Swadian Poleaxe Vs Swadian Halberd - King Hot Dog - 27-02-2013
Which is better and can someone post stats of both of them
Re: Swadian Poleaxe Vs Swadian Halberd - Remono - 27-02-2013
Stats:
Swadian Poleaxe:
Speed: 92
Length: 150
Swing damage: 53 cut
Thrust damage: 30 pierce
Crafting cost: ~500k
Swadian Halberd:
Speed: 80
Length: 170
Swing damage: 55 cut
Thrust damage: 35 blunt
Crafting cost: ~850k
I personally prefer the poleaxe. Like the faster speed. The difference in damage isn't big enough to justify the halberds use (just my opinion).

ok cool i think i will go with the halberd because i think it looks better as well but thanks for the stats
Re: Swadian Poleaxe Vs Swadian Halberd - King Hot Dog - 28-02-2013

I think the extra 20 length of the halberd might be the defining feature of it rather than the damage. The Halberd has a much better time as a slashing weapon than a general purpose weapon. In any case, I usually don't engage in melee as a skirmisher, but when I do, I prefer to use a pointy stick.

Actually, those stats are incorrect. The actual stats:
Swadian Poleaxe:
Speed: 92 90
Length: 150 156
Swing damage: 53 cut 54 cut
Thrust damage: 30 pierce 25 pierce
Swadian Halberd:
Speed: 80
Length: 170 180
Swing damage: 55 cut
Thrust damage: 35 blunt 31 pierce
Fact remains that the Poleaxe is more of an all-round weapon, being shorter, but having a higher speed. I'd prefer the poleaxe if I would kite, for example.
The Halberd is a very good weapon for slashing over the first row of slashers in a shieldwall, since it has 180 length and higher damage than the poleaxe (though very similar)
