Upkeep too high -(impossible to HA)

updated:

As a HA today i went on the cheapest horse possible. The higher breaking chance for arrows making the upkeep together from arrows and horses impossible to keep up even with really low cheap armor and the cheaper tadar arrows.

I lost 25k after about 2.5 hours of gameplay as HA.

This higher breaking chance for arrows really need a fix to keep the HAs alive in game. Recently quite a few HAs going other class. I still see 1 HA rarely now on EU1 earlier, but after contacting with Hentzi and Cris i heard that they were also bleeding money. It is now near impossible to not loss money when u play HA.
( for all these lance haters.. guess what? , its the HAs who dehorse those fucking backstab lancers.)

Hope the balance team can see this post.

Thanks in advance.

Currently wearing 31k and making money but up and down between multipliers.

25k at x1 seems fine. Maybe aim for that?

They deliberately made it where arrows break much more often.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

Upkeep was made to not loose money at 25k. If you're at 38k + playing archer with 2 quiver, then yes, you'll loose money.
Regular arrows are the only one to take now, since there's enough damage already, you just want one quiver with as many arrows as 2 quiver of bodkin ones. And less expensive.

18k equip, lost 10 k, got scared, didn't played since.

Crossbow (middle one) >800 to repair. Pre-patch I repaired arbalest for 934, lol. Upkeep is WAY too high + now weapons (most expensive what I wear) break almost ALWAYS (xbow got broken 3\4 matches. 145 WPF, IMO that's not "low wpf" mentioned in patch notes)

And bam, upkeep fixed for new patch, 8-10% higher then normal in theory from pre-patch standards.

Rejoice!

Bullshit, i lost 5 k this morning playing for 1 hour with my my old friendcher just to see what changed. And that was with x5 rounds and many x2 etc etc. I was using a tunic, no shoes, no gloves, horn bow .2 quivers and cheap ass meele weapon....Money went up and down like crazy, in the end 5k less.

Probably 2 quivers of bodkin arrows, probably a melee weapon with 0 wpf wich broke each round.

You need to wait a few days, not a few hours to get an reliable estimate of the real upkeep costs...

It's randomized, remember?
