unnerf after unnerf for archery. Totally unexpected from the people that made a habit of nerfing archery.

I'll admit that this is good now.

how about respecing to Kesh's build? 

27/15
then your bow is more like a melee weapon but still ranged 

In that case I can never shoot anybody as wpf decreases with higher pd.

2 IF and 1 ath sounds good to me now, although I cannot dismiss the nice looking 3 ps... Thanks guys.

Beginner's Help and Guides / An advanced archer build question

« on: April 28, 2013, 11:54:33 pm »

I'm currently a Level 34 archer (pure archer). Specs:

Strength: 18
Agility: 27

Weapon points:0
One Handed:40
Archery:181

Skill points:0
Weapon Master:9
Athletics:8
Power Draw:6

I still have 69 Million to level 35 but I want to have an idea on what to do when I have a skill point and attribute point. I'm using MW bodkin and MW horn bow btw.

Now the questions:
1. put 1 attribute to strength (make it 19?) or agility (make it 28?)
2. put 1 skill to athletics (from 8 to 9) or just put it on iron flesh? I'm a pure archer so no powew strike (but you can convince me).

Probably I'll use my wpf points for 1h to make it more close to 50.

Now according to the calculators of this thread:
http://forum.meleegaming.com/beginner's-help-and-guides/crpg-newgen-character-builder-archer-damage-calculator/
increasing strength at this level slightly lowes my damage. So put it on agility? Is the calculator wrong or outdated ?

Let me know what you think. Thanks for any help on the matter.

Suggestions Corner / New Game Mode: Defend the Caravan

« on: December 08, 2012, 04:47:52 pm »

Recently, if there is a map change request in Defend the Virgin, there is disagrement and the game transforms itself to the battle of protecters of the virgin and virgin attackers.

So I suggest having a DTV where there are no bots but real players. Of course, if the virgin is at a fixed position this is no different than a siege wher eyou protect the flag. But if the virgin moves and the defenders are supposed to defend it until it reaches a specific point that would be a different game mode, possibly between battle, siege and DTV.

This new game mode could be multiple virgins (hence the name Caravan) trying to go to a location through a route, with a bunch of guards and attackers. If all virgins die until the journey is finished attackers win, if the caravan reaches the destination defenders win.

Dead poeple can respawn near the caravan or it can be the case like the battle where noone respawns. Respawn option seems more reasonable to me.

Just a suggestion ...

Suggestions Corner / Stop virgin killing

« on: December 08, 2012, 02:01:06 pm »

I have a suggestion for Defend the virgin. Usually when people don't like the map they kill virgin to change it. Can the virgin auto report (or kick) people for hurting her? IF it was the case noone would touch the virgin.

Sometimes there are votes and even if we disagree people go ahead and try to kill virgin.

Another possbility is making the virgin invulnerable to teamhit.

WSE2 Beta / Re: Animation Stuttering

« on: December 03, 2012, 08:17:38 pm »

I have this problem especially when I play DTV and when it comes to waeboos. Maybe it helps to devs to resolve the issue.

We play with more than 20 on our team and when a large number of waeboos approach animation starts to stutter.

General Discussion / Re: Is archery bugged atm?

« on: November 02, 2012, 12:12:02 pm »

Still waiting for the devs to take a step back.

I experimented with some STF characters (killed chadz at DTV to be specific to cope with rage). The archers will be totally stationary with the new settings. If there will be no going back (which I still hope will happen), you must give us a free respec. There is no way I'm respec'ing from 48M exp. It took me ages to get here. I could retire 6 times instead of trying to get a level. Now if I retire you give me just 3 loom points and just 1 generation instead of 6 looms and 6 gens. We are in this bad situation where our loyalty to mod is penalized.

Also, about this kiting whining: most of the time archers are taken out by other archers. If an archer can't move fast he will be an easy target. I don't think this ath nerf will make you happy with my 9 or 10 PD together with +3 MW horbow and +3 bodkins.

