Impossible to profit as cavalry.

[Siiem]

Best advice is to get 2 horses one for +x3 using and one for -x3 using... and a plated charger for when you nominated a leecher at x5 and got yourself x6 xD last one does not count in

[Huey Newton]

Courser
Heavy Lance
Italian Sword
Bascinet
Scale Armor
Mail Gauntlets
Splinted Greaves w/spurs
Heavy Kite Shield


its a matter of knowing when to use your horse. You can't go cav every round its a matter of budgeting yourself on certain maps and situations

[Casimir]

white tunic over mail + destrier / arabian and heavy lance and spear, i made money overall

I would say that HA is more costy than average lancers, coz of the additonal cost from the strong bow and bodkin arrows.

The weapon alone cost me around 23k, not even counting the cost for my horse and armor.

Just the price u gotta pay to be a complete asshole.

[Jarlek]

The Strongbow is 7,896 and the Heavy Lance is 6,237. Remember that the heirlooms does not increase repair cost. Although bodkin Arrows are 5,058 if you take the bodkins (twice if you take two stacks), the lancer also have a backup weapon too.
Not to say that HA is cheap, but it's not 23k just for the weapons.

[MouthnHoof]

Cav should never have to resort to running around on foot due to lack of money.

Right. and the solution: add a cheap donkey so they don't have to walk and make them ride it in reverse facing the ass's ass.

Courser, Light Kuyak, Nordic Helm, Heavy Lance, Leather Gloves/Boots, Long Hafted Blade

Keeping finances steady, unless I get unlucky with courser repairs (yesterday for example got 4 courser repairs in a row, fml)

Using a courser and a lance and nothing else, I am losing money. This is unfair to cavalry; horse price should be decreased.

MY class is too expensive not fair, lower the price of horses. I guess when you change class it will be MY sword is too expensive lower the price.

what gen are you how long have you been playing? Let me tell you a secret this game is not about playing the exact class and equipement you want straight away. Its all about the grind, the grind for gold, the grind for heirlooms. Play one, two or maybe 3 gens in medium armour and a cheap weapon, then when you get to 500k you wont even notice the repairs on your courser. I play pure 2h and in my full gear with Lordly Trans, mw Danish etc. my repairs usually go between 1k to 2.5k a round. I can break even most of the time but sometimes i decide to wear shitty armour just to make some money coz i went down 50k in few days due to weird balance, just couldnt win etc.

Plus the amount of horses on the servers atm. suggest otherwise, it seems the cav and archer class are cheapest to play judging by the amount of players playing it. so no dont lower the price of horses, raise it because it seems its easy to own a horse these days.

This is an impossible statement. Do the math.

(Btw, I do believe you break even, but your average repair cost is well below 1k)

its an average ofcourse sometimes i get 350 gold only but very rarely.

my sword repair is about 900 gold and he gets repaired 80% of rounds.

my full gear consists of:

Nikolskoe Helm
Lordly Heraldic Transitional Armour
Lordly Scale Gauntlets
Iron Greaves
Masterwork Danish Greatsword

well i still leave the option im wrong my assumption was based purely on the feeling, im no matematician.

oh yea and i still claim loomed items get repaired more often even when i have only one equipped (again my opinion cant prove it)
