Bec and reverse mode

[Penitent]

Bec gets knockdown on reverse mode.

No other pierce weapons get knockdown on reverse mode.

I suggest we remove knockdown from bec, or add it to things like picks.

That's all.  Pretty simple really.  Doesn't make sense from a balance perspective to have one weapon get it and not the others.

Edit: The only primary pierce weapons I know of with a blunt alternate mode are the bec, military pick, and steel pick.  That's mainly what I'm referring to.  Fill me in if I missed any...

In all weapons that have alternate modes, the alternate mode is inferior to the primary mode by just a little bit.  With the bec, the alternate mode is actually better.  This is what I'm talking about.

You've never actually looked at any of the pierce/blunt weapons in game I take it?

the Poleaxe, elegant poleaxe, long spiked club, warhammer, military hammer and the geodendag all have a combination of pierce and knock-down attacks

I'm referring to the military pick and steel pick.  On both of these pierce weapons, the alternate mode is clearly inferior to the primary mode by a small margin.  With the bec, the opposite is true, so I think it should be adjusted perhaps.
 
Which are you referring to?

I'm talking about primary pierce weapons with a blunt reverse side.  I only know 3 of those -- bec, military pick, steel pick.  I could be missing some though...

"Look at the other weapons"
"What about the goedendag"

ok, thanks for the discussion guys.  I will keep these things in mind when I think I notice something inconsistent!
