Long Axe Stab

So, someone changed the long axe stab to 21 cut.

Why? Is it a bug, or intentional? The long axe is my favorite polearm behind my battlefork, but the stab does just about nil.
(It wasn't great before but at least it wouldn't glance 100% of the time.)

Were the old stats 21 pierce? I think that makes more sense...

I find the long axe to be OP. Extreme speed for a polearm with over 40 cut damage. The weapon is not meant to be used as a stabbing weapon and is only there for you to use in special situations. If you don't like it then don't stab. I find the stab to still be useful, not for heavy hitting blows, but rather for stunning the opponent and doing a small amount of damage while I'm at it.

The "Long Axe", the one that costs like 7k and is 97-99 speed? That thing has had a cut thrust for as long as I can remember. When I had an heirloomed one, I really loved the fact that the thrust was cut damage, I don't know why exactly. Anyhow, I am pretty positive that this is no recent change. Either that or I'm a CRAAAAZY MAN

Used the Long Axe for two gens and heirloomed it to +2. It has had cut thrust for as long as I can remember.

Just checked the recorded item stat changes. As far as I can tell, it has never had a pierce thrust.

I think I caused the pierce misunderstanding, don't care what type it is. 21 cut sounds like a joke.

Blunt damage seems like it makes more sense for the weapon, and does not seem like such a stupid balance decision either.

I guess part of why I love it is because it is so weak, so silly, and so unique.

Never pierce, I thought at one point it was blunt stab, apparently I was wrong.

My point still stands; the stab is horrid.

Blunt would make more sense, the long war axe is blunt.  If it has such a crap thrust, I'd say it should be removed completely, but then again every pole arm has thrust, except the great/jousting lance.
