Make the Flamburge sheathable!

Atleast at one point in all of our lives.. We have pondered the age old question: "Wait... Why can you sheath glaives, long hafted blades, awlpikes, great long bardiches, long bardiches etc. And not the flamberge, yet all these weapons are longer?"

I have thought that just now. If you people litter this thread saying "balance reasons", you obviously must be deluded. The great long bardiche is better in every way (+1 speed, +3 reach, bonus against shields sheathable. So think of that first. Kthx

It is better or equivalent in every field except thrust.

Flamberge:
weapon length: 152
weight: 4
difficulty: 18
speed rating: 86
weapon length: 152
thrust damage: 24 pierce
swing damage: 46 cut
slots: 2
Can't use on horseback
Can't sheath

Great Long Bardiche:
weapon length: 155
weight: 3.8
difficulty: 18
speed rating: 87
weapon length: 155
thrust damage: 18 pierce
swing damage: 46 cut
slots: 2
Can't use on horseback
Unbalanced
Bonus against Shield

Lets see then.
Great Long Bardiche is:
-Longer
-Lighter
-sheathable
-lower thrust damage
-Faster
-Bonus against shields.
-Unbalanced (not a bad thing, depends on playstyle)

Compared to the flamberge.

Hah, "Unbalanced is not a bad thing, depending on your playstyle." 

Yeah, one of my playstyles definitely revolves around not being able to block as well.

Why does a ninja care for the flamberge?

Is this a subtle katana buff thread?

Block? I can block fine with any unbalanced weapon. It's just different feinting to me...

I don't use a flamberge, it just seems silly that you can sheath weapons that are longer than also have 4 attack directions.

You can't sheath it because there's no "flamberge on the back" model. If you sheath it, it disappears into your back pocket.

You can't block with an unbalanced weapon until your attack is finished.  It's a pretty clear disadvantage.

GLB range is lower due to animations.

Right swing.

Also, you misspelled "Flamberge," OP.
