Just one comment specifically, can't say I really understand the massive nerf to DT lances when there are basically already none in play.

I did a bad copy paste into the spreadsheet, if that's what you were looking at. I had the wrong sort order -- would check again. It is about in line with other craftable rares.

There's another zero parry 16lb 5d6 craftable rare?

It was considerably worse than all other craftable rares even before you took 2lbs and 3obs off it.

I think it was one of the best bashing weapons in the game, an 18lb weapon which you could equip a shield with for a ton of pb for extra bash, and charge with.

Just used the equipment trainer which has the old numbers, and it was better at bashing than gold hooked swords with a silver etched shield.

It also gets boosted to 6d6 when mounted, which is more useable.

Hefty weight drop leaves it only 2ob and .2lbs over the top non rare lance if I'm reading the spreadsheet right, same damage. I, a clearly unbiased party highly recommend giving it a boost. :D

It’s not, and it was made to strike, not pierce (so no attack).

Are there other unreported weapons with the core of the weapon gutted out as well?
I guess just a unique doesn't matter.

Sinister still pierce?

There were 2 dodgy spear uniques, which didn't make much sense: hence the change of heartstone to combo. Sinister still pierces, yes.
