So you're basically proposing to disable heavy lance (and further nerf the other thrust lances), hoping this will make cav more diverse and enjoyable? I'm not sure you've thought this through.

Make all "lance"marked weapons couch only...

What a stupid suggestion. Why should a lance (1.6-1.8 weight) be couching only? Most other polearms are heavier then them. Great Lance is weight 5! Don't fuck around with my beloved Light Lance!

Why not just remove couch from the normal spears and leave it only on the couching spears?

I thought about this too, as couching is kinda lame anyway. But still everyone would use Heavy Lance, that wouldn't change much.

The logic of war seems to be that if a belligerent can fight he will fight.

It would make some (Many) cav that couch only during the whole round having to use 2 spears instead of 1 doing both works.

War spear & red tassel aren't tough :)


My point is the only way to buff the couch only lances is to remove couch from the other ones.

Whats the point?

Heavy lance when stabbing has a longer range than the great lance couching.

Some (Many) use couching for 1 hit possibilities, unable to block them, easier to break shields, starting a couch while turning a corner well that's pretty much all reasons I know.

I start off with L, and go to HL if there are decent players on the map using it. LL is harder for me to justify nowadays. I never use the greatlance.

I used to LL all day, but since most players are awake to cav on the server I play, it's a bit pointless now I have to ride straight at people. GL is better in almost every way (cheaper, better range, better damage / lower rate of fire, can't use on bumpy terrain).
