anyone concerned about 1.5.0

[Shatti]

so everyone is ok about changing the weapon perks ?

removing swords hell yeah not important
removing mid range war spears hell yeah not important

anyone care ?
anyone here love swords or using spear on foot ?

please put the basic weapons in a "global perk for the whole faction tree"
or use a gold system to solve this
instead of limiting swords or making all the spears choices "long spears"

???

Every spear perk that was removed was replaced with a slightly different kind of spear.
What sword perks were removed?

 

[Shatti]

-they replace spears with long spears
long = slower and doesn't do much for a spear and shield fighting against infantry
-they replaced swords with maces
example Aserai guards
and i don't care if someone says maces are good,
i love to play with sword, and i want my sword back

Im on the 1.5 beta right now. You can pick a sword and a mace at the same time.

The Oathsword can still pick a shortsword as well.

they are not accurate explaining patch notes
anyway, the one handed sword is no longer available as a secondary for Aserai guards

and what is really bad are the spears,
they are just cav stopper now, they are to bad to fight against infantry and very slow

In a 1v1 scenario they might be bad (which is it how it should be imo, the instant release in-your-face attacks that made spears a viable solo weapon before this seem to be yeeted out the window, gud), but they're still a great support weapon and can still be used solo to an extent. First impressions after ~3-4 hours of playtime in skirmish/tdm.

i don't know why everyone think spears should be bad in 1vs1
they were great in warband, true they had a bad shield spear fight
but they could feint and swing and stun and hurras

they improve the shield and spear fight in bannerlord, but surprisingly u cant kill or duel with them in a competitive fight

 

[Aprikosenmann]

You might wanna contact FineApple and create a support group for desprerate spear ambassadors.

 

[Yukmouth++]

So far it feels way better.

 

[Dansk viking]

Stabbing with spears is apparently ineffective 9/10 times. If you're lucky you get like 35 damage, while a swing with a two-hander does 100+...

 

[TheBard]

Right, I've tried it and inf and cav got nerfed considerably with archers remaining useful but different from what I observed.

If opponent has a hammer and can block, you're just dead. Don't even try to fight it. Crushthrough.

 

[XDaron]

the man just loves his one handed swords and short spears, and I can def respect that

 

[blondiecan]

People love swords, so logically they'll add swords back in eventually
