Something new for the combat rebalance. Why not give Pikeman a heavy piercing weapon? Pikes and lances ARE designed to pierce armor afterall, so it makes sense that they should actually do it. Also it would give the pikeman something to set it apart from the other melee professions a little more. Another idea would be a charge attack, like a shorter version of burstrun, except you have to start from at least 15m from your target and as soon as you are in range of your target you attack for double damage, that'd be a nasty little surprise for those ranged runners.

I would like to see this because in beta the devs said that fencer would be the fastest and least damage. Swordsman would be the medium of it all and pikeman would be the slow high damage folks. Seems to me that pikeman got the slow part and the crappy ranges, but did not get the high damage stuff. A heavy AP weapon could remedy this.
