Seriously? what the fuck?

Put archers back the way they were...it was fine.  Fine I tell you!
1-body shot kills are fine if the person is wearing light arming, and the shot is from an xbow.  The same is true for 1-body shot kills from a melee weapon, if the person is wearing light armor and gets hit by a Flam or Bardiche or something.

It was hard enough to get kills as an archer before...not its really really really hard.  I don't play archer btw, but I have in the past on a STF.

Go play Counter Strike

The irony is most juicy when one realises cRPG now demands headshots for ranged to be effective.  Perhaps they will add a headshot sound effect in the next patch.  He doesn't need to play cs, he is playing it.

Oh I´d LOVE Quakesounds in cRPG.

Its the thing im missing most from older shooters.

"Headshot" "M-mo-mo-MONSTERKILL"

Insta-fix: Anyone with a bow or crossbow or throwing should take extra damage to ranged.

Archers wear next to no armor and generally don't have that many points left over for IF. I rarely see an archer that can take more than 2 arrows or bolts already.

Actually, with the new patch, with my MW Arbalest it takes me at least 3 shots to take down most archers... that are wearing cloth...from a medium range.

The ranged nerf is ridiculous.

Needs to be balance.

X bows had a quick drop off of effective range so reverting damage to old but possibly increase rate of energy loss in model would do?

[SixThumbs]

I don't know if it was intended but there were a few instances where I've taken no perceptible damage from range and most of the time I take about a twentieth of my health if I'm wearing my try-hard gear. There were even a few instances wearing padded armor where I took damage from range that did barely nothing.

I think if you're wearing less then mail you should be able to be killed by range in a hit or two but as it stands now only 10 PD builds really do anything with body-shots. Headshots with my unloomed vaegir war mask have taken about half health but good luck landing those consistently.

I only got 8 PD, putting every other point in weapon master and my longbow still feels like a shotgun. Instantly switched over to machinegunbow postpatch. Being a longbow user was not exactly easy prepatch, but I really wanted to get something out of this bow. Sadly the nerf now forced me too to join the hornbow faction. I guess this will be the only weapon for archers youll see for the next time on the battlefield.

Ranged makes up 95% of the effective damage in CS regardless of headshots or not, your 'irony' attempt fails.
