Give Longspears a high stab that is up-blocked

I don't use a long spear. Also it's the shittest weapon you can use for 1vs1.

I use the Pike and Long spear all the time. Its what I do. That said, this is a bad idea. The long spear is effective for what it is:

Anti-cav and infantry support.

It does not need any buffs, of any kind, as it is completely effective on the field in it's current state.

Try making a support only build and choose only a support weapon and then go around bragging around the forums with your k/d. 

See, I dont think there is much supporting in cRPG. There are weapons that are less effective in a 1 vs 1, but they can still rack up kills in groups. What do you mean with a support only build? All builds have a weapon that deals damage, when you are succesful you deal loads of damage, thus kill a lot. Thus K/D is skill. Please name one of these support builds of yours.

The only one I can think of is a long polearm weapon, like a long spear. It does 26p whenever you succeed in 'supporting', its not exactly supporting when its deadly.

So it's not a support build cause sometimes you get kills? Ok... my bad.

Lol. I and Siiem made longspear STFs and our K/Ds were perfectly fine. Killed a LOT of people in 1v1 too.

So if long spear is such a great dueling weapon 1vs1, it is good support weapon on groups and it can counter cavalry then why is it that a pikeman always switches to another weapon when they go fight 1vs1? I've seen like 2 guys who dont carry a backup weapon for that reason. Not to mention that only noobs have lost against a pike 1vs1. If these claims were true about pikes then it must be the bestest weapon ever yet there is only few of them compared to other classes.

I understand you see a support build as something that isn't succesful in a 1 vs 1. A longspear character's purpose is stabbing people, when is a longspear character succesful? When he is stabbing people. Who is the better longspearer (support build)? The guy with 15-3 or the guy with 6-8?

Everyone's purpose in this game is dealing damage, there are no builds that do not have dealing damage as their main purpose (exception is a 13 shield build). Everyone's purpose is essentially getting kills. Some choose to hunt game changers and might get 1 kill that wins the round for them. So K/D doesn't perfectly cover someone's skill, but still it gives quite a good impression of someone's skill.

I believe I'm making perfect sense here, please tell me why if I'm not.

[Joxer]

My build and purpose in the game is not to get kills. I couldn't care less what my k/d is.

What is your purpose in this game then?

[Siiem]

What is your purpose in this game then?

To make troll threads about long spears so he can hide his inferiority complex.

[Joxer]

Yeah that 

[Phalanx300]

I agree. Why shouldn't you be able to duel with a long spear anyways? Makes no sense.
