throwing is broken

[Rumblood]

QQ moar. The hitbox is extremely easy to hit. Wardarts are not exactly designed to do anything else than annoying and stunning people.

Talk out your ass moar. I'm not a thrower, that's not my war dart. Head shots on unarmored horses very often don't kill the horse even with speed bonus on a full speed charge with MW Horn with MW Bodkins and PD 6. The SAME head shot placement on an ARMORED horse 1 shots it every time.

I oneshot a full health charger today with my heavy throwing axe. I bet the rider wasn't too pleased... When the horseman charges right at you the head is ridicilously EASY to hit. I've done this shit with arbalest too. Sometimes the horse just doesn't die, and you die. Just deal with it. Shoot the rider instead if it is so hard.

Btw how many times have you seen a dude with throwing axe in his head even if the guy doesn't have a helmet? hmm? I'd bet several dozen of times. The character head hitboxes aren't perfect either and everyone should be aware of this by now...

Odin is right. I use a Head Cloth for my helmet and I had a throwing axe hang out and only lost 1/3rd health.

Shocking that a weapon with an edge 20 times the size of a point based weapon would find the pea brain  I bet you are impressed when a flamberge hits a body when a dart goes under the armpit was well

Throwers do alot of damage to horses, but there is nothing you can do it aim a throwing weapon its just luck where it ends up hitting so its not hard to avoid getting hit by a throwing weapon. At the same time if your cav a thrower is the last person you would want to attack, they do tons of damage, can easily hit you if you charge them, and they usually don't kill very many people and therefore they contribute very little to their team so your not helping your team as much as you could by wasting time killing someone whose a step above a peasant in terms of value. I dont know if they are ment for hybrids, thrower hybrids are gimp in melee and gimp in throwing. I think its something that's just for fun or something for people who aren't good enough to do anything else.

Which one of the following things are right?
You suck at throwing insanely.
You've never actually tried throwing.
Or you're intentionally lying.

I doubt you could hit a target 15-20 yards away even 5 out of 10 tries. With a bow you could easily hit it 10 out of 10 times, because there is actual aiming involved with a bow, a throwing weapon is completely random.

That's the definition of "accurate". Didn't you know?

It's shocking that I have to keep quoting myself to you.

Dunno how the throwing axe blade affects the hitboxes etc... Well your suggestion (I assume because you said you dont QQ) to solve this great wronging is? Making the shitbox larger?

Btw Lemmy do you realize how long your sentences are?

[Lemmy_Winks]

Odin you don't need periods when you've got commas.

Oh is that so? I never knew ^^

lol, you really, REALLY, don't know shit....

[Ronin]

No need to be harsh here. Throwing really seems useless at the beginning. Discovering it's magic, is something comes when you're more experienced with them.

And lemmy, are you still a one handed cav? I think the issue here is, there are not much good throwers to piss you off. Because, [throwing=lesser accuracy+bigger damage]. In which the accuracy part is not that important for horses, just because they are bigger. Which makes throwing, a counter to cavalry. Yes. I believe the reason you did not get pissed off by throwing is, the lack of good throwers in quantity.

I'm forced to agree with Lemmy on not being able to hit a target at 20 yards more than 50% of the time. You really just don't know where the weapon will go at that range beyond a general direction (not to mention people will run out of the way). Now a horse at 20 yards is fairly easy to hit, especially if running perpendicular to you. Throwing is truly best against cav, they rarely pay attention if you don't have a spear and thus ride nice and close to danger, but only when the hit boxes aren't screwed up. This is with 7 PT and 140 wpf.
