Well, everyone predicted the end of the world with 1.65 for the pole arms (incl me). But one can only tell once one has expierenced it. So i'm curious. How does things work out? Is it a nerf, or is it better? Have you used your stun style usefully yet? do you use your lvl 50 style ever? What are your anytime openings you use now?

A friend of mine is rather unhappy with the changes but wouldn't tell me why. :/

Don't bother with Mangle anymore if I'm not with a Pally. The new stun is vaugely usefull for getting another mob stunned in PvE, but at 2x attack rounds, the Pally normally gets there before me. Not done any tests with Poleaxe yet, but will most likely use Rage + CB as a backup on one on ones.

Stun in RvR? Every time I'm about to do it, the Pally slams...

You do damage, pally stuns, what's there to fight about?

9 sec stun > yours, no? :eek:

The whole "point" behind moving the Pole 9 sec stun was to allow them to get it on anyone, not just characters with styles. Well everytime I go to use it a Pally gets there first. So basicly they removed my only defence when I'm head to head with a tank, for no needed reason.
