Kickass class. The stuff about the V and using vectors to attack is invaluable, especially one on one. It's the mark of a mediocre poleman when you never see them cross their arms. Anyone can pick up a pole and poolcue all day, but if you're not using every angle available to you, then you're essentially a gimped archer with a 10 foot range.

That was one of the best times I've had at an event. Amt polework takes some translation since we don't (yet) have speedpoles and people's sufficient force threshold for glaive shots tend to be pretty high. That said, Warblade and Axgar are beasts and seriously know their **** - listen and learn. I'm looking forward to watching this all again.

Thanks, Loptr!
