The Polearm Stances Need More Combos.

Both of them need an RMB combo. DE, just do it.

They said more combos were in the works for all weapons quite awhile ago, I imagine they are being held hostage till charge attacks get reintroduced.

Most stances need more combos

Seconded.

Polearms are the worst offenders, as their combos are lackluster (holding the E key hurts).

Polearms do a unique thrusting attack when mind-controlled by Mutalist Alad V, I wonder if it is a tell of things to come.

Attack animation is like if Tenno were jousting with a Lance - I'll try to remember to record next time.

I am a slow individual.

Just tested the Serro with no stance and realized that those thrusts are from no Stance equipped.

(Mutalist Alad V - mind controlled must not be able to utilize Stance combos)*

Was hoping no stance would allow the quick-melee to be the Equipped combo but with applied channeling and with lower stamina consumption.

So I would like a Polearm stance that has the Quick-melee as the combo with lower stamina consumption.

Shimmering Blight basic combo is close but has that non-fluid poke attack at end.

Bleeding Willow's start attack is a standstill.

Both consume extra stamina....shouldn't mastering a technique consume less stamina across the board for melee?!?

After doing some testing: I now have dumped 3 form as into the Serro so I may use it Stance less for less Stamina usage as the quick-melee attack is better suited for a Mobile Eternal War Valkyr build.

If Life-Strike is needed I can just Paralysis and swap to melee to channel.

(On melee only runs I have my Simaris scanner equipped in hand, so I can use quick-melee on Serro when Serro is only weapon in loadout)
