  • While the halberd’s blade offers a lot of options for hooking your opponent, it equally gives them an opportunity to hook your polearm and manipulate it themselves. The simpler spearhead is also lighter than that of a halberd, allowing for more sustain when fighting for long periods.

    I would definitely prefer a halberd (or billhook) over a spear given the choice, but it’s not as much of a direct upgrade as you might think.














  • Having been to Paris myself not too long ago, their rudeness is far overhyped. They were actually quite pleasant to us for the most part, only a handful of interactions that I would consider rude, mostly from street scammers. Maybe I just got lucky or missed some social cues, but I’m not sure where this idea of the openly contemptuous average Parisian comes from.
