Thread: List your major issues (again)
#1. Devs obviously could care less about us. Our class lack definition, balance, and most of all... fun.
#2. I have MISSED more than I hit on prone targets that I had just knocked down. Talk about lame.
#3. AP still does not work right, which is why the VL gets ignored. Anything you hit that does not have a resistance to your damage type is treated as the same AR as your AP rating, where it should actually be if they do not have a resistance they should take full damage and be considered to have an AR of 0. Hence why the LVA is chosen over the VL, because it's kinetic we actually see the AP work much more often as almost everything has kinetic resists.
#4. Why do other classes continue to get better stat boosts when simple numbers easily reflect that we suffer from rarity due to the class just plain "sucking"? You realize polearm only has 2 types of players, those who picked it up because they love it and won't change, and holocron followers. No one takes it because "they heard it was cool".
#5 No planned bonuses for pikeman on mounts. You're right, Arthur and his knights would've done so much better jousting with brass knuckles and hammers.
oh just a little clarity on that mounts suggestion,
as far as i know and have heard the only people that will be able to attack while mounted are ranged........which sounds perfectly in line with how melee's gotten gyped at every fork in the road.
Oh well, at least we get mounts, you never know - there might have been an objection to that too.
