Severe Impact? That's as good as we've got? My mattock does as much as that at 46 stones. I was hoping for like bone-crushing slice and puncture at 70+ stones.

Not fare to compare forged to fest/store stuff. Are Halberds not on the buggy forged item list?

Blunts in general are allowed to have much higher single-category damage than any other weapon class because they completely forego slice and puncture.

Halberds, even forged ones, tend to distribute the damage evenly between slice and impact. You're going to see more damage on a halberd but they are going to be spread across two categories.

Remember by nature they all work at pole range too. Most blunts don't function like that.

>>Are Halberds not on the buggy forged item list?

Not completely, like pikes. I have seen some quality forged halberds. But even those tend to be moderate/moderate in the 40-stone range and heavy/heavy even higher. L/H/H is about the best I've seen on a forged halberd.

Heh.. this looked like a good time to once again brag about the weapons available through the Platinum-only merchant, Over the Edge. However... even from that merchant, the halberds are really nothing to write home about.

An elm-handled halberd topped by a grinning steel wolf head h/h/f f/r fairly sturdy - 46 stones

""ou draw out your slender khuj from the storm grey harness.
>appraise khuj careful
A slender khuj is a halberd pole-ranged weapon.

You are certain that it could do:
low puncture damage
severe slice damage
heavy impact damage

You are certain that the khuj is poorly balanced and is well suited to gaining extra attack power from your strength.

You are certain that the slender khuj is of average strength, and is practically in mint condition.

The slender khuj is made with metal.
You estimate that the slender khuj weighs around 65 stones.
You are certain that the slender khuj is worth exactly 10000 lirums.
Roundtime: 16 seconds.""


This is the hardest hiting halberd I know if. It definately kills faster than the lochbar axe
The sturdiest I know of is the short hafted halberd and its mod strong


Thanks,
Kleis

Laflan in TF was making some disgusting-nasty halbreds, they weighed like 80+ stones, but they were awesome.

I think he left, or i'd get some to app.
