UI'm using the pike now, it's way faster than the heavy lance and has more reach.

Can be used from horseback ? Can be used with shield ?

LOL, you thought using a pike was allowed? Haha.

My thoughts are either: bump the speed up a bit or tweak the heirlooming.

well I kind of knew it's not allowed but didn't read an admin-thread about it so far.

A nerf?  You realize of course that the lower speed a weapon has, the more movement bonus damage it gets.  This was a significant buff to heavy lance damage in almost every circumstance.

Not when trying to stab multiple opponents in a row, not in a quick pace cav battle and most of all not when dismounted.

Yeah, they should nerf it's damage too (to match other lances, -1 or even -2 damage would be correct number).

It sounds like you're the one having the most trouble lancing from horseback.

Lances are 2-spots and will drop if you try to sheath it.

I don't care much though. I'm more annoyed that polearms went 2spots while crossbows didn't. I thought the whole idea was to nerf hybrids.
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Heavy Lance nerf was bs.
Do not cry like "But 190 reach is too much !"
Only thing you have to do to avoid it is holding down block.
But yeah it is too hard let's just nerf the damn thing...

You would need to show some hard evidence of this idea to convince me. AFAIK movement speed is calculated by the total difference in speed the second the attack tip touches an opponent.
So with PT >10 stones become simple too effective

I would find it hard to believe this qualifies as a buff. My heavy lance has been failing to kill a lot more targets than it used to in the same situation before the patch.

But whether it's properly balanced or what, I don't know. I know I'll still use it and will be fine. My horse is the weakpoint if anything, not my lance.

My only concerns in the game are the lack of throwers, the fact that archer heavy teams seem to dominate (though much of that may be from shields being rather rare), and horse archers being very hard to hit even when you've got a good run on them (though lag effects are probably the biggest culprit here).
