3405, You're just trying to avoid being proven wrong

How often to you fight someone with a nodisarm polearm, hmm?

Let's look at it this way. Who deals more damage? A polespec or a lion with protections up? Probably the lion. Same with a number of other forms.

What you seem to be saying is "Waah. Why can't I ever beat a BATTLE warrior WITH the head who has a NODISARM weapon WITH MY FORMS that are not a good matchup." when in fact, most polespecs will not be using a nodisarm or noremove weapon, and battle is only one out of many cabals (albeit one with a higher concentration of warriors).

And before you run out there, and find the fumble tactic fails when you try it, I'm not saying it will work the majority of times. I AM saying that it will allow you to get the better of a polespec sometimes, and if, as you claim, you're all buffed up, you won't really be at any risk, outside of the village.

Since you're bound to contrive another situation, I'll add "unless of course, you let yourself get hamstrung, arteried, hurled and silenced first".
