The future of range after latest range changes

[Malaclypse]

The damage changes seem a little over the top. I don't feel like the damage change should affect throwing, at least not as much as compared to bows and crossbows. Crossbows have it a little easier off with a static reticule, but still, I'd say that if you're going to make accuracy more important, headshots key, you ought to revert the missle speeds to to previous or Native values.

With throwing your reticule doesn't really get as tight. Getting a headshot is already more of a crap shoot. Maybe decrease headshot damage for throwing slightly, and increase it for body a bit more than crossbows and archers.

Also, out of curiosity, do these damage changes affect shots against horses?

I think, that the damagereduction was too much for all ranged.

I was around with my alt and I received 2 arrows from a warbow. I have 15 str atm and 1 if and these two arrows took maybe 1/4 of my health   

How many shots shall this guy put into me before I die?

[Wraist]

Those two arrows would've done 37% of your life prepatch, a difference of roughly 6 health. That means 6 arrows prepatch, or 8 arrows now [unless you meant each arrow did 25%, in which case 3 arrows prepatch, 4 arrows now].

[Gisbert_of_Thuringia]

I know what kind of damage I take from arrows, believe me. And with that armour and only 1 If it would have taken more life prepatch

...and carries a decent melee weapon.

...and doesn't run 9 PD just to roofcamp and piss people off.

etc.

There are alternative ways of playing archer, tenne and inhumane are perfect examples of this.

Gameplay changes are not based on one person's above average performance.  Last night, I dropped the crossbow and took a War Cleaver.  With 1 wpf I was at the top of the scoreboard in minutes.  Then I took a bolt in the knee, didn't mind

[BlindGuy]

Okay so there was a lot of range players lately, a little too much....

Less recently than ever before.
Since your first sentence is incorrect I stopped reading.

Unlike you, jambi can barely fight in melee.

[BlindGuy]

He isnt good at archer duels either, but he spamms arrows out very fast and mops up. If next to score, it was listed DAMAGE DONE we would see very different things, since kills doesnt = skill OR dmg.
