Maybe letting using polearms to Pikeman and increasing armor ratings of commandos a bit more to find a middle ground can be a good idea. I'm also that one of the people who's trying to trade his War Pick with a Dragon Axe because right now its too slow to attack with it, especially in hard mode since bots can glitch through each other. But i really like what this patch brings , servers have alot more people now .

Yes , because they are the tanks of Swadia

I agree with Blondin that the new patch makes playing a low tier character extremely difficult. As a commando, even with store-bought goods, it's easy to get far on an open map, but the same can't be said for T2-and-under players. I think a team of T2 players would reach wave 8 at best, since their builds wouldn't be optimal for dealing with everything coming their way. They would not have barricades to block against berserkers, or medic kits to keep the team running because I suspect most T2 players are still focusing on reaching a higher tier.

But I suppose this is a problem with no good solution. Considering that this game is based on the RPG format, those who spend more time in-game will become stronger, and those who don't, won't. There are some things that can improve players survivability though, and those things are learning how to better play the game.

Things I would suggest infantry and melee players to learn are feinting, backpedaling, and finding defensive positions.

I don't know what your problem is, guys, but I am Commando-Skirmisher, and use no legendary weapons - the great sword you can buy on the market for 9k.

In normal mode, like 75% of bots' hits bounce on my armor, so the armor is still good (unless it's because the Sarranid Elite Armor is still bugged).

I think the issue is just the old L2P issue. If you had experience in Warband against players, you would kill bots easier. The classes are fine, in my opinion.

what you want to say with it? you ever played hard mode? Who are you? Never heard or saw you before!

[Patoson]

Well, personally I don't like hardmode. Trying to kill a bot that swings double as fast as me and has double my armor, and followed by 20 other bots like it - no, thank you.

Plus, the only way to beat hardmode is by glitching, or, if you prefer it, shooting behind barricades or places the bots can't reach.

Things are changing. Be patient you lovely people. Also, lets try to not insult each other. When I first started NI last year Patoson was one of the guys I would love to see on a server slaying away Glad you're still around!

And that's a nice point to end a over whiny thread. Thank you all.
