Cavalry is clearly way overpowered

i dunno - im havin fun trying to dehorse cav and i will run to the cav-fight area to specifically do that

And he hadn't actually seen the new cav lance angle in action yet? So uh.... your point was, again? Are you trying to tell us that bjord can't see the future? THIS CANNOT BE!

my point is that many infantry players think they know what needs to be done to the class they dont play... i assumed he knew about nerf of the lance angle that was coming, and thought the days of the cav are over because the true power of cav was obviously the side thrusting, same thing was with other arguments that caused nerfs

when its all come down to being more mobile than inf on the maps, picking up fights you want, unawarness of large portion of enemy infantry

and you cant really "fix" those

Which is ridiculous, cause why would you want to sit on a horse and stab, when there's an awesome, hard to master fighting system in place for infantry.

The thing is, cav has maneuverability, they will always continue to get the drop on those that are unaware or those already in a fight, without endangering themselves much. Which causes my respect for the scores of cavalry to be really low. If I see a footman get 20/1 I'm amazed at his skill, when a horseman gets that, its no big deal.

The best way too nerf cav, would be giving them more noise, and implement a decent sound engine. But thats not going to happen.

Second best option would be what Thomek suggested. Nerfing maneuverability significantly and buffing horses hp. So they have to think ahead, although giving a little more room for mistakes.

See:
For sides.

Yes, and apparently both "sides" have warmeetings where they discuss strategy? And whose "side" first decides to insult "loses"? Because both "sides" act in cooperation and have decided beforehand what to say?

If cav are far away they're nobody's problem.  If cav are too close they can be slashed.  If cav are lancing they can be piked.  If cav are hovering, waiting for an opening, then they can be shot.  Cav are not overpowered.

From my limited experience on EU battle servers most players over there have no clue how to anti-cav.  Perhaps somebody can make an instructional video showing what the standard builds can hope to accomplish against horsemen?  It may be a useful reference video for these threads.

Pls great NA, teach puny EU how2anticav.

Too bad we do not have any servers with pings the same for both sides so we could actually see who is the noob here.


edit: counter bumpslash, i would love to see how you are able to cover yourself, try to block, try to hit something and avoid being bumpslashed....

Except mine, because I'm usually in the flanks with a katana unable to pike, slash or shoot due to various reasons.

But I can't complain too much.
