If you really want (reader == "Urist" ? "polestagger" : "polestun") changed you should start suggesting how to change/with what to replace it.

[Ujin]

Dear Urist (?) , please change "polestagger" , (also falsely known as "poletun") to "no polestagger". Your biggest admirer, Writer.

One could suggest to make it so that polestagger only is allowed to happen when the receiving player is doing an attack animation in the moment of the hit. So it won't work against a defending or already staggered agent. Or one could propose that a stagger only takes place on a charged up foothit. But best is probably to keep yelling "NARF POLZSTUN".

This and reduce the total time the player is staggered.

[Grumbs]

Give stagger to 2 handers too, then we can all have fun getting free hits

Really though, I don't see the point of the game mechanic, just keep the weapons relatively balanced without that sort of stuff. What does it add? I'm sure good players will still own without the stagger and will increase the skill ceiling somewhat

Maybe armour could influence the disables a bit? Including the archer/crossbow stun and knockdowns.

If you improve the polearm left swing (by making it faster, or less prone to glancing) and increase the damage of the swings on the spears, then there would be no need for polestun at all.

[Ufthak]

The problem with the balance is as it stands now, polearm left is a horrendous animation and polearm right is only slightly passable. You still lose a few range on the right swing, and it starts way too far back, but it's not really an issue... The left swing however is pretty much a piece of shit.

Certainly if they're going to remove polestun but not fix the animations, they should at least change two handed sword thrusts to half-sworded animation EXCEPT possibly on the katana/heavy bastard/long. Although that would result in their thrust being FAR longer than the german/danish etc, which might just be... strange?

Is there anyway you could give a cooldown on polestun so that it either can't happen to the same person, or from the same source for about say.. 10 seconds?

[B3RS3RK]

I seriously cant believe all the whine on Polestagger, I bet most of the guys crying for removing it are 2handers...

[Aleskander]

Poles are way more powerful that 2h now. Last night I changed my main form a 2her to a polemy old friend. The difference is very notable. I'm faster, I have a longer reach, and I have polestagger. The only bad thing is that I do slightly less damage. I'm using glaive BTW, might be part of the problem.

Why do we need polestagger again? Whats wrong with ye old removal?

Agree with Teeth, also:

If you want to give something to "compensate", then why not just plain old stats?
