I agree fully with Tzar. I mean cmon, could you survive an arrow irl? NO! No armor or shit can help you, armor was just made to protect agains sword slashes etc (look it up, mail is good for protecting against cuts but it is shit vs blunt/arrows/bolts) What was the biggest killer on a medieval battlefield? ARROWS AND BOLTS!
By my most current test and calculations (with a MW Horn bow + MW boodkins and 7 PD) it takes:
12-14arrows to kill a str tincan (70 armor 75 hp)
10-12 arrows to kill a medium armor guy (50 armor 70hp)
8-9 arrows to kill a light armor target (30-40 armor 60 hp)
7-8 arrows to kill a fake peasent (10 armor 75 hp)
and 5 arrows to kill a real peasent (8 armor 35 hp)
Realy devs??? 14 arrows to kill a guy, what the fuck is this shit At fifteen, I had the will to learn ; at thirty, I could stand ; at forty, I had no doubts ; at fifty, I understood the heavenly Bidding ; at sixty, my ears were opened ; at seventy, I could do as my heart lusted without trespassing from the square.
BUFF RANGED!
You are wrong dear friend. We all know that the typical archer build, according to Paul/Urist, is 5 PS. And typical build of a tin can is 85 armor! And archers don't have speed bonus of any kind! Therefore, if my calculations are correct:
24-28 arrows to kill a str tincan (70 armor 75 hp)
20-24 arrows to kill a medium armor guy (50 armor 70hp)
16-18 arrows to kill a light armor target (30-40 armor 60 hp)
12-16 arrows to kill a fake peasent (10 armor 75 hp)
and at least 10 arrows to kill a real peasent (8 armor 35 hp)
Also, have in mind that melee was very buffed recently, so that it can hit in the head archer with Claymore ONLY three times and KILL HIM!!!
BUFF RANGED NAO!!!!!!!!!!!!
