[Stats] Buff the Arabian Warhorse

[Wookimonsta]

Right, lets look at the stats of the arabian warhorse
hit points: 90
body armor: 10
difficulty: 7
speed: 41
maneuver: 48
charge: 20

This is a level 7 horse. The very epitome of riding, mounted death. Only the most dedicated cav can ride it. They need 21 Agi and they need to give away 7 skill points.
And what do they get? A very mobile rouncey. Seriously, its a very mobile, shitty rouncey.
The rouncey has more Hit Points (5) more armor (6) same speed, less maneuver (7) and same charge. Seriously? This is the best we can get? Thats not enough.
Now i'm not saying this horse should be as fast as a courser, or as strong as a destrier, but damn, it shouldn't be shittier than a rouncey. WTF?
Suggested stats:
hit points: 110
body armor: 20
difficulty: 7
speed: 44
maneuver: 48 (maybe 47 if you are gonna be assholes about it)
charge: 26
Cost: 450000

This may seem like its a big buff, but remember, this is the highest level horse apparently. It requires dedicated cav to pull off, and I think that dedication should be rewarded.

The stats shown here are not related to the poll. The poll is if it should be buffed in general, the stats are just my suggestion.

EDIT: Suggested price 450000, also poll reset with new info

A bit much what you demand as a buff eh?

[Oberyn]

I can only approved. Totally unselfish reasons of course.

Just 7 more maneuver than Rouncey, poor Arabian is completely useless

NOT!

[Lactose_the_intolerant]

good luck with that! eventhough on paper it looks kinda weak.
You do have to put 7 riding skill points, some people dont realise that. Its like people saying :" oooh that archer does too much damage, nerf!" the guy invested 7 PD!

But i have to say that when i used it i could perform nasty killing streaks

just bring it back to 6 riding skill (and desert horse 6, desert horse 6, thats a joke right?)

considering its the horse that has the highest requirement, yes.

[KaMiKaZe_JoE]

It should get a small hp/armor buff. Not so much as to make its niche--which I assume is "maneuverable lancer bundle of sticks horse"--irrelevant. This is assuming that things stay as they are...

Or, we could lower the riding back down to a realistic number. I figure riding should be proportional to a horse's efficiency on the cRPG battlefield, rather than arbitrary references to realism. The horses that promote the most ass-kickery should be the hardest to ride--reserved for dedicated cavalry players, and the horses that are less effective should be easier to ride.

In this case effectiveness should be judged by observing the way those horses behave in-game. Our understanding of which horses are "bestest" should be based on what actually happens in the servers, and should include the experiences of both horse riders, and their foes. If some tincan pussy (get it, because I'm not at all a cowardly bitch for riding a courser) can offer insight into the effectiveness of the horses which trample him on a daily basis, then that insight should be fucking heeded. Same goes for the people who initiate the trampling.

In other words, I'm almost completely ignoring OP's initial post so that I can vomit my ideas all over the thread, regardless of what anybody else will or is saying.

Can't believe you guys still cry like little babies while being on top every damn map...

On top using the arabian?

Two handers still complain about archers despite being on top... Everyone complains.

Twohanders are never on top whenever there's a decent cav. Only two twohanders that can score better than decent cavalry are Chase and Phase.

Twohanders are in the same group with archers. Good twohander/archer on server will top the scoreboard. Others won't. But average cav can easily be first.

[Lactose_the_intolerant]

i willing to bet most two handers kill, in average, more dangerous enemies then cav picking on peasent and late spawners

two 2h topping on cav map

[Leshma]

That's because there isn't any capable cav on that team (unless you count Wookie as one).
