So what's your babble about?
Honestly, have you ever tried that? Because I cannot do it with my longsword, really...
Yes actually, it's my go-to tactic with my warcleaver of all weapons whenever I see a 1her. Facehug HIM and slash away. He glances on me, I full damage slash him, fight is over. Aim up or down, don't just swing at his center mass and as always spin/turn into the swing. You shouldn't glance with your longsword either as it's better stats overall, though perhaps it's just because my mancleaver has a semi-decent cut value.
Bottomline: 1hander is still the best choice for both veterans and new players, especially in terms of price to value ratio.
Wasn't arguing this fact, lol. Especially with Strat here, though I might argue that a good crutchthrough build is better for strat in many situations than a 1her, but 1her is absolutely more useful overall.
but I doubt it, and Gorath is never honest
Yet unlike you I've been a 2her that posts about the parts of my class that are strong without lobbying to make it seem underpowered. Your bias is showing far more than whatever random bias you think I have against....my own class?
You're still a raging moron, but I never expect(ed) that to change.
2h/polearms hit your midsection, why don't you test this in duel, just see where the basic swings land you'll see I'm right
L2Aim somewhere other than dead center ffs, lol.
Gorath, I've a mission for you. You'll enjoy it.
Take a balanced 2h build [your build is, iirc], grab a great maul. Block once, then castor swing Hilt-slash lightsabre people.
Funniest shit ever. It won't glance, even if you start the swing touching them. The likelihood of knockdown is hilarious, and as soon as a big hit happens you can forever-overhead crush them unless they get a quick swing off after being hit.
I've never felt dirtier as a player.
I'm way ahead of you. I'm actually respeccing asap to abuse the great lol fun. My build is balanced, but only 18/18. So I'm redoing the stats to go 21/18, or perhaps I'll straight rip off Palatro's great lol build and go 20/21. Long maul doesn't seem to be quite as abusable, but I think that's more because it only has 70 speed instead of 80 like the great lol.
