Is this a massive dev  trolling ? Nerf the heavy lance , now cav  "one hit"  with light lance ..

difficulty: 11

speed rating: 65
shield width: 190
thrust damage: 27 pierce
swing damage: 17 blunt
weapon length: 190
Couchable

difficulty: 9
speed rating: 90
shield width: 175
thrust damage: 28 pierce
swing damage: 16 blunt
weapon length: 175
Couchable

Its no different between 175 and  190 weapon length,  cav is a doggy style class.

Cav is easy mode and fast kdr booster allways have been allways will be cav is like vultures eating anything that gets away from the herd and dont carry a pike...

If it was up the me they shouldnt even be allowed to carry a pike/lance only a size 5 rubber dildo  :lol:
I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

This. Every time I am fighting a light lancer I have a massive advantage due to that length. The extra 15 length gives me so much grace for my timings that it is not even fair, and the enemy horse goes down almost every time.

Yes, the heavy is slow, but since on a horse you go for high speed passes and not hit-block-hit-block sequences, speed matters significantly less.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

OMG OMG OMG
Why are you called developer?
Ok here the best comparsion ever

Light lance: is ultra fast now, thats ok. If you want to fight infantry as a Cav.
175 length
2,5k gold
90 speed

Lance: Is fast now. Cappability to fight Cav and Inf as a Cav
180 length
4,4k gold
80 speed

Heavy lance: is ultra slow. Cappability to figth Cav as a Cav
length 190
6,2k  gold
65 speed

I love the new ballancing. Each 5 length points cost you 800Gold, understood so far. But you lose 7 speed every 5 length points, logical.
Ok lets switch to the new "superior" lance, the Lance!

The heavy lance though with side thrusts (extreme side thrusts, keep your body rotated out 90 degrees to the right for maximum reach) can outreach most pesky polearm users and the majority of the jump-slash jack-in-the-box tricks that dehorse people.

They really are two different weapons, the heavy lance is not better or worse, it merely has a different specialization.

Yes indeed. For close ninja lances against infantry I like the light lance, and against other cavalry I switch to the heavy if the server population is high enough for that much cav or if certain infantry players infamous for dehorsing are playing.

i think it changes the play style of heavy cavalry a lot so i switched from lancer to sword cavalry.
and btw guys this morning i saw a long awlpike user on horseback and i thought wtf, and now i see that a lot of the weapon specifecations that are written under every weapon in the shop. aren't true in most cases, they should fix that for the whole site.

it brought nice balance between polearm/1h cavalry. before polearm cav was the only way to go (especially when morningstar lost the crushthrough). now both have pros and cons.
