Enough is Enough... Nerf The Bec De Corbin or Buff the Danish Greatsword

[Son Of Odin]

They're not going to, simply because of the inevitable shitstorm.

Statistics would be interesting things to hear, but there is always an asshole who draws conclusions with hesitation and then implies that "something must be done to asdasdasd because these statistics clearly show blablabla and that means wololoo etc etc..". There is always atleast one asshole who does that... And the other assholes follow him... And then comes shitstorm.

Spook, the 2h animations are far superior. I'm sure they aren't perfectly balanced, but that one difference is what drives up the greatsword's cost. You can argue all day that the animations are not superior, but you'd be wrong 

The length of the danish is also a big advantage.

[Xant]

The animations being superior is debatable. They're longer, yes. Superior? That's far from a fact.

QFT, stop using your opinion as a factual argument.

Not many people use the bec on NA either.  The only thing going for it is that is has 34 pierce and over 100 length.  The only way to get those pierce numbers is with the steel pick, and it's short as fuck.  93 speed isn't fast, every 1h basically is faster.  And almost every other 2h sword out reaches the bec (if you include the animation lenght, which you obviously need to do).

Well, like said before in another thread, polearms are much more prone to having stuttering, jerky animations than 2h. Good duellists are also, on average, much less used to polearm animations than 2h animations (a metagame advantage). And polearm rightslash can be made to hit even before the animation, so it looks almost instant. Perfect for hiltslashing. Then there's the thrust, which overall is likely worse than 2h stab, but it has its own specific advantages over 2h stab as well.

And no, I'm not asking for a nerf or a buff for any weapons.

I was actually only interested in what you had to say,  dont worry ^^

[Xant]

Yes, that was mostly to stop any polearm fanatics from frothing at the mouth and writing all the advantages of 2h (which has many as well) thinking I'm out to nerf polearms and buff 2h.

[Torben]

ya,  wise move i guess.  fanatics everywhere.

[Dezilagel]

Indeed, depends on how you define superior.

Polearms have really clippy animations in comparison to most weapons, especially noticeable with extremely long/fast weapons, which fucks some people up.

2h have really good animations length-wise and good sweetspots + I find hilting much more viable with 2h (even though they nerfed it )

1h have, imho, really confusing animations, that look the same and with the speed of 1h make them hard to block (not that anything is really hard to block nowadays...) + the leftswing which is ultra-fast and hits the head more often than not.

Most people who use greatswords know what they are doing

What kind of bs is dat??

Anyway.. I'm ALL FOR MOAR STATISTICS FOR TO FEED THE MOB! These forums are dying! We need more life and opinions!

PUBLISH THEM.
