We need a double XP Friday on NA2 at least once a month. It would help keep the server alive.

I have to invest exactly the same number of points into WM and Agi, but now I have 22 less WPF, so that I only JUST meet the requirement for 11 PT at level 34. It's meant nothing but a nerf to anybody following a pure throwing build and there was no corresponding buff to offset it. Before I had a small surplus of WPF over what was required, so if I understand correctly my accuracy got a miniscule boost; now that I only meet the requirement I lose even that. I play naked but now I don't even have the option of wearing any significant armor, so (assuming armor weight still reduces wpf) about half of the gear I've bought is impossible to use with my build.
When the very first round of nerfing hit throw some time back, I thought it would help focus throwers on picking off wounded enemies or at least helping teammates. Ever since then though throwing has been nerfed away from viability as an independent class with the intention that it function almost completely as an alternative choice to xbows for hybrid meleers. Literally no changes except those that objectively force throwing in that direction, except for addition of throwing hammers which are useless. Throwing has never received half as much attention in terms of tweaks as any other group of weapons...and unfortunately that's probably the only reason throwing weapons remain at all viable.
PT 11 and high-tier weapon headshots kill 4/5ths of the time. Archers in leather run away from me with a throwing lance lodged in the back of their neck. It's stupid.
The easiest fix at this point would be to increase the bonus for having a PT above that required for any given throwing weapon.

Metal and football? Dude no no no no, just fucking no.
Do that. join a large clan with lots of members(or guys you like) and put your stuff into their armory.
Never delete/get rid of. Its to hard to get it back.(or start over, I started a new alt that I'll retire now. He's a themed character, and hard to play cause everything takes so BLOODY long)
Though If you'd like, I'll hold onto them for you.
Can anyone give me a good build for this with the new point system? I haven't been playing for around a month, I'm level 33 right now, but I'm nearly 34. My intended build was:
Str:24
Agi:18
PS:8
IF:2
Shield:5
WM:4
Riding:5
Ath:6
Something along these lines give or take 1 or 2 skill points (cant exactly remember what my previous build was)
lol what's this talk about catering to high ping players ?!
i'm of the opinion that if you have ping over 70 that's your problem, i don't think that the game should cater to the 5% that have super high ping, rather cater to the majority, and try to give them as fun an experience as possible
Your game looks fucking beautiful bro, mind posting any graphics mods you may be using?
