I will admit polestun/stagger was op and could of done with a nerf rather then just removing it and as for the spin stab thing I don't know about it so meh
I think that 90% of people will agree the long hefted blade was and still is the number one weapon that polestuns/staggers the most.
on a side not I love how GTX is giving everyone who speaks about keeping polestun/stagger -1 but its probably because it messed with his K/D so he has to quit and rejoin again
On a serious note I'm agreeing that the game was probably as close to perfect as it was going to get before this patch (I don't know what exact patch but it was definitely before this one) but still you can't really blame the devs for all the nerfs seeing as its the players who are QQ about each other and I saw this from some guys sig but cant remember his name and it said
"I'm rock, nerf paper, scissors are fine"
Personally that's how I see the players of cRPG including me every class QQ's about everyother class.
and for the guy who made the thread and first post, yeah allot of 2hers will just give you a -1 just for talking about polestun/stagger even though most don't come up with logical answers or even post but believe it or not some do and are quite smart.
I wonder how many 2hers are going to -1 this post
