lancing for me seems to be the funnest part of this game but the damage just isnt there. with all riding skills at 100 including mounted charge and lances at 100 I do 60 damage to a zombie with flakestone tips on a desert horse at max speed. The damage calculator seems to be a little wonky to, some times my hits at 60 and sometimes my hits are 15, it seems that unless I aim the lance at my horses head then ill do less than 50% damage, meaning if I lance slightly off to my right like a real lancer does I do poop damage and im forced to charge my horse directly into some one.
now for pvp, its understandable that a lancer isnt for 1v1, your someone who is suppose to lance the unexpected, but using a nice chunck of horse stam for 5-25 damage feels.....EHHH. The funny thing is if you lance on foot you do full damage and your lance durability acts like a normal weapon instead of taking that hefty 5 durability hit or so when on horse back. Also the horse being 4 shotted feels kinda bad, all those primary points to ride and manage a horse to go down in 8 seconds is the worst
But whats your guys opinion? I havent seen another lancer in this game anywhere, every now and then i see people buy my lances but i never see anyone with them
