Niddhog just jumped on the dragoon hype when HW came out and didn't put any effort into learning the class. >.>
Though in all seriousness that might have a lot to do with it. From what little cutscenes we've been shown of him he is usually in dragon form. So when he uses Estinien's form he's just kind of trying to copy the knowledge he has from watching dragoons kill dragons. I mean it's a completely way of killing than he's used over the ages of his life using a lance for a first time. I'd just say Vidofnir was just damn lucky it didn't hit where Niddhog was aiming (cause SE doesn't want to kill her). Spear missed anything vital it should of hit, spine or heart.
Though the reasoning for even appearing as Estinien would have been more of a symbolic gesture. He wanted the Ishgardians to know exactly what he did to their champion. Throw them into despair and break their spirits by showing them that even the mighty Azure Dragoon was nothing him. Most of those people were ultimately too insignificant to kill and it would ultimately be far more useful to let them go home and tell everyone they know what they saw.Â
Really seems to me that the greatest weapon that Niddhog employs is the head games.
