I might respec him to warlord but what would be better for solo fights?
Two handed Slash
or Thrust Polearms?
He is a Briton armsgimp
Kagato said:two-handed advantage is purely based off positionals, the reactionary styles are very poor. In a solo fight you will rarely have the opportunity to use positionals except in the odd kiting situration
Polearm has good all round styles for most siturations combined with the best reactionary styles off any weapon line. Hence the preferance for soloing.
However, why thrust?
From a solo point of view crush polearm offers you the best damage table by far for the enemies you will meet solo. Thrust is only the best choice from a group combat point of view, with slash being the worse of all for both.
Kagato said:Even in a group situration polearm is a very stronge choice with an Anytime Snare style, and 2 chain 9 second stun rear positional. However if you plan to group alot, Thrust does become a very attractive option, its lovely on the majority of midgards key support classes and tanks.
