ROFL...I know this is a stupid little issue but has anyone else realized that in the skill: Polearms 4, under the brawler skill tree we only get +1 to polearm Center duration? I believe it is a type-o of some kinda because all the other brawler classes get +2 pointstoCenter Duration at that level, and also there is no extra +1 point given back to us anywhere else in the skill tree to balance this out. Maybe the devs just slipped it? I know +1 point of extra duration really wont matter in the grand scheme of things however it is just kinda a blow mentally, and makes you think that polearms are worse than all the other classes.


I know the likelihood of this little problem getting fixed is not very high, Unless theBrawler DEV or any of the other Devs has a really big heart for polearms and wants to fix this... ALSO it seems that this skill was a little rushed for some reason because when you also put your curser over that skill and it tells you a description there is a TEXT Word type-o... LOL what were you under the gun for? Well if this does get fixedI will be happier... if it does not,I guess you could just consider it a symbol of our neglect.Anyways thanks again for listening to my rant...


For OpethRebel, Please just contact the dev on thecorrespondent forms and see what he says about this...
thanks again for all your help!

Well, if that is intentional than the devs really don't like pikeman... if that isn't intentional then the devs are just ignorant then. I don't get it. If pikeman don't get the defensive bonuses, where is the offensive bonuses that make up for that? Where is anything to make up for any of our disadvantages?

You guys seem suprised.


If there is a chance that Pikemen will get the short end of the pike, then that is what happens. It has happened many times in the past, and will likely happen in the future. Other classes can gripe and whine about this and that, but all patches have resulted in Pikes getting shorted. Even when things get better across the board, we get a little less. Sounds petty, but there it is.


I watched a novice commando (at least his tag said that) do 8k damage to a Tusken, who was minding his own business, in one shot. Kind of a waste on a 3k HAM, but still. They can do that, we lose one point of a defense move.


Oh Well.

It's a small thing, but maybe just an indication of the fact that the devs see us as designed to have lower defenses to balance our *supposed* superior damage, even though that is *not* the case. Seriously, though, why give just us one point less? What is that? Malice? Error, I hope.

The value you see is probably intentional, us Pikemen are supposed to suck

If you'll notice we also have significantly less toughness than the other classes.



I guess they're trying to make it since we do so much damage (our weapons fawking rule) we have to take alot more damage.



And **edit**, change that text.
