Twohanded lance

[EponiCo]

Add a lance (can be just a copy of existing lances) that is used with both hands on horseback. It looses reach, but gains speed and damage afaik. Would be funny to play, and apparently some riders used it that way.

+1, though don't know if it's hardcoded

[Wulzzz]

Fun as in roflhopping from 1 inf to the next and 1 hit them?

I got like 60 body and 6 IF but i still loose like 85% of my health by most lance stabs(not couches).
It needs more a nerf than buff

Yeah you wish, so you could annoy lancers more easily =).

Pole arms are just flat out used in one hand when on a horse.

Horse Archers dont get a say in this

Why not?
Cause we can inflict 99% damage to tanks?

probably, and that's a shame that some people can't accept the advantages of every class, though i think that HA's have some more advantages than other classes. but i accept HA's for what they are.

It's just massive QQ

Getting boring

.. how? ..

you sure you werent reading about them bracing a lance with both hands in preparation for a couch?

lances were not often used to thrust so any text you read probably is talking about couching


not to nit pick but i find this idea terrible given the current two hand polearm thrust animation

Haha, it's currently more like running around with javelins in melee mode (you can do it already, but only once and without turning). Heck, make it exactly do the same damage and speed, with only the shorter length, I'd still use it.
