I totally agree and support the thing you cannot sheath huge weapons.
Who can fight by carrying 3 meter pike on the back ?
Epic bs.
I also think that if you couch your lance and hit an enemy,your lance should be disappeared .
After couch it rather stays on the body cuz it went thru too much on body/armour or your lance should break and become unusable again (For the same round.)
Think of a cavalary couching or watch some documantaries or movies you'll understand what i meant.

About lances breaking, does that add only to realism or is there a gameplay perk/balance reason to that?

Its more of a realism thing I guess, then cav will have to switch to sword after using the lance

Then in this case I vote no.

[HarunYahya]

Well just couch if you dare losing your lance it adds both realism and balance imo.
If something is unreal it is unbalanced.
If there was throwing pikes or throwing flamberges wouldn't you want them to be removed ?

[Fyre]

If something is unreal it is unbalanced.

So real medieval warfare was balanced, eh?

I guess every single sci-fi game is also unbalanced then, right?

[ManOfWar]

A guy with a pike loses it when he sheaths it, a guy with a lance on a horse never will drop his lance, SO, the reason for a breaking lance would be to compensate for the guy with the pike being more likely to drop his weapon than the horsemen

Lol just lol. Epic troll.

Cavalry isn't exactly pwning the crap out of everyone either, unreal, so imbalanced!

I've never played with a pike, so I don't know, but I'm fairly sure you keep a pike when you sheath it. At least in the current patch.

I like how all these big posts turn into discussions on what to change about cav...To the people who want lances to actually break after every hit...they didn't. Jousting/tournament lances are meant to break upon impact. Actual lances people carried into battle aren't meant to break after one use.

About the 2 slot or even 3 slot items...I'm not so sure how it will play out, so I'm hesitant to say if it'll be a good or bad change. I think that if someone is carrying a very large item like a pike or a siege ladder, I would prefer if they can still carry other equipment, but if you bring that big item, it starts in your hands and you actually have to carry it. If you want to access the other stuff you're carrying, you need to drop the said pike/ladder

+1 , cavalry already can dominate the battle servers for hours on end if you get 5 or more decent cav together.  With so few carrying pikes after this next patch this would help balance cav, as their 1-hit kill capability can only be used once.  And  yes galloping full speed on a charger and couching someone witha  lance it will punch through an enemy's body (why its 1 hit kill) and would get stuck, you are not just going to just pull it out and couch someone 10 seconds later and then again and again and rack up 34-2 records (seen a lot of cav doing this recently) because the only counter is to have everyone pike up but then the enemy infantry attack you while you have a pike and you either have to try fighting witha  pike against a sword and shield even if you have 1 wpf in it or switch to your primary weapons which is when any decent cav will finally charge you and couch you when you are about to melee.

Read better next time.Lances break this is for real so as pikes...because they are not titanium only wood.They break if an angled vector forces it too much.(Sorry for fail english i hope i made my point well )

[Christo]

I could accept pike/lance breaking, but only if the lolswords will break too.

The servers are full with roof camping  ranged my old friends and you  talking some crap about cav ..troll more

[Gurnisson]

Lancebreaking is probably the dumbest idea I've ever read/heard. Do you think cav is overpowered? The only time cav get those scores you're talking about is when the other team consists of individual idiots with a serious lack of braincells. If a team plays smartly, cav can't do jack shit, I.E. cav doesn't need a nerf. Also, on a side note, couching doesn't always one-hit people.

Also, I'm not cav.
