Shattered Kingdoms

I, Ardith and OA all saw this problem even before it became a possibility. It still is a problem. Any melee class, especially mercs, getting disarmed in a fight is devastating to them even if they're not otherwise lagged.

I don't see the problem with mercs getting disarmed but I do believe that the front row classes should get some sort of bonus to not be disarmed. Swashies needed something like this. We may see some actually effective swashies now, well effective as long as there isn't another reach bug.

Like Mercs need to be more spoiled than they already are.

Says the guy who specced in what, bill and crossbow? Somehow I'm not particularly surprised that you have changed your tune on disarm.

So I make an argument for disarm to screw over mercs, and this is your counter...?

I'm saying that you never need to worry about being disarmed from your spec'ed weapon unless you were already doing something stupid anyway.

So, what's changed your mind since the update that convinced you that being unable to pick up weapons during combat was a good change?
