As a 1H/Cav I did fine after the removal of the bumpslash vs anybody without a shield (though I was less effective overall).

Bumping a player already causes the mount to lose momentum, perhaps this could be enhanced further.  There is no realistic reason for causing the rider to be stunned, perhaps the horse could have a course correction or wobble effect if possible. 

From a gameplay perspective it is a way to decrease the power of 1h cavalry who could do with a little nerfing I will admit.  Lancer cavalry is stronger and much more popular and if any cav should be nerfed, it should be them (rather than the class I play of course).

Good bye HA.

Piercing damaging from horseback. Bump-shooting wasn't that good, however bodkins with any bow on horseback is a decent buff, one would think.
I voted Gurnisson cause of his fucking bendy pike, I swear noone can roflcopter stab like he can.

Gurnisson is right.

Bump shooting took a lot of practice. Was only really useful against archers.

So no...not bye bye HA  :lol:

Problem with bodkins is the reason I stopped using them was they were hellishly expensive on upkeep because of the increased arrow break chance.

if I could switch between quivers  ( future WSE feature?  :D ) I would take 1 quiver of bodkin and 1 quiver of barbed on my HA, use bodkin for the heavy armour guys and barbed for the lighter armoured guys :D.

That is the dream  :D I'd add a quiver of tartars though for the hell of it (I use 3 quivers).

Had fun shooting you off your horse tonight  :P

If the change to the long spears is true, then I will say it will be changed back soon. There is not a single reason any more to use a weapon which uses 2 slots, is unsheathable, easily blockable by having only one attack direction, appearently it doesn't even stop horses any more, and leaves you completely undefended if an enemy reaches you. Because you would have to rely on your teammates to protect you, sticking together and shit like this. Teamplay and tactics. That's not topistic at all. Nooooo...  :rolleyes:

All the changes from the last patch point to horse archers on armoured horses, and as soon as the riderbump is removed your missing teammates with pikes leave you only one choice: shield up and being trampeled or shield down, try to stop the HA and being shot.

Honestly, whoever does the balancing in this mod should think about... doing something different in life... because the solutions to balance things out become worse and worse. And although I always had the opinion that every damage inflicted by horsebump (or made possible by horsebump-stun) is lame, damaging the rider for bump damage is plain retarded. Sorry.

It does stop horses. It's an anti horse weapon.

Bumpslash is an important tool for cav and I don't think it should be removed.

I will uninstall cRPG and play War of the Roses exclusively unless these changes are made

Is that a promise?
