Screenshot or it didn't happen.




lol joking, which server were you on and did you visibily see he had 5 arrows in his chest?

[Kafein]

Damage is extremely random. With ranged weapons, distance matters a lot (shotgun effect).

[Bulzur]

Option 1 : You missed him 3 times.
Option 2 : You couldn't see his hair color because you were too far.
Option 3 : You were the unluckiest fellow, doing the least amount of damage, and he was the pure STR and IF character, with an heirloomed armor and gloves, giving +14 body armor.
Option 4 : You're a lier.


All options : Why should you remember when it took you (if it really did) 5 arrows to kill someone and not when it took you 2 to kill a tincan who wasn't even wounded at first ? Isn't this a bit... biaised ? And irrelevant ? And definitely ranting ?

[Adamar]

I saw him flinch from my shots 5 times, couldn't see the arrows easely because he was at a distance(although I can't be certain about anything at this point. I may have missed 1 shot. Hell it may have even been some other armor model, but it certainly wasn't plate);
I aimed accurately; 1 sword hit finished him off;
Im not lieing nor ranting, since other people die with less.Im just weirded out, I mean, I KNOW he's taking a ton of dmg but he just didn't die!;
He was apparently a pure polearm fighter, so the str and loomed armor theory may make sence;
I think it was the Inglorious server, as I remember the server rules saying something about nerfed xbows;

[Siiem]

Option 4 : You're a liar.

Or option 5. 2 PD

If it wasn't the official server, odds are good that the pierce damage on bodkins wasn't implemented there yet.

[SquishMitten]

yeah, maybe changes to the font colours too, followed by a hilarious meme

[SeQuel]

I think the only logical move here is to buff archery.

lolololololololololol

I doubt you have mw bodkins and mw longbow when you need so many shots for him^^

[Tot.]

isnt longbow, even despite that its a bow and its quite long, right?

Actual longbow takes 2 shots to kill medium/heavy armored dude.

[Adamar]

Alright, alright that's enought. Jeez...

It was probably some kind of bug, weird modded stuff. I accept that.
