Cleave weapon

Just a simple suggestion, some weapons should have some sort of cleave ability wich makes the weapon cleave through several enemies not just 1? Maybe it would turn out to be OP, but if the damage would decrease per enemy it wouldnt be that op and only unbalanced slow weapons should have it...
Got the idea from slicing some horses in DTV ^^

wouldn't be realistic or balanced in my opinion. It also wouldn't fit the overall feel of the game. Warband is warband, not god of war.
So with PT >10 stones become simple too effective
:lol:

ever watch Deadlist Warrior on SpikeTV?  There are several weapons with enough mass that once you get them going they CAN go thru multiple people.

No.

we all ready have enough careless swinging no need to make it worse.... :P
I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

From a realism perspective it may not me an issue of cleaving through so much as slashing across.  What I'm imagining is a bardiche orglaive which could slash across the torsos of a few enemies.  I like the idea of a damage reduction though, especially since the primary use of the weapon would be the hitting of a horse and rider in one swing.  Loads of times I've tagged an ankle or shield when I was in fact aiming for a horse's bum or head. 


Cool idea, I hope some balanced form of it is implemented  :D

Ever watch that same guy swing that sword as fast as they do in CRPG?

I've suggested multiple times that 2h weapons get speeds reduced significantly but add in appropriate cleaving abilities.

I'd also love chances of being disarmed or weapon knocked out of your hands for blocking etc

I am going to vote no on this idea, simply because we will see rampant accidental tking if this is implemented.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

I was thinking that maybe great long bardiche could have cleave and german poleaxe (but add unbalance and reduce speed), not 2h... If the damage would be reduced by like 50% per cleave it wouldnt be that OP, it can simply be blocked since its so slow. I dubt it would increase teamkilling, like with all other weapons you just got to watch where you are swinging.
