throwing is broken

It takes too many shots to kill someone with the limited amount of ammo available to me and the accuracy on throwing weapons isn't great enough that I can rely on just aiming for people's heads. I'm not sure what the solution is to fixing it or if there is even one but throwing is no longer a viable option and that makes me sad.

Throwing is all this man does, cut him (and me) some slack!

It does feel retarded atm. I put 9 +1 wardarts 3PT into some one with about 50-60 armour and then had to hit him 3 times with my side sword... I mean I should have just hit him with my side sword. Maybe throwing just needs a buff to dmg to compensate for the range patch. A throwing axe/spear/dart is a completely different beast to an arrow.

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. :(
Fammi un pompino!

I think I have ball cancer in my right nut :(
Good news everybody! It's not nut cancer :)
Bad news everybody, I got dumped :(

I took 2 javs from a jav cav (added speed bonus as we were moving towards each other) and still had about 5% health left. Usually that would be insta death. Even though I was only wearing Kazakh armour. Does not bode well for anything even close to medium armour.

Takes me 4 throwing lances to kill a tincan full strength friend of mine (4 is 4 slot max amo btw), before patch guy died by three (or a few blunt lance hits after 2 throws).

BTW: Proud throwers unite! We shall no longer be discriminated against in the duel server! Throwers are humans too! All throwers gather in Zlisch' eventual thrower pride parade thread!
1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.

Throwing is broken if your a hybrid  :lol:
I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

I'm not a hybrid. It's broken all together unfortunately.

No it's broken if your a pure thrower to. I've had plenty of pure throwers chucking stuff at my archer in a padded jack and it barely hurt.

The only one who was successful was Thomek with his shurikens when he headshotted me at very close range and he's not even pure thrower.

Throwing was totally ok before the patch IMO.

And it took ages and loads of buffs and nerfs and changes to get it there.

The ranged class least hurt by the archer nerf is....archery  :| Clearly, much forethough was given to this nerf.

Seems to be that way. Throwing should not have even been included in any nerfs. It was just fine.

I used to be afraid of Chestaclese whenever I saw him on the enemy team, last night he hit me and that fear dissipated.
And how!

Yeah, I can see it in everyone  when I hit them heh. I don't scare anyone anymore.
