Polearms vs Two handers

[Kafein]

Tor was (does he still plays ?) able to :

• Block
• Hiltslash
• Nothing else (to be fair not much else was needed)

Definitely not a great player in my book.

[Thomek]

Blah I'd say just nerf longer weapons.

Backpedaling=extra hit AND safety by distance makes them too powerful.

Having an easy time nowadays with a LHB and ninja gear..

[Gurnisson]

So little respect for Tor, disgusting! The best player to player to ever have played cRPG

[Falka]

Tor

Definitely not a great player in my book.

As I said, mediocre player, making 60-0 on Eu1 by accident.

There are minor issues with 2h I agree, but its nothing serius. I often get the feeling that Panos is over-dramatizing every time there is a discussion about 2h. He's always going into "PLEASE, SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!" mode. Its the animations that makes it the babies first c-rpg class. But its definately not as bad as it used to be. I am still very pleased with that patch that buffed 1h some time ago. It was needed and the difference is quite noticable imo.
 
But polearms? I dunno, I use the most usual polearm ever with my alt and I do alright. Not every class is ment for dueling people. Time to get over that "everyclassmustbeequalineverysinglewayever" understanding.

I consider myself average player, and I really find it annoying everytime a lower skilled player kills me, just because he is using a 2h.

Look at all those "great" players, all of them, have something to abuse, either lolstab, either hitslash, either ghostrange, and the list can go on and on.

And yes, every class should be equal, because that would be the only way to show to the world who truly is a good player.

Once again balancing an entire class based on greatswords its dumb. Not all 2h are over powered by any stretch of the imagination.

Don`t nerf 2h swords, just give polethrust to all greatswords. Plain simple

Are you implying that there's nothing to shamelessly exploit about polearms ?

At least all cut 2h do above 30c damage.

I consider myself average player,

I`m better than 90% of your clanmates.

Including you. 

So you lost your skill in that few minutes?

I can understand that people lose skill when the dont play for weeks or even months, but you are a freak out of the line even in that matter how it seems.

and I really find it annoying everytime a lower skilled player kills me, just because he is using a 2h.

And I really find it annoying everytime a lower skilled player with a big polearm jumps around and hopes for one lucky hit to kill my guy with his one-hander that barely can cut butter and then gives me names and complains about me being a backpedaller.


Deal with it. Getting annoyed is part of this game.

Are you going to tell me how fucked up glaive is ??

If yes, well done sherlock.


Glaive is shunned amongst polearmers, thats why u rarely see it on the battlefield.

The glaive is just the tip of the iceberg. All long 4D polearms are just as broken.

What am I? Pro? Not even close. What getting killed by lowbies 1vs1? Or by getting ganked, in which case it is perfectly normal that someone with the longest pointy end gets the kill? Personally I dont share your experience. I appear to be getting killed by the same players I always do, nomatter what weapon they use. I have seen how some noobs to pick up 2hs, in which case I dont let it bother me and their arse still gets mounted on my noobplayertrophywall. Could it be that at those times you encounter le wild noob with 2h you just loose your cool and do stupid mistakes. Also some people with certain huge vendetta against 2h, will remember only those times they get killed by 2h, so they could use it later to fuel their hatespeeches.

[jtobiasm]

Can anyone explain what polestagger is please.

Also polearms don't even compare with 2hs apart from the versatility

[pepejul]

When I play 2H I m raped by poles...

When I play Pole I m raped by 2h...

This afternoon I was in my full +3 gear with longawlpike MW and long axe, I have been raped by...a pikeman !!! in 1 VS 1 duel... He kicked me and poke ma head fast...

Don't care about weapon...a noob is a noob...
