Cav got a nerf today as well they are all now slower ! how about this jump out the way then shoot the cav....
For the secodn time they nerfed cav, cav whined and raged and they reverted it back. It is exactly the same as it was yesterday now. Never seems to work for archers...
A bow can't block, so the only recourse for an archer against cavalry charging in the open field is to do a jump out of the way, and shoot them as they run past if they didn't spear you out of the air while going by. Except now archers no longer get a chance to attack back. Cavalry can just spin and bump thrust while archer can do....nothing. Pull out a 6 inch hammer and block all day? You don't have time to jump, land, draw an arrow and shoot before you are bump slashed repeatedly.
Awesome job. It sure was terrible that an archer on foot could attack a horseman in 1vs1.

Archers SHOULD be killed by cav. It's how the balance of classes work.

No, every class should have a chance against every class.

No, every class should have a chance against every class. It should be hard for an archer to take down cav, but perfectly possible. I've done what polepoop said from the first time I noticed that jumping and nocking didn't work, and it's works well. Confuse them, and go for the rider, not the horse, and you should either scare him away after 1-2 arrows, or take him down.

QQ? You want QQ'ing? Prepare your fucking QQ thread bitches, because I am about to Roof Camp the living shit out of you
QQ? You want QQ'ing? Prepare your fucking QQ thread bitches, because I am about to Roof Camp the living shit out of you. I'm betting it will only take a day before Ladders are removed completely from the game and all maps are set to open field because you won't be able to handle it!
Really though, there has been some incredibly ignorant posts in this thread. It would take an entire book to explain just how wrong you are.
Beer, you are especially ignorant. You know what happens when you stand and shoot the rider without getting out of the way? You lose 1/2 to 3/4 of your health to the HORSE, even if the rider DIES. Geez, that's an AWESOME tactic! Just sacrifice over half your health! Oh, and that's only if you hit them! Should you miss, you're dead totally. Rider has better than cloth or has a shield? Even if you hit them, you lost 1/2 health. 2nd time you hit them again, oh but their platemail laughs at your puny arrow and you die from horse charge without the lancer even bothering to try to land a hit.
That Game Admin needs his adminhood revoked or remediated. This isn't a rock/paper/scissors World of Warcraft pvp server where the 1337 Class pwns all others.
I leave you with a quote from myself.
Dude, wtf do you want?
Presumably, for people to stop wildly exaggerating when making proposals to buff or nerf things, hence his first wildly exaggerated paragraph.

Well that was easy. First map, picked a roof and started camping. 5 dead horses and 3 dead riders! Awesome! You know the best part? They COULDN'T fight back! Just like me if I was on the ground! It was incredible! I was a GOD raining death down upon them without a thing they could do! Man, you guys are so right! Being able to kill a player without them being able to do anything about it is the most fulfilling thing I've ever done! :lol:
Retard.
Poopy face.Doo-doo head.
Hmm, Grannpappy roof camping?! I never seen that before, I should hop on and join him, I forgot what it was like!
I invite all of the rest of the usual ground archers to start roofcamping for the "lols"
roofs will get nerfed and every map will be open plains...you made your own beds.
I couldn't do it for very long. It was as gay as this nerf :idea:
stop whining ur playing a pussy eazymod class. i hope they nerf damage to, and give archers a speed cap to, so they finaly go and work in groups like the my old friends are supossed to do. unlike some wannabe solid snake sneaking about solo headshotting and running away. freaking using longbows like they modern guns, pff that was all.

Archers SHOULD be killed by cav. It's how the balance of classes work.No class should just 'be killed' by another class. The countering class should have a significant advantage, but the winner should ideally be determined by player skill.

I have screens to prove that on many a map, archers are going i.e. 15-1 up, and the cav are lagging behind. It´s an old argument, if you are any good as an archer, these nerfs mean nothing, you still pwn. Same goes for cav. If you can´t hack the changes, maybe time to consider respeccing or playing native pew pew
The fact that the argument has been made before doesn't discredit it. I didn't say that archers could never put up decent stats, but 15-1 for pure archers is pretty rare. Furthermore, I'm not interested in seeing screenshots from a time I didn't play the game and archery actually was OP (or at least that's what I hear).
i dont get the QQ like the jump shot was so important.
it was important for bundle of stickss, when you gonna get that Darian?
I´m just happy i never saw you use it, or i woulda killed you irl.

Really, it's more important to be able to draw while jumping than to actually loose an arrow.
wut? o.O
English not your first language?
What is to "loose an arrow"?
Fail.
I´m tri-lingual. English, German and BS.
Here, I did the work for you, genius. Read definition 24 and stop claiming that you speak English.

Yes, I just want you to keep getting murdered by cav on the battlefield and not be able to do anything about it. Cos that´s fun, from my p.o.v. as a cav player.
See, you're having difficulty with English again. That doesn't make sense unless you start the sentence with "Yes", as in:
