Actually, after training the sword&board on the duel server a bit, jump slashers were the easiest people to kill.
A 2h who didn't jump at all and just knew he'd hit me first was impossible. Playing sword & board cav is perfectly viable on the battle server, support and backstab, the problem is just you have or had no advantage against a lancer at all, they can do all that just fine, and you must outmaneuver them completely to win a cav vs cav fight.

Jump slashers are noobs, theyll just get killed easily, same on polearm builds. People who use their manouverability on the ground are the only ones capable of countering us effectively.

So, let me get this straight.

The Whiners who can't pay attention have won today.

First, you complain that we changed things people whined about...

Those were the issues the community whined about.

... then you complain that we should only have changed things people whined about.

DOES NOT COMPUTE.

Lol, you didn't quite quote all of it did ya? You got whine backed up by hard evidence and whine because people simply can't play the game.

Just admit you are wrong, computer.

The first one is called constructive criticism, not whine.
You're in the second cathegory, by the way. :)

Whatever, go to duel server and challenge me to a cavalry fight, well know who has more knowledge of the class.

Call it whatever you will, it's still the same, with a different name.

The speed nerf I can live with, but the damage nerf and heirloom scaling is downright wrong.

ADMIT YOU WERE WRONG ROBOT.

So you whine for hours about one thing, then completely change your mind and whine about something all devs agreed on (and some even wanted it harsher)?
Just stop embarassing yourself. :|

All devs agreed on? I think not, I've seen more than a couple say they were against this. Moreover the quick rollback of our animation shows your 'support' for the nerfing. I didn't change my mind, but merely seeking a compromise. You already stated speed isn't going back to what it was.

You ignoring my challenge shows me you never played cavalry last patch, I bet you don't even have a horseman. And it's a fact that you haven't given me any argument that validates your statement at all.

Don't mind the fish.

Well, playing a lancer is still perfectly viable, just tried it from my mounted archer, you just have to get used to the different timing. Leed did some 29-4 scores on the same map.
I don't know if there even was a damage nerf on the lance, not iirc the old stats right, but all heirlooms have been nerfed, don't see how that is unfair for anyone.

Did you even read my post? I was talking about the "damage nerf and heirloom scaling".

Risen_Sir_Charlemagne. Why do you ask?

I'm not saying I'm mighty, merely stating that as a skilled and good player I can back up my statements without making any error.
That the devs fail to see why Sarranid Horses needed nerfing instead of the Heavy Lance is their problem, guess Ill still abuse it to show them.

Edit: Yes I did cmpx, and reacted accordingly, what didn't you get?

Magicarp please stop whining 24/7... a few posts to state your opinion is good, but right now, i just think you're making the devs want to nerf cav even more :D
