What do you think abut the archery nerf?

[Boerenlater]

As someone who doesn't wear heavy armor (body armor under 36 for like, ten gens here), I did notice ranged. A lot. I'm glad I don't die in two body shots anymore, but think the nerf is too extreme.

I agree.

We all know what this poll is going to show.

I voted option 6 because I've been melee the last few gens, but if there were options for stating "I've played both" I would have voted there (and so would a bunch of people I bet).

I think the archery nerf was good because if you wear full plate armour you can take up to 20 shots before getting kill. I have tested this myself

I am human and I think Joker86 is a twat.

it wasn't an argument, it was a fact.

Balance!

When the last arrow flies, when dedicated xbows stop taking xbows and when throwers can't hit a castle wall from 15ft away then the game will turn into melee circlejerk with some losers still clinging to gimped cav.

How was ranged nerfed btw

Did they throw the arrows at you?

Just don't listen to him...he has tested everything in reallife, everytime something is being discussed

fuck archers

I was a melee with Lordly Rus Scale and I got 2-3 shot usually.

Now arrows bounce off me and I hardly have IF.

So I bought a MW Horn Bow and became archer, it is definitly a bit too extreme.

Jup. A nerf would have been ok, but not a nerf making bodyshots totally useless. Something like maybe 20% dmg reduction to test it out first instead of almost 40%

As much as I hate archers I kind of agree. Keep the change but reduce it's effects. Don't know what value it's set to now but something like this could work:

40% damage reduction to limbs
20% damage reduction to body
30% damage increase to head

Being shot in the heart should kill.
