[Stats] Increase accuracy of Arbalest (or MW Arbalest)

[Gisbert_of_Thuringia]

Oooohhhhh nooooo !!!!  You poor little guy miss shots with your arbalest? 

OMG!! How can that be!?!?  We should immediatley push it's accuracy to 150!

I know it's unimportant that you can aim forever. And that you deal so much damage that most people die after one shot and even a tincan after 1,5 shots.

Seriously, it really needs an accuracy buff! He needs to hit 99/100 shots, otherwise the game is unfair and the mod in general will die..





    Retarded suggestion, think before writing

Decrease this one-shotting-monster in speed, accuracy, damage and everything now

I still miss a fair few of my shots with my 160+ wpf mw arbalest. And its not just cause im bad.

I lol'd.

At least you take the flaming with humour.

Original siege crossbow (when crpg released) was the best.

nice try

[Gravoth_iii]

I voted to buff it to max, because i can.

31 people for a nerf, 23 for a buff and 13 to keep as is. Interesting so far.

Also Gisbert seems to have a bit of a crossbow hatred thing going on here, judging on some of his last posts.

Crossbow envy. He can't shoot his load as well as crossbowmen, the penetration is poor, and he can't hold his shot for very long either.

Is anyone brave enough to fraps themselves with a MW arbalest?

This has nothing to do with crossbow hatred....it's hatred against stupid buff-suggestions for already very strong weapons. 

If it would be about maybe hunting crossbow or whatever, I might consider a buff, because the first bows and crossbows are just useless, but the arbalest really has no need for a buff.

[Gurnisson]

I have lordly rus lamellar armor and lordly mail gauntelts, 21 str and 4 if. In melee sometimes I can take 4-5 full hits, some people with 6 or lower PS even glance often.

One random shot on the map ruins over half the map from a crossbowman took 70 % of my health, and it was a distance shot. So if I would have stand closer, I would be dead. Considering that I pay more than 1k gold for my armor I think the any reduction in speed, damage or accuracy would be fair.

Buff that thing? You must be kidding.

P.S: I played one whole Gen with MW arbalest and NOT loomed steel bolts, every second shot was a one-hit. rofl...

IF is mandatory vs. Arbalest. 27/12 builds could survive two shots (dies in three) from MW Arbalest and MW Steel Bolts when I was xbow (even when one shot was short/medium range and one shot was at facehugging distance). If you're just stacking armor with little strength and IF, well that's your choice. It will help against cut, but not pierce. Also, saying every other shot is one-hit is bullshit, and you know it.

I haven't been xbow in many months, but it doesn't need a nerf, seriously. Kiting archers dealing just a tad lower damage than arbalest on the other hand. They should be made a bit slower considering they're not trading much for great kiting abilities.

fuck all xbows and their users.

Ouch, bad luck with this thread Dongal, I might come visit you in the Burn Ward heh.
