uhh pretty much polearms are between axes and swords. They have more aoes than swords, but they are mostly in straight lines, but they are better 1-1 than axes are. Polearms will tend to have higher accuracy than axes, and their ranged skill, farstrike is a very good staple, and anti kiting weapon.


the polearm aoes take some time to get used to, as you will only hit in straight line, but eventually you'll get the hang of them. Another good thing about polearms is 2nd bleed skill, as bleed stacks, so it works well on casters

Pretty much you'll be able to do similar things that axes do, but with less damage, but more accuracy.

If they hit less, how are they better for 1v1?

Also, if you have a polearm, could you consider making a quick vid for me? That would be sweet ^.^

BM 1V1

High dex fist is the strongest, kill spear and axe
Spear kill axes bm

1v1 duel always dex, dex ,dex
PVE = VIT VIT VIT

STR= for axes only, pump all our dmg at once in dueling because they SPAM SKILLS and spear BM mostly normal attack only, cuz spear skills pretty suck except farstrike!

Should I be pumping Dex for Polearm? I go 5/3/2 Str/Dex/Vit should I change that?
