Long Awlpike was always better weapon than Long Spear but people are like monkeys in general so they tend to copy what others do...

So is this being removed or not?

No, its going to be switched toa  percentage chance based on weight of the horse and the level of riding skill (courtesy of IRC chat).  I think this is a great addition to skillfull caving (have been playing almost exclusively my cav alt since patch hit)

They should do the same for infantry, if you're in heavy armor you shouldn't be knocked down every effin' time...

Wearing an additional 30 kilos of stuff is going to help when an unarmoured 800kilo or armoured 1000kilo horse not counting rider says "move?"

Here in the southwest where I live, if a horse or a cow moves towards you, you don't really have a choice in the matter.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

It also seems simple enough from a math perspective. Hidden bonuses taken into account, heavy lance has ~20 cm on DGS stab. All you need to do, then, is to get your horse out of the way, which you do by turning.

Umbra, for example, is more skilled 2h than Murmillus or Caffein, so knows how to use thrust better than them.

But yeah, maybe some actually good cav could say what they think. I saw Ironlake lurking the thread earlier but he didn't say nuthin'.

I'm more skilled than the lot of you put together.

cav was already of really little use in strat, and 1h was already too much weak. Can't understand the porpouse of this change, it just make 1h cav a not doable class, and horse lancers a lot less fun.

I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

Because as me, I'm guessing he has a sense of humour and also like me finds this thread incredibly funny.
