Suggestion: Kruber spear skin

Given that Lohner´s Emporium is in the works and the WoM weapons dont have illusions yet, this might be a good time to suggest this.

Basically, a kind of slender glaive/guisarme/fauchard/whatever you want to call it. As seen here in the use of imperial soldiers against trolls.

I think the current spear skin is a great fit for Markus Hunter career, but does not look quite fitting on the more heavily armored frontline Mercenary class. A slender glaive would look more militaristic, still fit the thrust-heavy moveset of the spear but also make the spear´s slashing attacks a bit more believable (as currently, chopping Skaven heads off with as small spearhead feels a bit strange). I´d say it would fit neatly into the mercenary aesthetic.

So, yeah, I think this would be a really cool spear illusions and a great fit for the Mercenary class, and something I would definitely want to use (maybe even pay for).

Exactly. There is a ton of wide sweeps and current spear model doesn’t cut it. I think billhook could use a bit bigger blade too or at least a longer spike to make it look more armor piercing (which it is).

Strangely billhook is only armor piercing with the thrust attacks. The slashes bounce right off, which is weird given that you´re swinging a big polearm spike-first into an enemy. That would be a lot of force in the tip of the hook/spike, which should actually go through armor more easily than a thrust.
