Only in your dreams, but sure.

Quote:one handed weapons are actually good

At expending several times more effort for no actual gain? I agree. Every legionnaire purist says "Do throwing then clean up with your fast one hander" and absolutely no one does because your throwing is trash, you're going to die quickly if you actually go out, and it's such a waste of effort when the nords all run into the shieldwall anyways. I'm honestly confused by you people, is the legionnaire actually good class just misused, or is it a bad class that needs a buff? You've said both and proved nothing, so i'll assume it's some coping mechanism. Don't worry, I'm sure a zweihander would be happy to drop his Eastern Katana for you.

Quote:give it 2601h prof or 200 throwing

Only the throwing actually does something. Everyone agrees that legionnaire needs something because its focus, one handed weapons, is garbage. Honestly. Legionnaire is slightly better than the other one handed hero classes because it gets throwing, but that's not saying much. Giving it cool flashy gear to make people actually want the class and not complain about it on the forums is the best bet, a garbage stat that's shined up is still garbage.

Quote:slash shielding

Was a gimmick temporarily used on crushthrough waves but replaced by cading off from them and ultimately made useless by removal of crush through waves because no one actually fought them but caded off from them. So sure, it's a cool gimmick, but it's still a gimmick.

lol.

So, exactly what the pikeman is? I can't think of a situation where a legionnaire would actually be better than a pikeman in game, ignoring these fantasy gods who never fail to block attacks as they solo thor's chosen with their laser one handers.



If legionnaire's are this opposed to being a decent class or can't admit their a bad class, I won't bother upsetting you any further, if you aren't doubting it, I concede. No class could ever approach the legionnaire in power, truly it is reserved for the gods of NI such as yourselves. Forgive me, a mere man, for thinking to oppose you.

Zweihander isn't that great.
