Dezi if your down swing is chambered by a 2h stab then thats blockable because it's slow, overhead is unblockable in crpg from another 2h. It was the other way around in native stabs chamber blocked by a stab was unblockable, but that was fine because stab chamber blocks are pretty easy to re-chamber. The main problem is that the GLA seems to 1 hit kill most stuff. But my main problem is the glaive, 160 range and a backpedaller is just stupid. Leave them alone is fine unless they have a crossbow or they will come back and hit you in the back later.
Yeah an overhead chamber from a fast weapon may prove unblockable so what? Nice to have something to end the endless duels at times.
As for backpeddallers - just leave them alone or facehug them to death, sure the hardcore ones are annoying and you may need to block a couple of times before you're in range but remember that if he's backpeddaling, you're the one with the power to disengage. This is very important to remember in battle.
I am on no "crusade", I am just tired of everyone saying 2handers are OP when quite clearly they haven't seen how crap they are against polestun.
Don't listen to the whining friendly archers and cav
2h aint OP.
It is possible to net yourself a free hit with the GLA, Tor has done it to me a few times. Warspear/hafted blade users should not have to rely on polestun to win, it should be a capable weapon in it's own.
Yes polestun is bs, and yes we all want it removed but it is apperently not possible atm. Also - proper hilt slashes can get you "free swings" aswell.
I also must add that polearms also have the versaitility of having the same WPF as a lance user, which shouldn't concern a full polearmer but is very versatile for cav. This should be compensated for too in some way.
Yah, this I can agree with, but I don't think pole inf should suffer just because cav have an easier time hybriding with pole, you with me?
I dunno what's possible with WSE, but maybe have a seperate wpf collumn for lances, pikes and 2 att dir poles?
Hmm... I dunno :p
