Unique Polearms: Difference between revisions

Polearms are, along with [[spears]], the largest weapons in the game with the longest reach. However, they are unpopular due to their relatively low damage and slow swing speed. They aren't even that good for [[Barbarian]]s to use with [[Whirlwind]], as they have much lower damage then the top [[maces]] or [[spears]]. They are improved somewhat at higher levels in the Expansion, however.
