Great lance

[Tzar]

Is there any point in looming dat thing?

I use it just for shit n giggles when i get tired of using my 1h.

But its usually only archer filth, that gets ones shot with it. would 5 more pierce make a difference, when going after inf  :

Ive used to remember a time where it would just about one hit anything. Guess it got nurfed.,,,

Speed bonus is what makes the great lance deadly. Don't lance anyone running from you, you'll deal 5-30% damage on him. Moar riding. Target guys that think 2H lolstab (or an awlpike) can outreach it and come at you. I don't think looming is worth it unless you have everything else already loomed.

Great Lance was the most OP thing on strat by far, on EU1 is kinda meh, as even a 1H sword can onehit most people.

Yeah they nerfed it's damage awhile back I think. They also nerfed the couched lance damage multiplier too.
