Even theWitch switched to crossbow, so OP is this class. 8-)

I don't think that Xbow is OP, however...

everyone has one!

This madness has to stop. Again we have too much ranged bundle of sticksry in this mod.

Can you do something about it? Nerf it, put reqs higher, anything?

Edit: When I saw Rubicon with the Xbow, I wanted to strangle myself with the keyboard cable...

If I see Chase using one on his 2H char, I'll definately go nuts.

Leshma: i think Chase already uses it occasionally, in any case - yes, we have way too many crossbow users, even people who never wanted to use it are simply forced into it cause they get frustrated with dying to firing squads or unreachable snipers. I could name a dozen people who I'd never think I'd see with a crossbow but yet they are playing it. That's just how it is, it's easier to find a cover and shoot then just run forwards and get pincushioned by bows, crossbows & throwing things. Ranged is over-used and there's nothing more to it. Solution ?   None. You can't kill it off by nerfs, limitations of all kinds, nothing. Even if you gave them just 1 bolt or 1 arrow to shoot people will still play archers & crossbowmen and you'd had at least 1 volley per round that would bring down many before they reach combat. Easy mod & free kills FTW.
Do you honestly think you have any sort of moral authority, Reyiz? Go genocide some more armenians and deny it ever happened, please, and stay in the middle east.

I complain about range spam yet I let an archer join my clan and before that every ex-my old friend member used a crossbow, but it is ok we are not hypocrites because we have special privileges due to a variety of imaginative excuses that no one else is allowed to use.

Right.
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.

How exactly does having used ranged and still using it, yet admitting it is over-used make him a hypocrite?  :|

I never said he was a hypocrite, I said he was not a hypocrite...  :|
I was just summarizing his post for the TL:DR version.

Gazda was horse archer before Gnjus and him created my old friend, then Gazda choose throwing instead of archery. I was hybrid archer for short period of time before I joined my old friend and I think it sux to be an archer. I used Xbow and was thrower for one gen but I dislike ranged (tho being super OP thrower who one hit the most skilled 2H players had some advantages, I won't lie  :mrgreen:).

Btw Gnjus is a famous xbowman and Fasader's favourite weapon is xbow. If one of them says that something is wrong with number of xbows on the battlefield, that's how it is.

I agree with Gnjus about ranged. They suck so much at everything else, even if they had 1 arrow they would still play it.

So most ranged players suck at everything bar releasing projectiles? Right...
