I heard somethin about, the delay to release your bolt on an arbalest at least, is pretty significantly longer. I haven't tried it, but I hear its based on WPF?
I did have the impression that the release delay for xbows had been increased. I use an arbalest. It happened to me a few times since the last patch that I released and it took 1-2 seconds before the bolt was fired. This is way to long, especially when you're about to be skewered by cavalry.
Does anyone know for a fact if the release delay was changed, and if so what is the reason?
Also I've had a few cases of missing at close range (5-10 meters) when the target was completely covering the inside of the reticule. Did any other xbowers or archers notice this?
