First of all, you are disregarding the fact that this has low min so the damage is very volatile. Secondly, you are also discounting the fact that Bsnap has dual 3X resistance. Thirdly, you are underestimating the power of CB.

In conclusion, a 5-fg bsnap > this.


Well put ken.

I attest to the fact that range is important  ( Bsnap has merely 2 as opposed to pike.. which has 5?), but if you are planning on dealing crazy damage then you need a lld -30 req lance, not this.


This is well put and I wont try to change your mind on it, but I will stand by my opinion that this pike is at least equal to a Bone Snap or better in situations where range 5 would come into play.

Edit: But with that being said I also believe that a -30% lance would be greater then both.
