OMG HOMER I LOVE YOU FIRST THE ARCHERS NOW THE CAV!!!!
Soon we can all admit you need to have skill in order to get your kills. I voted for them all because fuck everybody who plays cav for the kills.
I think everything you say and vote regarding balance should be ignored because you're a bigoted, rambling fool. You can't come up with ANYTHING to back up anything you say, it's just a mindless crusade against random things.
We are absolutely not sure about the idea of reducing rewards but it's interesting to know what you think about gold-related ideas.
Reducing rewards is an effective nerf but I don't think that takes away from cavalry simply being too effective and easy to use.
Make lance taking two slots in inventory, and increase riding points for better than Stepe horses by one.
@edit up - oh my god, I can imagine tons of damage you do with this...
(quotes broke at this point because my fucking PC restarted lel) Honestly, making things take more space in your inventory is an excellent idea but I'm not sure if it can be done that easily. Increasing riding skill requirements is a good idea as well but I'm afraid it doesn't do enough.
Cav is already nerfed as fuck.You are nerfing every fking class except 2h.Nerf archery,nerf crossbow,nerf horse archery,and now nerf cav...
In what way is cavalry nerfed? They take damage from being dismounted? K den
I personally voted for options 2 and 4, I support 3 as well but for some reason I missed it (hell, might be all this beer I'm drinking, who knows). Disallowing riders to do things while jumping (blocking!!) is a big thing, they can still be hurt without their shield magically catching the hit. Interupting their attacking while horse being reared means that they can't lolstab you in the face (possibly instakilling you) and bugger off when they run into a pike, another HUGE problem. Decreasing the speed of wounded horses is a big, big hammer to the face but sadly it's needed. If the decrease is not too radical, it can easily be combined with other options though a major speed nerf would be huge. Archers would actually have a reason to shoot at cavalry, and throwing weapons were a lot more dangerous, couldn't just tank them with your face like usually.
Hell, everyone knows how shit I am at this game, I'm only a good archer really and not even so good at that. If I go on horseback even a fucking pleb like me can go 10-1 fairly easily just by being cautious. It's too easy. These changes are REALLY welcome.
