Sick and tired of the 'omglol ONESHOTS!!1!!' crying. Play the class, and you'll find out that the one-shots are a lot rarer than you think.
I voted Gurnisson cause of his fucking bendy pike, I swear noone can roflcopter stab like he can.

This is true, 1 shots are actually not that common even with a MW arbalest, but it will still deal more damage in one hit then anyother attack except the couched lance. So people rage. But anyhow, imo the pikes/long spears are alot worse then the xbow. Atleast if you get shot by the xbow you have a chance. Getting stunlocked by a 300 length tootpick while his 1h/2h friend finish you off is alot more annoying.

And once again we return to the realm of "NERF TEAMWORK!"   :lol:
Sorry, couldn't resist.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

Honestly I have an easier time fighting a two handed maniac and a pike buddy then I do against a pair of two handed maniacs.
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.

Two people work together to kill stunlock you.

Well you see when you block the first 2h'd sword, and the 2nd one hits you causing the stun, the first one swings again hitting you (forcing another stun) and then the 2nd one swings again.  So on and so forth.  Replace 2h with 1h, arrow, bolt, polearm, pike, thrown weapon, horsebump at will.

If you get stunlocked you can try:

1. Avoid fighting two competant players at the same time.

2. Get friends who will watch your ass for you.
Maybe you are not bad, but you are a boring person. Well, that's the end of the matter.

I disagree, you have a chance vs those. If someone has longspear/pike you don't.

Very this, used to throw massive ragefits about crossbows when I was 2h/pole/cav, but I'm currently playing my first Xbow gen with MW Arbalest and +2 Steel Bolts, and one shot kills are rare, there are even NAKED players that can survive a chest hit...

Crossbow is raw damage output = it will do the same damage all the time I belive, so a naked person with high IF could ahve a higher chance of surviving compared to low IF medium high armour.

cant be that rare when i keeps happening to me!?
Also im not crying im just trying to point out that they have got to much dmg and they are way too accurate!
I remember the good old days when everyone whined about archery..(Threads was pretty much like this one) and they got nerfed all the fucking time...
As i said, im gonna play as a xbower pretty soon...

And I'm sick and tired of the damned lobyists who like this randomness. Can't you see that my suggestion is actually a buff in terms of killing?
