Two G.O.B's?! Well I'm still the one doing awesome illusions.

As far as compensation goes, if we went full realism route (i.e: no moving at all while drawing) then yes, a massive increase in accuracy and reload speed would be appropriate. Just removing bunny hoping though?...Well I'm no archer, what do people who play as archers think would be good as compensation for removing that ability?

That would be a big nerf. You would have to compensate that somehow.
This, archers are already close to up imo, with the limitations of not being able to roof camp and not being able to kite they would become close to useless(And I say this as a cav player)

If it's only for archers, then I don't care.

If it's for melee aswell, then as a ninja I must oppose this.

Suggestion inside a suggestion:

Allow melee to use an overhead attack while jumping. It makes 'some' sense.

We will compensate by giving them a bonus hat.

I think the jumping should stay. Being able to draw, jump, shoot is a useful way of dodging enemy cav and still doing damage to horse/them. It's not only used in kiting  :| Taking that away would be a big nerf for archers.

No problem, we will nerf cav to compensate. Thanks for bringing this up.

What's wrong with melee jumpattacks? O.o

This, archers are already close to up imo, with the limitations of not being able to roof camp and not being able to kite they would become close to useless(And I say this as a cav player)

Doesn't this say something about archers? An entire class dedicated to making 2/3 of the playerbase completely USELESS through easily achievable means. I'm fine with upping their acc/reloadspeed or whatever a bit (to "compensate") to see this suggestion implemented (and the one about removing ladders) - if that makes them abide the "rules" the rest of us do (i.e every player on the field poses a potential threat).

No problem, we will nerf cav to compensate. Thanks for bringing this up.

Horse Archers, you will nerf Horse Archers to compensate.  :P

If I wanted to bring up realism I'd say archers shouldn't even be able to draw their bows while sidestepping, moving forwards or backwards, but that would be a gigantic nerf.
I see you never draw a real bow...
It is possible to draw a bow while moving.

But I agree... drawing while jumping isnt realistic and if the devs are going to remove it,
then they have to disallow tincans to dance and run like hyperactive athletes.
Also the jump-attacks should been reduced by 50% in damage(you cant swing your weapon while jumping to do more damage), because of realism.
