There's the Energy Pike and the Gungan's Electropole that could be electrical polearms.

I just upgraded to a lance from a staff last night. I have to say I prefer the way fighting with a staff looks to fighting with a lance. So I'm throwing my vote in for more weapons that are held in the middle, rather than on the end. High end staves or some other double-ended weapons would be great.

The mounted Pikeman will futher solidify the Pikeman/CH situation that seems to exist here. And I like the idea of a mounted ability. That would be very cool.

Yea kinda, I want the option of having a staff that deals as much damage as any other type of polearm in the game. It appears now staffs will be extinct once more weaponsmiths start making lances, axes and the like.


Going from a staff to a vibro axe or lance is almost like 2 different profession in my opinion. I think the staff represents a different type of player than say a true brawler with an axe, vibro or not it is an axe not a staff.


I'd like to see staffs in the top end content for professional pikeman. Staffswith qualities such as lightning or something of that nature. We have lightning cannons, why not lightning staffs?It would be nice to havelightning graphics appear when your lightning staff hits a target.

Just to beat a dead horse.



SeeingYoda or any other characterwith a staff sends a completelydifferent picture of that character than seeing them with a axe or lance.
