Surprisingly the biggest whiner seems to be you, ToD.
I whine about all the whiny little bitches who complain about everything and anything under the sun, and if and JUST IF the next patch fixes what they are whining about, they either say "no I want it back!" or "Oh I found something else to exaggerate about and claim that it is breaking the game blah blah blah I refuse to adapt my playstyle and won't shut the fuck up blah."
I rarely touch the "suggestion boards" or "Game Ballance" forum for a reason, just a bunch of fucktwits claiming that "The other class that I rarely play and only made a STF alt on pnce or thrice is clearly OP" or "That weapon that keeps killing me a couple times a day? OP"
Somehow, whenever me or my clan mates play, we don't notice "HOLY SHIT AN IRON STORM OF PROJECTILES COMING RIGHT AT US! Oh we survived... SHIT TEN BAJILLION CAV LANCED US IN THE ASS! Oh we survived... ARRRRRGH PIKEWALL we is deadites..."
That is my problem. All these stories of "I rarely get to melee and I end up dying to a piker if I do" means you seriously suck ass at this game and should find another game. If I can get there all the damn time with a zero shield 4 ATHL poleaxe character all the bloody damn time and usually get at least one kill before going down, or get there with my 5 ATHL 5 skill SHLD character and usually get a kill before going down, then how in the living fuck can so many of you fucktwits fail at this?
You have a thrice damned TILD KEY, so USE IT to avoid cavalry RAPING YOU IN THE ASS, and listen to your teammates when they say cav behind if you have teammates.
There is a billion and one fucking massive objects in 95% of the maps between you and your enemy, and you practically have to go OUT OF YOUR WAY to avoid them, so how in the fuck are you getting shot so much? Use your god damn cover and stop being so fucking impatient that you outpace your shielders, try walking BEHIND SHIELDERS since on the NA servers even RANDOM PLEBS GET THIS CONCEPT so whty in the nine hells am I seeing clanners that are so thick witted that they run out in front of shielders against the so-called iron hailstorm?
Oh shit there are pikers... well... Try using foot work (I know, really fucking hard concept) and stop attacking so much and just block since the time between attacks is not blindingly fast for pikes and longspears, so just CLOSE IN and then take ONE SWING and then BLOCK ONCE and then ONE MORE SWING like any other fight.... I can get that fighting groups of pikes/longspears is difficults.... But HOW THE FUCK are you people so fucking god damned aweful that I am starting to see bitch posts that say "I fought a long spear guy one on one and he killed me! Yeah he lolstabbed me at point blank and DESPITE THAT THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS I keep posting that I don't expect them to be able to attack that close so I will NEVER EVER EVER attempt to block them at close range because I AM AN INCOMPOTENT FUCKTWIT."
TL:DR version
You are all fucking retarded idiots who complain about everything from Mauls to stones to whatever raped you in the ass form a skilled player using it...
