Problem with couched lance is that it grants free kills to already lame OP cavalry, all they have to do is to rush to group of people fighting and voila, free kill...

Yes I am an archer with little athletics and the only fucking thing I have to defend myself is a hammer against a couched lance

Well things are tough all over then aren't they. You don't take athletics, you can't easily dodge a couched lance. Trade off, like someone said before.
Meaning lies as much
in the mind of the reader
as in the Haiku.

It's like i'm psychic or something.

"Hey devs, i chose to make a build with low mobility and a lot of power, could you change the game so mobility is no longer necessary? Kthx"

Get some athletics, problem solved. I'm an archer with no ps, but considering that the trade off is me having 8 pd 7 wm 5 athl I think it is ok.

Stop blaming problems of your build on game balance.
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.

Fuck that! I'm on a horse and there is no way for me to attack an aware pikeman with my melee only build! It clearly is because pikes are imba and shouldn't be able to attack horses! Also why come people shoot me when I'm on my no shield 2h? That's just BS too! And it should be banable to kill an archer in melee since they don't have as much melee skills as the others so it's really unfair for them!

This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

Sounds like good suggestions for the realism forum!

my dear friend.  a man comes straight at you, with his lance lowered and a wide chest towards you,  you are an archer,  and you try to dodge? -.-
use your weapon.

Yes, I know from whence I came! Discontented as a flame, Upon myself I live and glow. All I grasp like lightning flashes, All I leave behind is ashes
Flame I am - that much I know!

A better solution is to have ath, dodge and shoot him in the back when he poses 0 threat.