Just give me a free respec and I'll call it a deal and move on to POWER drawing directly to your asses.

That formula (15PD-1.5^PD instead of 14*PD) also reduced our damage. You take out both our wpf and damage rate. I can't understand the reason. We are not the most killers in a game or with the most score. If you want to nerf something, nerf 2h.

Do the same to melee people: iron flesh and/or power strike shall reduce wpf. Also use the same kind of formula to nerf melee hits.

Currently it makes no sense to play crpg as an archer. This kiting whining is total nonsense. I could never outrun a 2h guy in this game ever with my 8 ath (and I'm level 33). In order to kite, I have to run, turn back and shoot in a small time period. The chaser should be too haeavily armored to not to catch me. And in that case, my arrows can't do shit to that armor anyway.

Especially when a guy with shield moves directly towards an archer, the poor archer has nothing to do but to run and hope that he has melee comrades around to save his ass. Now you say, anyone with a shield should be able to kill any archer he sees fit.

So much hatred for archers from devs make me feel like stop playing. What you have done is not rational; we are here to have fun and as I saw it everyone was having fun (including the melee) before you came and screwed us. Just because you are the dev team, you can just come and say "let's try this formula and see what happens". We spent days and months in this mod. We deserve more respect than this.

Closed Requests / unban just a little earlier ?

« on: April 23, 2012, 07:59:58 pm »

Dear admins,

I got this strat battle starting now in 15 minutes and ban finishing in 2 hours (not sure). Can you unban me now. I had my comments on the subject to the corresponding admin : http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,28888.0.html but did not hear from him.

I'm sure he would do it himself if he was around. Just please.

Game Admin Feedback / My banning for tk'ing a troll

« on: April 23, 2012, 12:12:29 pm »

Well, you banned me quite fast and I could not attend the strat battle of Grey vs Templar in the last minute because of that. So I was quite frustrated with you last night .

I slept over it and I still think you are not 100% right about this. I'm around here quite a while to acknowledge that I shouldn't have tk'ed that guy but you made several mistakes that which I'll summarize:

1. There is no difference between "always passing the ball to the opponent as a gk in rageball - and later looking the other way to let the ball in" and "opening the castle gate for the enemy in siege". You should have kicked that guy. Maybe even warning him would do.
2. He did that 8 times in a row (score was 8-0 when you kicked me out). Also I warned you that he was trolling around. I asked him in the private channel to get out of goal at least 4 times nicely. There were also other people doing the same thing.
3. In shooting him in the head, my intention was to remove him as the goalie. Banning me for a day is harsh. Making me miss that epic strat battle is the harshest punishment I got ever. You could have kicked me first before banning.

So in short, admins should be there to protect the integrity of the game. If one guy is ruining it, you should take them out and then people like me won't take matters into their own hands. Even though you seem correct in the end for banning for intentional tk, it was your misjudgment that led to it.

I again acknowledge that I should have left the serve and it was my mistake tk'ing him (even if he was a troll), so I'd put the blame more on myself (60% would be fair ).

I asked randomdude and he said that you banned me for a day. If you can unban, I can attend the strat battle tonight which I'll be missing with a couple of hours (I withdrew from all after your ban). I think you punished me enough and made your point.

Take care...

CBA is attacking Greys to take Jelbegi, our old town full of memories, tomorrow morning. Just a reminder.

For the record: I thought Antarian 2h guys used flamberge for everthing, including killing, cooking and wiping their asses. That's why it takes 1 wipe to do it, you won't have an ass afterwards, so you won't need wiping anymore

Faction Halls / Troops dying in strat

« on: March 12, 2012, 07:33:15 am »

Random your gold just hit zero in strat and I think you lost 9 troops because of it. I sent 600 gold to you, I hope it holds out before you sign in.

Guys maybe you can send Random some gold until he puts things in order.
