I hate new stab animation with a passion (although I laughed really hard for 10 minutes when I saw it the first time), because it:
1. Looks
horrible (as does new katana and nodachi models)
2. Has no range
3. I can't see the point I poke into
This is just plain awful. And please don't tell me that I am QQing because I am one of the "old 2h thrust abusers" (2h thrust abusers - what a bullshit
2h stab was weaker than 1h by far
). Katana thrust damage was already fucking feeble, it was glancing all the time and every 1h sword was outreaching it. Right now I'm mad because my weapon has lost one of its attacking directions and I never used miaodao or nodachi ONLY BECAUSE I NEEDED STAB ATTACK AS WELL. Saying that 2h stab was OP is just the same as saying that the 2h overhead is OP or 2h sideslash is also OP. It was just an attacking move and now we have lost it. With the old animation at least I could try to kill the horse rider and now it only looks like my char is jerking when he is doing the stab animation. THIS IS HUMILIATION
And btw why didn't you just reduce the thrust damage instead of animation replacement if it was so necessary to nerf 2h stab? And also I'm mad because new katana blade looks like a fucking foil sheet
WHY U DO THIS
And I think that people voting to keep this ugly M:BGish animation only because they hate 2 handers hard, I just have no other idea why they do this when the animation looks so terrible that even when I see someone in game performing that move I want to alt+f4 immediately. Show me any 2h user who say that this animation is acceptable? HATERS
