Long Voulge

[Zandieer]

Now, I only ask for this: let us use it from all directions! Just like in Native. I miss my ol' Voulge

Now, if you shout "TOO LONG TO SWING!", let's look at Scythe. It has 10 more length, but still swing-able!

"TOO HEAVY!". It's only 0.5 heavier, surely if a peasant can swing a scythe, a 18 str guy should be able to swing this.

Now that those two a covered, let's get to this: "OP!". Sure, it's long, and does 37 cut. But, we can lower that! And make it slower, 80 maybe?

before - weapon of an amateur. After nerf - a useless weapon, worse than budget.

I still sometimes use it, it's fun but way too slow for it's 2 directions.

[Sarpton]

Blame Strat for the nerf.

There, fixed it for you.

[Zandieer]

Blame Strat for the nerf.

Yeah, I thought so. How about making it bit worse AND making it more expensive?

There, fixed it for you.

Haha, yeah, I remember everyone talking about Bars using it, I personally never saw him ingame (pretty new in this game).
But I do remember using it back when it was 4 directional, it was my favourite weapon a total beast against cav..

I seemed to run into Bars a lot on the duel server.

It maybe should a bit faster and not unbalanced but sideswing ... no, scythe is made for swinging because its for working/ peasant stuff

[LordRichrich]

You put this in realism section? It'll never get done

Don't make it worse.

It didn't need to be cut down for strat, that was completely pointless. Sure it's a cheap effective weapon good for mass deployment... how is that a problem, strat is a strategy game. You bring sizzor I bring a rock. You bring 30 guys with LV I bring a bunch of high end archers and blow them all away.

I like it how it is, but it does need a buff. A BIG BUFF!

If it's going to stay slow like the Bard then it should hit like the earth is ending.

Add 5 cut and 2k cost and make it a skull crushing death machine.

Or give it +3 speed, but don't leave it how it is.

[CrazyCracka420]

No Frank, it doesn't need a big buff, just allowing it to swing 4 directions again would be good.

[Largg]

Frank is right, the weapon is just bad. Even though it is a cheap weapon I can't imagine any sensible guy wanting to use it. A decent buff to overhead cut and especially weight could be a good start. Currently the 37c is worse than some than some small 2h axe. Voulges were popular weapons for a reason.

And big no to 4 directional swings, that is just retarded.

[Froto_the_Loc]

Give it four directions but make it slower!
Who the heck thought a slashing weapon should only have 2 directions?!

[Zandieer]

Bump for justice!

[Whiligelm]

Fuck it. I just wanted to play back in cRPG after a long time, bought the voulge and thought it worked the old way, and now I found this topic..
