Because when you chop everything by 31% suddenly numbers seem very close.

Regardless, The Fallen Brigade notices the slight missile speed between the bows, it does make a difference.

I'd love faster arrows from my longbow considering how little time we get with an accurate window and how long it takes to actually prep an arrow.  Alas, I'm getting used to what we have to work with.  Archery is still quite nice, especially en masse.

If you've shot any arrows from the shittier bows in Strat and you are used to being awesome with a longbow you can FEEL how slow the damn things move in the air.  Even the nerfed longbow speeds are much easier to work with than the 'slower than a throwing weapon' short bow of Team Villager.

All bows should have their speeds boosted back to where they were though.

Been suffering thru 30 levels of archer... makes me wanna *puke*!

I cannot recommend archer to anyone wanting to play C-Rpg, much less using a longbow - which only makes it more frustrating... damage is too low, arrow speed for all arrows are too slow (easily dodged - wtf?) and the list goes on.  Not trying to whine, but if you're looking for a class to play in C-Rpg, then archer is certainly out.

Like Pandor Archer said, might as well delete the class...

Looking forward to 2H OP build like the rest once I retire in a level.  :P

Hey if you don't want to play it then fine don't roll archer, but leave it and don't delete the class so folks like me can keep having fun...

Word. Lovin my 2h/archer hybrid atm. Would love it if the picking up arrows bug was fixt tho. When you only have 1 stack of arrows it gets very frustrating.

I was being overly sarcastic... certainly need archers in this game and I normally love to play them in other games, but honestly, C-RPG archers have problems (the arrow pickup bug, the accuracy exploit(?), slow arrows, low arrow damage, etc.).    The most frustrating for me is simply the fact that we shouldn't have to put 5+ arrows into someone to drop them. *sigh*

This.  I'm still dinking around on my 2 hander till archery is fixed.

No? How about 1 hitting everyone all the time, is that good enough?
