whats the point of using polearm hit 3, after a knockdown, all it does is lower posture wich makes your target stand up again, i think its dumb

well... don't use ph3 after kd.


try: kd, area2, area2, ph3, kd... this works real good in pve; and in pvp when it lands.

i still think they should remove the posture change from polearm hit 3, and add dizzy or somphin

the point of PH3 is that it usually does over 3000 damage a hit.

shutout makes a good point. I don't know the exact math with pikeman moves, but usually targeting one pool is the most efficient way to take out a single enemy.

Because Leg hit 3 doesnt do as much damage. Not by a long shot. And also PH3 is a faster attack.

you all mus realize a truly strong pikeman lives on the dot's of his lance...then you can avoid worrying as much about your polehit3...i myself use 3 lances in pvp...on to dot mind, one to double dot health then i lay into them with my power axe and let them worry about healing...i dont usually sweep unless its a ehavy swordsman because i dont want my mind destroyed and i know 4 of 5 times i can dizzy kd a swordsman!

Yay, we are nothing without looted weapons! Super! No other class relies on looted weapons to be a viable force. Awesome.

Most of my pvp kills lately have been by hitting them with a mind poison polearm, lunging trying to KD them, more brawler skills (warcry, intimidate) and then when their mind is low enough, switching to the ph to target the last few points. Pikeman pvp?
