Heavy Cavalry unfortunately is 100% useless in Bannerlord Online to the degree that I consider it a critical bug. Absolutely noone is playing it and for good reason: Cavalry is only running back and forth and very very rarely attacks, which makes archers (and pretty much everything) a hard counter against heavy cavalry. In the single player heavy cavalry was useful and balanced and I remember even in Warband cavalry swung their weapons like crazy. Thats how it should be. What happened here? Will this be fixed in the next big update?

Okay, thank you. I am looking forward to the next update then. I think the stats of the melee/heavy cavalry, however, are not the big problem. It's their AI. That's why they are so ineffective.
