"Grim has 1-5 hit radius - Confirm this ??"
 
   I have heard many times that
lance hit at 5 (edge of the weopn radius)
Bec - 3-5

Grim Scyth 1-5
Sword 1-3

I am playing a polearmer right now, and it seems to be the case to me...
With a grim scyth I actually do more hits to a mob than with a bec - and with a bec more than with
a lance

Can someone confirm this please?

   I have heard it mentioned a couple times that Grim Scythes have a longer reach than Lances (even though they shouldn't), but nothing about Becs.

IIRC, the MPQ's state that Grim Scythes and Lances have the same range, but they may be hardcoded differently. Who knows? (Except for Big J )

   Grim's hit 2-5, Lances just 5, and Becs 4-5.

   Since you can whirlwind things at point blank range with a bec, AND because you can use regular attack and stab things at point blank range with a lance, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that it's a load of crap.
