Hey gang, I just wanted to state, I finally received my first VL and LVA just yesterday. The server I am on finally had the resources to make them. Anyhow I fiddled with the lances and I must say I am very disappointed again this week, after the patch now this. I have gone up agaist blues, whites and yellows cons. The two blues killed me or I should say I killed myself actually. I never knew what ppl were talking about when they said the VL and LVA were just to costly in the HAM area to be of any use. I agree I was finding that out the hard way...to use one of my special moves was costing anyone from 150 200 of my Health or Action. I decided to try and rearrange my stats to see if I can make up for the cost of using them....I have yet to see how this might help, but reading other post I find myself not truly seeing it. I am now still reverting back to my old Lance just a simple 264 damage 2.8 delay lance. I hardly ever us up my HAM with it. I must say we were not only nerfed, but our weapons cost the highest to use specials, not counting (VK's, or the Rantok sword as well or the slow arse powerhammer)...I do not see what the DEV's are thinking I just don't get it...I mean if I where armor my cost is just ten fold it seems because of the encumberance...and when was the last time someone went toe to toe with another NPC...I was getting hit for 100+ damage and in return I was doing more damage but still it doesn't equal the hits they can take. 3000 Hps is much hard to kill even with a weapon doing more damage than it is for them to do their 1k of damage to me. I want even go into missing...even when I see NPC's with a vibro lance or axe they hit me just as much as I hit them with a lance, but if I switch I miss over half the time. I just don't know now about this game...it seems we were the bad guys that everyone went after for this last patch....WHY is all I ask...and Mr. Silver Surfer...if you represent us...to I am calling on you to give us some feedback...not your own feedback but someone in the DEV Department to give us some idea what they are addressing...then perhaps these post will slow down...so where is the feedback man.....Talk to us.

yup, you can't use armor and do pike specials, even area attacks with armor can suck down like 400ham easy and now we got our defense moves taken away so I don't know what to tell you. Don't use berserk either, it's been borked for about a month now.
