Couldn't kill a naked guy with 18 str and 6 IF with a heavy throwing lance(1) at 7 PT. Took me 3 throws to break his.. kite shield? (2 skill shield, 2 skill)

Destrier took 5 jarids to kill, rider would vary from 3-4 in lordly cav robe (all tests done stationary at close range)


Had a thrower chuck a jarid while I was running at him on my tincan, 65 HP 70 body armor, did about 10%

Throwing should be reverted to what it was before the latest patch.

Or increase the amounts of axes you can carry. For example throwing axes = 10 instead of 3. Then the nerf problem will be fix

Honestly throwing with 7 PT is still okay, even if I would like to have old damage on horse. Horsies need to learn respect  :mrgreen:.
I wouldn't mind a slight damage buff tho.

OR instead of buffing raw damage, how about buffing speed bonuses ? That could be fun...

That's the problem, pure throwing is one of the hardest builds to play ( well, it's the least versatile and most vulnerable to anything else on paper ) due to the fact that you have little ammo and if you're a pure thrower you're not going to have much melee skills and even if you do take a melee weapon you then lose a quarter to half of your ammo, which is meant to be your main source of kills.

So it kind of forces people to be hybrid throwers, which are much better IMO, I have played a pure thrower and a hybrid thrower many times and am playing one again, it's versatile and dangerous to many enemies. Am I bothered that my throwing is now weaker? not majorly, I won't lose any sleep over it, but I do think it was over-nerfed, the same as I think Xbows were overnerfed too. Xbows need more damage again and throwing either needs more damage or more ammo.

I don't think it needs to be as strong as pre-patch personally, just don't think it's balanced at all right now, Archery is more balanced than both of those because of the rapid fire, accurate shots and lots of ammo.

Before the patch it was a bit over the top, but now as usual it's the other way around, over nerfed. Just how things work around here.

I'm jav / pole hyrbid cav so I have even less accuracy than all of youuuus :P

It is a bit depressing, I use to be the heavy lancer's worst nightmare, the player who could not only catch him but pack a decdent punch from short range that no ha could match. It now takes me 9 mw javs, pt 5, wf 145 to kill a stationary lancer with full loomed sarranid guard armour. If 3 javelins havnt killed you, then you should fall off your horse from the weight of 3 javelins stuck in your mail :P

But seriously, I cant kill all that much with javelins, I can use them to buy me an escape but when it takes 5 javs into the body of a champ arabian horse to down it then its getting a bit silly.

Bring throwing back to how it was pre ranged nerf, it was fine then, very few people whined about it and people respected a thrower. Now medium armoured men run at you laughing as they take jav after jav raising their 2h / polearm above their head ready for the kill :P
