New poll.

I picked two handers.

Two handers tend to be the targets of cavalry along with one handers
Two handers don't get shields so they get shot quite often.
Problems vs teams with long polearms due to generally short length(other than great swords) and inability to block a pike's stab and another direction like shielders
We're all nerds here, so it doesn't really matter.

Yeah if you want to play strat.. polearms/ranged/shielder is basically the way to go. 2h can still do just fine but fuck .. polearms just wrecks in a normal battle.

Depends, can be brutal for cavalry if it's a hilly map.

I have quite literally played every class in field battles exept for archer now. two hander is by far the hardest from my perspective.

where is 1h? most factions only bring really short shitty 1handers which makes running around in an open field pretty much the worst.

Field battles - I thought it would be obvious xbows - slow reload in the middle of an open field or on some shitty ladder cav can ride right up to kill you.  2her and polearms pretty easy open field, if you are worried about cav use a stabby weapon and it has really long reach for anti-cav.  Hell the easiest class in the game is 2her cav, 1-shot kills almost everybody with very little skill needed.  For melee, 1her shielders have it harder because everybody outranges them as people skirmish with long 2hers and polearms and they can easily get cav bumped to death with their short reach weapons.

Quite so. If they're voting seriously they're probably restricting themselves to using weapons like the bec de corbin or long axes or something.


Throwing isn't on the poll? There are still battles happening where throwing weapons aren't even included in the army, or when they are they're not the best selection, aren't heirloomed as much as the rest of the gear or are only included in small quantities as an afterthought. I suppose that's a problem not specific to field battles, though...

For me it's definitely 1h. Unless you've got a really good group thing going, shielding is pretty damn difficult in field battles compared to other melee types.
