Chambering/Parrying sideswings with a two directional weapon causes stab.

This so called suggestion is just very badly formatted, I can't understand what the shit you're trying to suggest.

If it's what I think, chambering sideswings with a two directional weapon would be extremely retarded.

It seems you have no clue whatsoever about how a spear can be used. have fun watching this: (it's to give you the bigger idea)

Are you suggesting that a spear/pike can chamber 3/4 of the possible attack directions?

I voted negative.
It seems you have no clue whatsoever that this thread hasn't been posted in the "Realism Discussion" so why do you even bring realism into the discussion.

My point still stand, it would be extremely retarded.

DISAGREE

They will do something else to reduce the 2H overpowerness.

Can only imagine the rage from random pike stabs that chamber a swing not even near them.

I can hardly remember opening this thread, but I guess what I had in mind was giving 2 directional weapons the ability to chamber sideswings.

Due to the turnspeed nerf, circling opponents with "2d" weapons with high ath can lead to benny hill moments, which is silly. Giving 2 directional a passive counter such as chambering sideswings would be nice. I think the stab would be most reasonable for such a mechanic as it is neither unrealistic and is a fun refreshment for gameplay, nor would it render 2d weapons OP IMO.

Am I the only person that's chambered side swings with a thrust... Maybe I'm just triping balls or the AUS server was just bugged out but I use to do it. I just had to be at 45 degree to the guy and on the side where the swing was coming from, or at least it seemed those were the steps needed.

It would be impossible to predict cause there is no suitable animation and therefore be extremely OP. Though it makes me sad that spears and hoplites are not as awesome as they were in real life, this might not be the way to fix it.

Although the two directional spears need a buff, the turnrate nerf raped them. The pike and longspear still work, but awlpike, ashwood pike etc. pretty much relied on helicopterstabbing.

I think the only way this could happen is from lag. You know sometimes it looks like they are swinging one direction and then it changes. It is possible they were thrusting but it looked like a sideswing on your screen or something like that.

I have seen this as well, although very rarely. I was never able to do it on purpose, nor do I know anyone who can recreate it. I think the animation which is displayed at your screen is simply wrong, though it would be nice to be able to reposte in all directions intentionally.
