AnonymousThis is incredible on halberds. A poise MV of 600 means you’ll be getting 30 poise damage on halberds, only 3 less than a fully charged R2, while being exponentially faster. This gives halberds many more opportunities to deal high poise damage, as the fully charged R2 (except for 3 of them) are insanely slow. All halberd players should try this skill out at least once.

I considered switching to Charge Forth....but Impaling Thrust is so quick, light on FP + does significant Poise Damage.....
Anyone else having trouble choosing between the 2?

The 'guard piece' effect seems to be actually really significant. From what I could tell, about 90% of my damage was going through the enemy's shield. I tested on NPCs, who knows how it might be different in PVP, but good luck landing it there anyway.

It's sad that this doesn't stagger when used with daggers. Daggers are severely lacking stagger ashes of war - either you pick cold/magic affinity AoWs or be stuck with Flame of Redmanes.

I tried an assassin build. Put Impaling Thrust in my dagger, it didn't stagger whether I use one hand or holding it with two hands. But with the katar, the impaling thrust always stagger them for more crit.

It weird how you cant apply impaling thrust on the katar so you can make it heavy katar with the origianl ash of war
