I'm new to the Pikeman profession, and don't remember any good remarks about the profession since Beta III. However, I've just got Master Offense then Master Pikeman to go and I like the profession, for PVE anyways. However, I have a question regarding POLEARM SPIN ATTACK 2, It hits everyone around you, and can stun, dizzy..etc.. (Hit900-2200 DMG for me). Last night I got Polearm Defense 4, (I think its the one) which gave me POLEARM AREA ATTACK2. Haven't had a chance to use it yet since it was late. My question is, what is the difference?

Spin2 is a circular AoE that can damage and dizzy. Area2 is a circular AoE that can damage, stun and dizzy. They have slightly different damage mods, other than those 2 differences and the animations, they are the same. Spin2 used to have slighly more damage, but now it seems area2 has a higher damage mod. (2.5x vs 2.75x).
