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
That's the whole problem, I hear everyone speak on about how they dislike the cavalry nerf and how it was unjustified. But I am one of the only ones taking the time to defend our position. Like you.
Don't mind the fish.

Agreed, tack on some horse nerfs for cav as well for the next hotfix patch.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

Well, Sarranid horse only has manoeuvrability. Stinks at the rest.
I voted Gurnisson cause of his fucking bendy pike, I swear noone can roflcopter stab like he can.

True. the thing goes down really fast, even more since the archery buff! But any decent cav player wont be dehorsed right at the beggining

anyway. I get your points magikarp. But i dont think its worth really the fight! I believe the wrong item got nerfed but the class is still very viable. I could say why, but right now i cant be bothered.

anyway, i'v done more posting on this forum then i ever thought i would. see you in game

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.

This is the exact point I keep making :)
Lancing cavalry hold all the cards when it comes to horse v horse  combat. They need to stop whining about how hard it is for them now and try out sword and horse against lancers. They also need to stop goin "WAGHGHGH cavalry nerf" because the lances got some much needed debuffs. It is not a cavalry nerf it is a lancer nerf and as a cavalryman I am happy with it and want more!

This. That "penalty with shield" text was so epic!
Because you know, that's the only thing it added.

I mean that it did absolutely nothing (and it has nothing to do with our changelogs, it's hardcoded stuff).
We confirmed that just recently though, so it was removed.
