I have a feeling you don't like debates. Going off on a rant doesn't help m8.

I already debated in the first couple pages I get tired of repeating myself.

Im sure Daruvian can also be witness to the fact that more than half of the maps are more biased towards infantry gameplay based maps such as towns where archers can just sit on top of a roof and cav will never reach them.

On the more cav type maps that are very open, sure archers may get fucked over, but everyone does else too. Infantry gets screwed just as hard by a smart cav.

A peasant killed a Knight with a wooden stick.
A Cavalry unit killed a pikeman.
Farmer Bob killed Bob with stones.
Archers still run slow as fuck..............amen.

Hi my name is Daruvian and I've played far more generations of cavalry in NA than I would ever be willing to admit in real life.

An unaware archer can be easy to approach and hit, however a good archer with a tilde key who has experience in melee classes and movement will just be able to jump out of the way of your horse and pepper it until it is dead. Someone like flying_dildos, that ivani nerd, palatro, those guys.

Make an archer and then play with 0-5 athletics. Then try and dodge even when you know it is coming. No acceleration what so ever it is like walking with a construction site left and right. I really hope the balancers at least drop the weight by 3-5 per quiver or find another way to balance it by making the now semi crappy  basic arrows weigh less then the bodkins and tatars.

watch the archer wave her epeen all over the place and watch me fail lol

this is before archers nerf.

That guy is probably 12/27 or 15/24 with only 1 pack of arrows. He does little or no damage to heavys. If you hit him he will just die. Cool video though..too bad people don't post the ones where archers get steam rolled by cav and outran by 16/21 plate guys.

Played a couple gens of cavalry and it just not even fair against archers. I grape them harder then a Venice winery with cavalry. Most of the time the infantry just runs way ahead of them so it is really easy pickings on some maps.

Archers just need to be able at least keep up with the infantry with any build. The people who play cavalry all the time just go strait for the spawns and farm archers for valor and I do it too. It is pretty dumb and unbalanced like yeah.

Just drop the weight to around what bolts are that is all it needs. cmon guys seriously...

Just going off your highlighted parts.

(click to show/hide)

As a pure archer build standpoint running around with plate armor on your back is an unbalanced nerf. With all the damage,stun nerfs I think you guys can give a little love to the archers for once.

Throwers on the other hand. WP too pt reduction,they can jump throw,throwing speed is faster then a bow draw and their tossables do not weigh anything compared to 10 per. I don't think it is balanced to have throwers be able to skirmish and run around with 18/24 builds 8ath and get away from melee,but archers cant. You might as well give throwers 50 missile speed so then you don't need any other thing. 

A pure archer should be very fat because A) They are focused on shooting from a distance, not kiting and pointblanking. B) They should not do well in melee at all because they are dedicated archers.

Cavalry wrecks archers simply because cavalry always wrecked archers. In history and in games. Acceleration bonus would be fine but arrow weight doesn't need to be lowered for that to happen. Also, cavalry doesn't really counter archers well unless they use really heavy cav or are extremely careful. Heavy cav upkeep is insane and you almost always lose money. Light fast cav is not as expensive, but 2 archers that see that cav can take him down no problem.

Throwers/xbows do have some advantages in kiting/dmg wise against archers, but they can not get as much ammo/accuracy (some xbows are very accurate if built well but the reload time is insane) and their style is supposed to be different. Not all ranged should be compared to each other as if they are the same.

TL;DR : I understand your pain but with the amount of archers on, I doubt a buff will be coming out for them. You also can't really argue realism in this game because realism doesn't equal a fun game for any class.

I want archer love.                       So you go and tell your King,MacLeod will not be slow nor will any archer while I live.

Real response from an archer :

No.
The arrow weight nerf was well deserved, and is still needed.
If you can't "evade" cav, then stick with infantry. You can't expect to be able to deal with everything on your own.
'Tis a team based game, you know ? You could still slightly increase the arrow weight, and it wouldn't change the archer's life.
They learned to deal with it. Try to do the same.

I bet you didn't even read my ideas,you just posted. It is not well deserved and tell the others it is a team game so they don't leave you in the back to die from cav because you are too slow to keep up.

Getting heated and shit talking is not going to help your point man. Good job killing your own suggestion.

Counter response : Arrow weight used to be low and now it is high for a reason. Maybe if arrow weight was always high your suggestion would make sense, but this community has already dealt with low arrow weight and the response was no.

There is  a difference between low arrow weight and balanced arrow weight. I think 5-6 would be manageable. Also I didn't kill my post I am just standing up to the trolls so back down you will never win against me. I am speaking to all the trolls not you specifically.

If the archers can do high dmg and outrun people, mod will successfully have turned into Mount and Arrow. Way more people would start playing ranged, even myself, because why not at that point.

Some of you guys are just ignorant trolls grow up and do the numbers like I have before spitting your shit all over my post. Especially you Tzar you must be like 9 years old. Seriously if you dont have a real counter response then don't even post here and I am talking about numbers and real game shit not your crappy melee power nonsense. Oh archer blade they can run..fuck you. You don't even know man your response is useless garbage that has no backbone. Along with Tzar who should be watched for flaming and if he flames again I am going to report him.

Can I get real responses here now guys ty.

Blunt arrows would be fine to add they would do a basic damage to all armor classes. Knockdown would be silly but that is a dream.

Blunt arrows-Average damage to all armor classes.
Cut arrows-Great low armor damage,average damage to medium,Horrible for plate.
Pierce arrows-Average low armor damage,good damage to medium,average plate damage.
