+ game perfomance
+ nerfed cav a bit (but, IMO, you should've only gone with 40 degrees lancing, there was no real reason to nerf mounts that hard)
+ HA nerf ( ++ for fast reaction and buffing them a lil after it was obvious nerf was too harsh, not a HA myself
; I'm just for universal justice )
+ Throwing buff ( as Elerion noticed, it's VIABLE, and increased numbers of throwers on the servers is not coz it's OP, but just coz ppl are throwing-hungry and are just having fun; I'm sure number of throwers will lower soon enough)
+ new DTV mode. It's so much fun, after thinking about it twice.
- Strange situation on archers : even though nerfed (not that effective vs armored ppl), but due to big amount of farming in low-tier equip ppl (coz of high upkeep) gained SUDDEN superiority and able to 1-2-shot ppl.
- Too high upkeep. I'm a crossbowman myself, and I can't even afford using middle xbow coz it takes >800 gold to repair. I've lost 10k already and stopped playing, waiting for upkeep to be reverted. It was 1k to repair arbalest, and sometimes I didn't earn anything, but I wa happy coz I've seen upkeep was doing its business ok (tincan quantity was rly low, and if there were some, it only meant they farmed for it\ made a good deal on the marked, thus earned their right to rock for a while.)
