Archer´s draw

[Lanic0r]

You should change the drawing system for bows completely!
instead of taking time before archers crossshair becomes tight it should spread in no time and prevent this stupid holding time for >3 seconds before release.
Either these shitcunts shoot right after 0.5sec or crosshair should spread like the big bang!

[Christo]

Problem isn't with their draw time imo.

The real problem is how damn mobile they can be, even when you hit them with a melee weapon, they just accelerate-out of your melee range and kite you again.

Also, wrong section.

[Miley]

Archers aren't a problem. Do you want to give crossbows and throwing another +?

[Christo]

Yes they are.

You might not have an infestation of runchers over there, but it's horrible on EU.

Horrible.

[Tears of Destiny]

Playing on EU, and also looking at the damage comparisons that were posted for NA and EU, your archers are dealing the same total in NA despite being 50% more common.

Be happy that they are too busy running to be effective. Also be happy that most of them have crap awareness

I think I see it the total opposite, at least from my experiences.

Typos are cool yo.

Regardless, you have more archers on EU, and the damage total numbers posted were almost identical. To each their own though.

How do you know there are more archers in EU, the stats cmp gave did not have number of players per class. Also I want to punch your avatar in the face.

Well everytime I play there it goes from a light rainstorm to a heavy rainstorm when compared to arrow spam. I rarely have to dodge so much when in NA, nor do I hear so many thunks around me, and there are a crapton of archers it seems at all times. Gnjus also agrees 

As for your second part, I am extremely pleased to hear that, and I shall keep this avatar then for a very long time since it has been so polarizing for so many people (I liked Boxxy, was rather amusing).

Yea...about time for another guy to come around and cry out loud "NERF ARCHERY"

sad...

[Niemand]

Seems like you never played an archer. Well I don't give a shit about your whining, but you should know:

I got 5 Powerdraw, 160 Archery, using a Horn Bow.

My Crosshair opens after 2 to 3 seconds. When I move while aiming the crosshair nearly hits the frames of my 23" screen. I got to archer close-range from time to time, since I am a pure-archer and got no second weapon. I just release the arrow while the crosshair is open wide and often I make a lucky hit. - So the small-crosshair-time is too small in my opinion but I think its fair, I don't complain.

I am using Tatar-Arrows... and all I seem to do is wounding the enemy so my team can kill them easier. I barely make any kills with it - but I hit pretty often, so I do not really suck at playing, I guess. I also need around 5 Arrows to get somebody down that is wearing Leather-Armour. When I gotta shoot Tincans... well... I guess 10 to 15 arrows are not enough. While I get killed by onehits from XBows when I am using my 30/9 (10 IF) Trollarm-Char. Also my Archer gets killed by Bolts 7 out of 10 Deaths. - So my damage Is not even high enough to kill a peasant with one shot. I am not complaining about that, I just shoot another arrow.

Yes, there may be a lot of archers. But not everybody is suited for blocking/chambering or spamming/fainting.
A Greatsword kills me with two hits... I got onehitted by Onehand-swords, too. Once in a while some tincan-bastard comes at me weaponless and just bashes me to death with his steel gloves.

Edit: To state more negative things about archery:
- If somebody runs into us, we gotta draw again.
- We can't wear heavier armour without having some heavy malus on our WPF.
- Nearly no one tries to help the archers in their team, that are in danger.
- Whenever somebody sees us he rushes for us, instead of fighting the guy he was one on one before. They do not care if they get killed, as long as they kill us.

You wanna nerf archers? Play one for 3 Month before you complain.

Are you saying throwers have more perks than archers?

[Vibe]

Less running power, more melee power for archers?

[Herkkutatti666]

Buff throwing

No need. Everything is fine as it is.
