Don't chase people who backpedal. Just let them back away, out of the fight, because I guess that's fun for them.
You think you're pretty smart with your dago mustache and your greasy hair.

I fight as a 2h with my mw heavy bastard sword because its like a freakn light saber when I get swing it at people it's often too fast for them the trade off for me is it's length which is 105 I think. But even with that length I can outstab a lot of pole arms and generally do so especially against war spears and glaives. It's not so much the animation makes it longer as it makes it easier to time and well it is longer. After being hit with a polearm they're a few I can't recover from and glaive is way too slow to get free hits on me unless I just keep charging into the incoming swings. Fighting the range on polearm for means when I charge them I just have to block first and stay close so I dont get outreached. Honestly the only polearm I think pole stagger should be taken away is things like the war spear were it is possible to stun lock people
My horse is named pebbles and we like to try.

how are the 2h animations superior? they are longer, yes. but superior?

It's not just the length that's superior, but the way the weapon swings and blocks. I feel as though polearm swings are much easier to predict.

Enough of this two hand versus polearm crap. Two handed weapons are long (YES THEY FUCKING ARE THEY GET BIGGER SWING LENGTH BONUSES!) and generally do more damage. Polearms are shorter, weaker but have annoying things such as pole stagger, bonus vs shield and extreme longness :).
VERY nice boy :)
