My views on archery.

Bruce, I dont know, have you got an archer char or not. Let's do some math.


So - Khergit bow dam = 22
Bodkin arrows = 4
22+4=26.

So 26 is raw damage without bonuses. Agree?

Then bonuses.

From PD
0,14x4=0,56

From wpf
0,15x1.71=0,2565

Overall bonus = 0,8165

Overall damage bonus in damage points
26x0,8165 = 21,229


Overall output damage (raw+bonus)
26+21.229=48

Simple math. Agree?

Then look at the calculator.

I've never seen anyone wearing anything that can reach 75 armor since patch. You need loomed top tier plate stuff to get to 75, even regular black armor + heavy gauntlets is only 72.
