abstract	A subset of Polearms, jousting weapons are those specifically designed to be used from horseback. The practice originally developed as a means to use polearms in war, especially against mounted opponents who might cause trouble for foot soldiers. Over time, however, a less violent form of the practice commonly known as the tilt developed. A more sporting practice, this was a tournament competition involving the least lethal of the lances and practiced largely by nobility. This is the popular joust, as practiced by nobility and cheered by the common folk. Both martial and tournament jousting are in practice today, though the term is more commonly known for tournaments. Some jousting weapons can be used on the ground, but those that are are generally useless for defense. When doing this, the polearm skill should be used, and a dodging or shield skill used for defense.
