No, something needs to be changed. There is too many archers using bodkins.

Lies, it doesn't ever settle back to the point where it would if you didnt draw at all. You lose at least 25 wpf in accuracy by moving around, even after you stop.

Ah, so you don't move around as you draw the bow in between shots? I must be seeing things.

Make it so drawing a bow takes much longer if you move while doing it, or make running MUCH slower when drawing a bow, but not completely disable drawing while moving, cuz that would be overnerfing. As of now there is no real penalty for drawing while moving, so that you see archers doing that even when theyre not being shot at, there should be some major penalty for moving during a draw.

I haven't read much of the posts but, how is hybriding not OP?

With my archer alt, I have at level 30:
5 IF
6 PS
6 PD
6 ATH
6 WM

140 wpf in archery (quite accurate if you play a mid range game)
85 wpf in 1h (proficient melee wpf)

My 2h alt is basically on par with my archer in melee except higher wpf or maybe 1 more ath/PS... But with 1h weapons, so many high speed weapons to choose from. Anyone else think this? Can't even imagine how awesome this kind of character would be with masterworks.
The problem with hybrids is that they are largely useless in strat (you don't want your archers dying in a place where they might lose their bow). They are fantastic in battle though.

Anyway as a ranged class, you only need athletics, a few points in PS and a mace to stand a chance at melee. And by standing a chance, I mean a real one. You don't need wpf at all with the mace. And your lightweight setup + athletics gives you blazing speed and acceleration, largely compensating for the mace shortness.

do not forget - this works with any kind of build. For example - Shock trooper (15-24) with Bec or morningstar.

Moving around and shooting with the bow only works at point blank range. Otherwise as soon as you move with your bow drawn the crosshairs widen, even if you stop they keep just getting wider.

Sigh. How come you guys don't know how archery works? Come on! You move while you draw, then stop right before you would normally be able to shoot. Success! You just moved while drawing and shot at 100% normal accuracy!
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

They are GK´s what did you expect?
I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

It's funny because Tzar has no idea how cavalry works.
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.
