the TL;DR is the subject. Which 0 slot 1-handed weapons are you able to block with?
I took a long break from cRPG and have returned to see my archery hybrid spec brutally nerfed between the slot system and arrow speed for lower PD. I'm hoping to not have to disregard archery completely for the future and to better fit with this new slot system as well as the molasses arrows, I was thinking of a 9 PD Longbow build or some such. In any event, I want to have a few points in 1H proficiency and would like to use a 0 slotter. Which ones can block?
Also, what is with the shift AWAY from Bodkin arrows? I realize that they're rather retardedly expensive for arrows and have a nasty upkeep... But my assumption is that since archery damage is "meh" (my opinion) at this point, people are going for faster draw arrow spam to try to score head-shot kills. Is this 'accurate'?

Hammer & sickle.

Arrows now break much more often than other equipment. This has made the upkeep cost difference between Bodkins and other arrows much larger. The added 1 damage of Bodkins is not worth the loss of arrows and a massive increase in upkeep costs.

I think expensive arrows break more often, i guess to force the people to use cheaper ones as their bread and butter arrows.

9PD AND wpf in 1h? Ain't gonna happen. You got to have 17(or was it 13 or 14?) wpf (after reduction from weight) per PD. Going 21/18 or 18/21 is your best bet.
