Minimum length for rearing

[Firunien]

Should those tiny javs really stop a cav in melee mode ? How about making a length threshold of ~ 150 ?
Is anybody else annoyed by that ?

Interesting debate

Damage threshold. Those javelins shouldn't be dealing that much damage anyways.

Maybe jav stabs shouldn't rear them that's a reasonably idea maybe; to hijack your thread, I also don't see why slashes from polearms into their face don't rear them. Also, if there was a damage threshhold that could make it really hard to rear a horse moving slowly, not necessarily opposed to it in principle but it seems like things which hit them hard in the face in general should make them rear if we're going to have that mechanic.

+1
or the jav rears but its then gone. In rl the jav would brake. Pilas aka long sticks should still rear obviously - nobody is asking for that removel before that happens.

Well, it shouldnt rear them but dismember them. I think I saw videos/ games with Lu Bu doing that

I dont really mind it, I figure if you get stopped by a javelin in melee mode, which is like 1/4th of the range of your spear/lance, he probably deserved to get the stop. Then again you can basically keep the horse stunlocked if it does happen.
I wouldnt mind if its removed though.

Well i think the upside of having "real" spears rear cav is that you can see who is able to rear you. I just think a game needs counters which can be seen properly.
