I was watching Rohirrim Charge and the Battle of the Pelennor Fields to get in to the mood, suddenly i looked at Legolas and thought," can people really shoot 2 arrows at the same time?" if yes, can it be added to cRPG? Archery is hardly nerfed so, some new features might be funny for them, for example, if someone presses X while holding the bow, attack mode changes and archer fires 2 arrows with less accuracy and speed.

What do you think? I was serious on that post.

I would hardly find it any useful anyway. I neither guess that all 2-3 arrows would hit the same time target, wouldnt be as effective as shooting a single arrow only.

Dont think its possible with the warband engine either. ;)

Well, when an archer is running away, he/she can turn back and fire 2 arrows randomly, that might increase his chance!

After all the discussion about kiting archers, that's a feature you really want to have added?

If we taking suggestion from the Rohirrim then we definitely need to buff cav charge ASAP. I don't see no BS horses rearing going on there!

it is possible: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYRujsj9Z_Q

but it won't be very effective, the arrows wouldn't be going very for nor have the same stopping power as a single arrow would have. of course accuracy is another issue. Even if it would be viable to do this it won't be great for cRPG, then HA would use it to get close to an armored knight and sray a shotgun-volley of arrows on them to kill them with one shot.

That's cool. 4 throwing axes at once :)

Firing two arrows would effectively halve the power of each arrow, since the force is less concentrated.

75% dmg
75% accuracy
75% missile speed
75% draw speed
Divergent directions ofc

"fun option, barely worth using

If you really want something awesome from Lord of the Rings, then allow archers to stab people with arrows.
