It appears to make up for that by being the longest 2h in the game.
Flamberge = 153 reach,
This is 130 reach.
despite the polearm thrust, in comparison to a 2h thrust, all swings of the flamberge would be longer.
Therefore, the only way for this to exceed the reach of a flamberge would be if it had a 2h thrust.
It's slower than a nodachi, and does 3 less on the swing, yet costs a hefty 4k more. I think it should do atleast 43c on the swing, possibly even 44.
