lance angle, once more :D

[Mlekce]

Torben y and Oberyn and one GK guy are so deadly as lancers.
Arab warhorse and heavy lance with plate and you guys are untouchable. Almost every time i tried to kill you as 1h cav with plate i died in one lance stab or i got dehorsed.
You don't deserve any buff.

You can think of 3 good lancers. I can think of alot of good players for other classes.

arab warhorse was so op back then :DD

Was :  still is 

Anyways, lancing was alot more fun back then, but for fuck sake it was OP!!

Cant see why they should bring it back, since the new angle makes it a hellavu lot more challenging to play lancer

But as Torben said that was before the lance nerf(s)

I've played every class and cavalry is the most annoying to play by far, but the only way to see the outcome would be to put it into affect, but i'm not really for or against it tbh.

[Tzar]

It would be like bringing pole stagger back, same story both things are utterly OP.

But i admit it was way more fun lancing with the old angle 

Or staggering people to pieces with the GLA

If cav just wouldn't be able to slash while bump (Not like they used, getting bumped themselves, more like if they bump their weapon just won't do anything, shields would still protect them while doing so) and HX gets a nerf, cav would be just fine. Lancer-cav does just as good as ever, don't bitch about that =O

Sooooooo I was wondering.... after horses maneuverability,  lethality and survivability, and after lance damage being nerfed again and again,  after couching with thrustable lances not being a real option anymore,  after battlefield awareness of footsoldiers having increased a lot,  after hoplites and pikes having appeared everywhere,  HX  having popped up like little annoying zerglings (seriously,  HA used to be a problem,  now they arent even worthy of a mentioning poor bastards :/),  after 1 and 2h cav having gained the experience and skill to block down...

could we,  for the timeframe of one patch,  restore old lance angle and just see how it does these days?

pretty please?

I hate curent lance system because of that cowards that can only backstab you or aim for your pony,

and yes to that idea

I'm just going to leave this here.

You might want to skip to like 40 seconds in, this is just some unedited footage I uploaded a while back.

Yeaaa no, do not want.

The old lance angles are crazy but even if you brought it back that guy in the video still wouldn't have been able to do all that with the lance nerfs the way they are. An unloomed regular lance does more damage than a masterwork heavy lance so either use a reg lance or suffer with a heavy lance and force yourself to stab people multiple times to get a kill. With the rise of hoplites and playing as a lancer the reach is really needed but having to try and hit a hoplite 2-4 times without them hitting your horse well good luck with that especially since couches are useless as well. Had to couch some guy 3 times the other day and two of those were to his and he wasnt even in plate. I honestly would be happy getting the damage on my heavy lance back. Dont even want the couch damage back just so i can stab people and they die thats all I would really like.

The old lance angle wasn't even that far out really, it was less than 180 degree radius, that's for sure, probably closer to 135 degrees.  Wonder what it is now exactly, probably closer to 70

So, according to your logic, all shielders should be buffed because you're a terrible shielder?

[Smoothrich]

Keep lances the way they are, nerf 1hand cav, buff 2hand cav, problem solved

[Mlekce]

According to my logic lancer cav is fine as it is,and you talk shit that i didn't say.

What I meant is few players doing good with some class doesn't prove this class is good. Using "You're deadly enough" as an argument is quite ridiculous.

[ROHYPNOL]

I don't mind. The problems with cav don't origin from the lance angle, so it wouldn't make things worse for infantry. But cav vs. cav fights could become easier again. Don't know if this means they become more interesting. Guess not.

I have always told people this, totally agree sir...

Lancing is complete shit honestly, I laugh as now I respec to archer with my peasent gear and it takes probably 3 lances to kill me, 1 shot from 1h cav or 2h cav quite a bit...
