Captain Kaboom Posted October 25, 2025 Report Posted October 25, 2025 The Halberd is a weapon that originated in medieval Europe and is like a cross between a battle axe and a spear, it found widespread usage in the late medieval era and effectively replaced Swords in many cases as the Halberd is much better at defeating heavy plate armour than any Sword. The Halberd would thematically fit very well into the game as Vintage Story seems to have a late medieval setting and the unnatural monsters are too tough to defeat with a traditional Sword according to the Falx's in-game description, so the Halberd would feel like a natural pick for the Seraph as they'd be familiar with it and it's superiority over swords at defeating tougher enemies. The Halberd in-game could act as a longer range and higher damage alternative to the Falx at the cost of it being more expensive to make (requiring a a spear & axe head, equivalent to 2 ingots) and wielding the Halberd disables the offhand slot as it's a two-handed polearm. 3
Helstikkenavngivet Posted April 21 Report Posted April 21 yes please!!! i LOVE halberds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyways yeah this would be pretty cool, while also being a welcome expansion to the seraphs arsenal
Tabbot95 Posted April 21 Report Posted April 21 halberds, billhooks, and pikes would be interesting, might be useful in pve if there's ever a sort of cavalry themed (and less claustrophobic) chapter in the story.
Broccoli Clock Posted April 21 Report Posted April 21 Aren't halberds already in the game, not craftable but as part of (vanilla) ruins loot?
