There are no staffs in Belegarth. Because of how they are constructed, they are really Pugil Sticks.

All haft padding should be checked with the pads of three fingers and, if necessary, then struck with a forearm just like testing the edge of a shield.
And as Cal said, yes, any core felt fails it immediately.

Haft padding that compresses to the core AT ALL is failing.

Aslo, spears are held to the same standard.

Sure, but you don't fail a spear for feeling core through haft padding? What standard do you use when you build your spears?

It's probably Dusty's or Dan's spear that they took when they moved up that way months ago. Call * all you want, but now that I'm the most senior member in the Realm our Council has gone through some changes and is fleshed out with people who were elected by their units and are more in tune with the way I think, which frees me to flex my Realm Leader muscle more than before. This wasn't the case until February, so, what once was is no more and now haft padding is checked in An Tir Dearg the way I describe (just as I have always checked it), hence my Realm member starting this original thread because I failed her min glaive for haft padding at practice because I could feel core through it when she built it according to a less-safe philosophy which I do not espouse.Forkbeard wrote:I was fighting against a spear, made in your realm and covered with event stickers just tuesday, tibby. It had 1/2" of Haft padding.
It passed all YOUR. Weapon checks.
I call * on you.
