erikface Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Take a good look at what's in the hand of this character: http://www.google.com/imgres?q=skyrim+elven+armor&um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&sa=N&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1366&bih=678&tbm=isch&tbnid=yt2kN7B9UkKN1M:&imgrefurl=http://www.giantbomb.com/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim/61-33394/all-images/52-514564/artofskyrim_008_elvenfemhalberd/51-1698259/&docid=yoLYnUd_1hOCcM&w=1280&h=720&ei=atGNTu74LYL00gHp69kv&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=766&vpy=177&dur=418&hovh=164&hovw=292&tx=136&ty=93&page=1&tbnh=91&tbnw=162&start=0&ndsp=17&ved=1t:429,r:3,s:0 Todd's been quoted as saying "There will not be spears in the classic sense . . ." Then perhaps there are lances or some other type of polearm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeclordX Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 May be is only the design, or there are spears but only as part of some enemies, not as a weapon you can use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hector530 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 no spears, even the artist removed it LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erikface Posted October 6, 2011 Author Share Posted October 6, 2011 no spears, even the artist removed it LOL Yeah, perhaps to focus on the armor. But that's not a spear she's holding. Like Todd said, "there aren't spears in the classic sense". That suggests there's something like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hejpadig Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I heard that polearms were in. And that you could attach any sort of weapon to it, I'm not sure if it's just a rumor, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimembrain Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I heard that polearms were in. And that you could attach any sort of weapon to it, I'm not sure if it's just a rumor, though. that was a wild rumor .. I heard it once and never saw any source for it nor did anyone say it again .. since then everyone has been very firm on the no spear thing... I think this is just concept art .. the concept artist in any game will draw some pretty wild things that will never be in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrius2 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 That thing looks like an elven halberd of sorts, so you could just apply a two-handed-axe animation to it and it would fit in fine. Doesn't make it a spear though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x722ism Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 It would surely make riding horses more interesting. :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanerath Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 If you want Lances in Skyrim you will have to wait on a mod. It seems like it would be a challenge to script the mounted combat so it may take a bit of time for someone to come out with the mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
