Get a shield
jump from a cliff
When I saw a movie poster of The Hobbit 2, it instantly brought EU1 to my mind(3 out of 7 are archers, and well gandalf is ranged too.. :mrgreen:).Gandalf is cav/inf hybrid.(click to show/hide)
jump from a cliffhey shield helps
Get a shieldGet a shield and see your shield broken with two shots,unless you have 10 shield skill?
I got my Huscarl round shield penetrated by a xbower the other day,
Gandalf is cav/inf hybrid.Actually I think he retired.
Correction Edit: Actually in this movie he is inf/thrower. Later on at the end of movie 1, he respecs to cav/inf hybrid.
Would be nice if the devs focussed on xbowers, but all they do is increase their damage with their Steel Bolts
Why don't we add PD requirement for xbows and decrease accuracy when mounted? even when your horse isn't moving.
You do know that being mounted is -20% reduction in damage yes? You need 10 HA just to have equal damage as a foot archer. (HA is +2% damage from the -20%. So 1 HA is -18% damage, etc.)
Buffed non-loomed version, but loomed one just increased in weight and price, not damage.

Not talking about damage, but accuracy.. :lol:HA skill itself also reduce some archery wpf too, just like PD skill.
Not talking about damage, but accuracy.. :lol:
You obviously missed the point, but w/e. Continue on with your blind Archer hate.
rofl :rolleyes:, you are talking about reduced damage when mounted. I'm talking about adding PD requirement for xbow and decrease accuracy, that's that crosshair u know :lol:Ah mounted crossbows reload 3 times slower than they are used to be. I rarely see any mounted crossbowman in EU these days, they are mostly outclassed by horse archers while keeping their uniqueness.
And don't judge me when u don't know me. I don't hate ranged except when it comes to mounted xbowers running away.
How come EU whines so much. You don't see NA whine at all.
I think EU just can't handle anything that doesn't fit their Medieval definition of a fight.(which, btw, Shields WERE the most common form of weapon along with spears, so If anything, mass Migration to shield is realitically accurate for the majority of the "crpg timeperiod)
tired of seeing 40 HA in the same team just because they're wearing a starry bear as banner.
Add chinese repeating crossbows!
I got my Huscarl round shield penetrated by a xbower the other day, and it was by Dieler (or an imposter. He is usually melee). Wasn't point blank but I was approaching him so might have been some movement speed bonus. The server was nearly dead so I know it was him and it only took 1/4 of my life so it was a shield penetrator. Seems you can't even move toward some ranged with a shield now incase you get penetrated and 1 shotted in the head
Kind of wish I took those 5 shield points and put them into athletics so I can at least dodge better. Holding the shield up makes you a much easier target and you just get hit from the sides.
Btw I'm not asking for a melee only server; eventhough I spent 40% of my forum time insulting you, I admit ranged are a very important part in crpg and my fun time; your actual opness that derives from the huge amount of ranged is not. The first step should be imo a ranged amount balancer if possible, tired of seeing 40 HA in the same team just because they're wearing a starry bear as banner.
