Apparently someone named Beliel is able to do em(from what I've heard) and I'm still trying to track him down. Supposedly he hasnt been around in a few days, but someone emailed me telling me they're indeed able to do the 40ish stone heavy slice/heavy piercing halberds, but I havent been able to contact them for a few days.

If anyone gets a Heavy/Heavy at 40 stones or close to it I'd like a chance to compare it to the halberd I curently use, if you dont mind. IM is Kingc519 or just give me a shout on the gweths when I'm in the area

Thanks
Kleis

P.S. Just so you know, even though the short hafted appraises at Mod/Mod if you compare it to the golden lance(witch is heavy puncture) there puncture appraise as about the same. Also the slice factor is a bit higher than mid range mod.

My Rayje forged halberd is heavy/heavy at 43 stones. I'm not sure if he's still making them for sale or not. However, I can attest, it hits like a hopped-up yeehar. ::grins::

Maulem next time we run into each other mind if I compare it to mine? If I'm not mistaken its average strength right? If so how often do you end up haveing to repair it.

Thanks

some molds don't work right with forging.

Halberds and pikes have problems, you can't grind a halberd or a pike effectively, takes way more skill then it does to grind a blade. If that was fixed the halberds people would create would make me drool, and backtrain all my ranks to pick it up as my main weapon.

"Cant wait for some halberd forging love once the rewrite comes out."

When/if this day ever comes it'll make me dance for joy and be very happy that I have kept it as my primary melee weapon. If it never does come I'll still love useing halberds anyhow.

I don't think thats true since the best halberd forger is a warmage and can grind them somewhat.Most people just arn't skilled enough in the 4 weapons they take the average off for forging halberds

While Beliel is the best know halberd forger, doesnt mean he is the best in the realms. I know of one forger who can make a 43 stone heavy/heavy halberd, but I dont believe Beliel can. The only thing I have to judge that on is appraiseing/compareing his halberds that are sold in the tents. Maybe he can but hasnt started selling them yet.

The halberd I bought from Rayje a while back is 43 stones heavy/heavy. I'm lovin it.

I'm not sure if he's still taking orders/selling his halberds, but I'm sure glad I got one when I did. Thanks Rayje.

How do these 43 H/H compare to the Lochaber axe? Half weight if I remember, but smaller slice. Probably better construction?

If I remember correctly the lochaber axe is great slice/severe impact poorly/reasonably 62 stones. The 43 stone halberd is heavy puncture/slice poor impact fairly/fairly.
