I’m not a morning person either, but I have ADHD, so coffee does nothing for me. I have to get up 2 hours before I have to leave or else I’m just simply not awake, which is plenty of time for a run.

I don’t actually go for a run, but I could. Theoretically.

You got the right 196 :)

While the halberd’s blade offers a lot of options for hooking your opponent, it equally gives them an opportunity to hook your polearm and manipulate it themselves. The simpler spearhead is also lighter than that of a halberd, allowing for more sustain when fighting for long periods.

I would definitely prefer a halberd (or billhook) over a spear given the choice, but it’s not as much of a direct upgrade as you might think.
