I am a Master Peltast and i have to say that VHTA are not so good than CTS in my opinion.


Re: VHTA? - TFP_Ritter - 22-03-2015

Is there something better than cts which is under 6m?

Really?  I used them extensively until I got ruptures.  Have any of you who have respond so far actually used them on a pikeman?  I will say they are great.  1 shooting more enemies to the head than CTS do. 

IF you hate axes,  There is the pilum and skullpierce for the same price as VHTA.

Yes, I used them on my Pikeman and I have to say it is a bit strange, cause I had the feeling that you do not hit them as often through there shields as CTS do. But if you have a free aim for their head, then Ihave to say that they are quite good for kiting, but if you just use them on full servers then I would go for Skullpierce or Pilum as Sargent Q said.

I used VHTA both on Legionnaire and Peltast. For Legio it's a nice weapon, one can hold 45 of them + shield and switch to 1H mode if needed. So if you take into consideration you don't need to spend money on 1H, VHTA are both convenient and cheap choice.
However, I don't use them on Peltast. Aim is simply no good (despite stats) as VHTA have power throw requirement while other throwables have none. So I do prefer Pilum here, CTS is same as good at half the price. Pilum travel faster and aim a bit better while more drop on CTS proves helpful when you throw over shielders or obstacle. Pilum are also much lighter (to be taken into consideration for movement speed while kiting).

My advice is: if for Peltast, go for CTS or if money is no problem - for Pilum.

PS. Skulpierce is no good IMO, aims bad and doesn't pierce shields. Only advantage is quantity.

Skullpierce is pretty good on marauder and Halberdier as it does pierce shields and it is good and fast at close to medium range but pilum outshines Skullpierce at long range though
