SiegeShields and Arbalests

[Mike_of_Kingswell]

Hey guys,

wondered about this 2 balancings the last days:

1.: How come a SIEGEShield is killed soooo easy by arrows/bolts? Its a SiegeShields and it takes less hits than a Houscarls? Doesnt make much sence to me.

2.: How come naked people survive a shot to the chest with an (non masterworked) Arbalest with normal (non masterworked) bolts? Seams that the arbalest was balanced while watching the MW Arbalest with MW Steelbolts...still doesnt make sence to survive a shot to a chest if your naked.

I have been oneshot by arbalests with 56 hitpoints and 53 body armour with shots to limbs. That was probably with a masterwork arbalest and masterwork bolts, but I if a normal arbalest would get buffed, the looms need to get nerfed cause it shouldn't get anymore powerful.

On the surviving thing, its super build dependant.

I have 8IF last build and I was surviving couched lances to the head with a morion on.

Yesterday I 1 hit someone at the start of the round using and arb with no extra ammo, so you probably just shot some tanked up fake peasant from a fair distance away.

On the siege shield thing, I totally agree they should last way longer than they do against bolts/arrows.
