Polearm

DX/Average

Defaults: DX-5, Spear-4, Staff-4, or Two-Handed Axe/Mace-4.

Any very long (at least 2 yards), unbalanced pole weapon with a heavy striking head, including the glaive, halberd, poleaxe, and countless others. Polearms become unready after an attack, but not after a parry.

Pole weapons are long (usually wooden) shafts, often adorned with striking heads. All require two hands.
