[Goat_Fighter]

21/15 is the best for every class if up limit level is 30 

[Goat_Fighter]

alright thanks

I don't think 24/15 is a good build for a piker,

I recommand you 15/24, 18/21 or 18/24

[Goat_Fighter]

well im going to retire at 31 so, ill go with 18/21

I always loved my 15/24, probably not the best but atleast I can win the round when I'm last man standing vs 3 katana spammers (I believe macropus was included there too).

my dear macropus

Definitely want to run an agility-based build. As a pikeman, your focus should be on support. Also, you can roflcopterstomp folks a lot easier with high athletics.

That's not hard. Just run away/block until macropus tk's his allies and then cheer as he gets 5/5

Forgot:

My last pike-focused build was 27/12. Hit like a truck (always aim for the head with a pike btw), although you move very slowly.

My thinking was that the length and weight of the pike would slow me down anyway, so low athl wouldn't change much. Pike is one of those weapons were you either need shitton of athl (8 or more) or kill them in no more than 2 hits (9 ps or more).

About facehuggers: Nudge them or kick them. Carrying a sidearm is strongly advised too, for the Pike pike. Long spear can do ok-ish without a sidearm.

wonder if I had 39/3?

[Grumbs]

Speed is probably the most important thing for long spears and pike. You mostly just want to get a hit in so your team mates kill the guy while he is stunned. I find slow weapons easier for aiming at the head though, so you can do that for more damage. I don't think high damage is a pike's role tho imo. The longer the weapon the slower you move, so 39/3 with a pike would be funny but you will switch to your side arm all the time.

[Torben]

it absolutely depends on your style.  i'd go rudimentary 21/21 @30 with athl & ps maxed and 3 wm,  and then see what style you play and if you want more str or athl next gen.

it's definitely possible and lethal, I remember some guy on the china server using it and he was rocking it.
However, know that the incoming patch will fuck this

[no_rules_just_play]
