English Bill and Swiss Halberd needs love.

If anything, the Ashwood Pike needs a buff into usefulness. At its current state i see zero reason to take it over any other weapon in any situation

I think the pokers are near OP, certainly not underpowered.

Evidenced by the almost dozen players that use them heavily?

Increasing the swing damage of the ashwood pike is about the only buff that would not result in it being an awlpike/long awlpike.

The ashwood pike looks awesome but who in their right mind would use it over warspear or pike/bamboo that's the problem imo.

A bunch of shogunates armed up with swiss halberds today on crp1 and crpg5. Worked wonders.

[Vexus]

They were using the bill.

It's not used a lot because they don't fit into the usual playstyle of most people, which is being able to solo mobs of enemies (they still fail at it, but they think they have a chance if the take 2h/the favourite poelarms). Honestly, when I'm meleeing, the worst enemies are the ones backed up by pike/bill and so forth. They are AWESOME support wepons, the problem is that people don't wanna play support.

Yep, they are the terror of every 2hander. Some have even shield break bonus.

you can argue this about several other weapons with similar properties... but they are all much cheaper. You forget to mention these two weapons are some of the most expensive polearms in the game.

That would make sense. Or remove it entirely if devs need item space for more awesome stuff instead.
