To me it seems masses of foot archers and shielders are going to be pretty unstoppable with this patch

Not really bow damage got fixed in the hotfix.  Its pretty balanced now, though I think throwing might have been boosted a bit too much comparatively, keep getting 1 to 2 shot all the time again by people throwing weapons 3 times as fast as I can draw a bow.

Throwing weapons are hellishly fast. My one gripe with them. I've been killed several times by spamming throwers who can put out 3-4 missiles to my 1.

If you ride slowly enough you get fair accuracy. The higher ur HA the less penalty you get for shooting ont the go. 0 for luck shotguning,  2 is the bare minumum, 4 is satisfactory. Remember tho that HA still requires 6 agil each.    If you halt your horse while shooting you still shoot a bit less accurate then on foot IMO.

Throwers are more dangerous with thier uber lances torpedoes and rapid fire throwaxe, darts. 1 stray hit to the face and you can call it good night!
