Long Hafted Blade on Horseback

[Rusty_Shacklefjord]

It's possible to swing the long hafted blade from horseback. This is clearly a glitch, and it has a glitched animation. In fact, I'm pretty sure that it would be physically impossible to swing a weapon like that from horseback. Not to mention that with 153 length it's ridiculously long compared to all other weapons that you can swing from horseback.

Remove the swings with this weapon. Make it thrust only on horseback like all the other polearms.

I would agree with you for the long version, however the short version seems remotely possible to swing from horseback.

I think he is just trolling. Just like in his "nerf throwers" thread

lol, probably one of the least used setups in cRPG, you have to be a master to find someone that owns you so hard to make a thread about this

Slashing weapon used by a cavalry heavy faction in native?
Give it stab only.

I love the play-style, but it's animations are awful. It isn't hard to own with it if you take a barded horse and heavy armor. Plus, nobody expects it, and noobs just down block your swings hilariously.

It's meh. Better to use a 1h really.

I'd prefer a swingable bec. It makes SENSE that you can swing it, not that heavy. And the :style:, it would be awesome.

lols. LHB is 2h polearm, which has the weakest damage modifier on horseback of all melee weapon classes. Its unique swing animation from horseback also swings slow. I'd use a lance instead if I wanted to max k:d ratio but trying to do what LUBU would do

I love the Long Hafted Blade and Hafted Blade very much. But I believe it should have faster swings on horseback
and
Of Course it's entirely possible, they did that in Ancient China =] (video kind of long, skip ahead if you want) and they're using Glaive's (GuanDao)

Lawl LHB from horseback Is for people nerfing themselves. It pretty damn hilarious almost as much as when I ride around smiting people with my elders torch hahaha I don't understand why anyone would remove an non-practical way of killing people.
