I'm fine with normal archers, not those that headshot at 60+ meters with ease.

so u like no "skilled "archers?

Yeah you need skill to do that with a proper bow.

Post by: MrShine on May 30, 2012, 04:17:08 pm
Actually, getting headshots with ease at 60 meters is pretty much impossible unless you have a very low tier bow & then the shoot speed is so slow you'll need the target to be standing still.

AKA the usual complaints about imaginary archers.

Say what you like but archers make the game less fun for everyone without a shield (and even some of those with them). Thats a pretty large percentage of the playerbase.

No, you make the game less fun with your constant complaining. Whenever I play a melee char without a shield I am amazed how low the ranged pressure is. Archers are so much less of a thread then before or in Native. I just don't get it how people can still complain.

Because they are either noobs or they only care about themselfs. It only makes it hard for those few with legitimate complaints to stand out.

I've noticed a huge increase in ranged in general since the patch. Round ending with like 15 ranged still running around.Not lobbying for a nerf because ranged isnt as easy or "no skill" as people are saying, but just the sheer amount of them atm is becoming unmanageable

It's to counter ranged. You're helpless against ranged without it so people grab xbow/throwing to do some damage back. If the amount of archers increases the amount of throwing and xbows does too.

all xbows and throwing is more to "harass" then to do real damage. throwing darts and throwing stars are used to interrupt ana rcher firing and stop them running away, they are in no way a real danger.

i see normal xbows used as a way to deal decent damage to those two hand zergs just spamming their massive damaging sword while backpeddaling. and i understand that they dont want to get close  :mrgreen:

I encourage all two handers who have extra skill points and slots to invest their last skillspoints and wpf in throwing. get 2 pt and use throwing stars

Even cav like me have invested our 7PT and 140 wpf in throwing so we can counter archers, or was it counter lancers? Shiiieeet *makes lancer alt to counter my old friendchers*

That should give you an indication about how well informed most of the "anti-ranged lobby" is.  If someone can't even use the search function,what makes you think they can adequately balance cRPG?

Yes I just likened this issue to politics; sue me :D

Actually they make it more fun for a large percentage of the playerbase, else every open map would end up with lancers destroying everyone.

And then when/if cavalry got nerfed after removing archers, then it would be the exclusive playground of 2h/polearmers duking it out.

Since Melee server exists right now, well.

Say what you like but archers ninjas make the less fun for everyone without a shield who don't get a boner from gay men in black leather (and even some of those too). Thats a pretty large percentage of the playerbase.

If devs read this, please consider changing ninjas as suggested in my balance thread, note changing, not nerfing.

BULLSHIIIIEEET, I'm a horsethrower, while I have a hard time against archers I can often get the better of them, and ground xbows are just as good or better in ranged than my old friendchers, only difference is that ground xbowers can't run due to stationary slow reload, and there are only a few retards who cause draws trying to reload their MW arbalest 'cuss they are my old friends and they suck, basically the entire archer population is running, I'd have no issue with NATIVE archery as long as they fix fucking my old friendgy ass kitin'.

While archers can still do damage, the need for a nerf remains.
