Rule of thumb is too always buff things imo.. not too nerf them.

Agreed.It's very unreal to survive to more than 5 arrows in your body :shock:

Think i got 35/0 somewhere but cba to find it  :P

Nerf is more effective than Buff!

This is Prepatch....

If u heirloom a bow 3 times, get 8 Pd and 150 wpf in  archery then its OK.
But i still think the archer animation is a little slow....

i think chadz should just increase the arrow speed but not the damage, because with high arrow speed, it allows u to aim more accurate. so u dont need to aim too high to adjust ur range, so what is it mean is that archers will have to use their skills to aim for the head no the body. because body shot does almost no damage right now. So i think instead add damage to the bow, y dont chadz just add the speed to the arrows, which will require skills for the archers and wont destroy the balance of this game.

Whenever I hit a target I can two or three shot them every time. Might I ask what you are shooting at that gives almost no damage? Tin Cans are usually arrow proof, and extreme range shooting is not supposed to hit very hard.

In NA I had a K/D ratio of 5 earlier today before the fog vanished (I do best in fog maps, they suit my playstyle), and only three kills were headshots, and two-thirds of them were not even assists (Shooting damaged targets).

EDIT: Also, what bow and arrow type are you using?

I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

Yeah, from last July. Notice tagless phazh aswell :D


But back to topic. Archery is still very effective and doesn't need any kind of buffing. Now just personal skills comes more in need as your going to miss a lot more arrows and with less damage you need to know who to shoot, where and when. Rather shoot a backstepping enemy in closer range than enemy archer in edge of enemy team.

This is where I disagree. Archers should be rewarded for shooting each other.

We never nerfed archery. We just buffed armour indirectly.

Well as long as arrows loose damage really fast at any kind of distance its not really that attractive an alternative. The only times i shoot at archers far away is when im trying to force them to move a bit or if its a friend of mine.

Yes they are very weak.  I also have power draw 7 and it takes me 5 body shots to kill someone in medium armor.  It is not worth it to go archer.  That is why you see so many new throwers.

prepatch i was a OK archer, after the new patch i rerolled a thrower((didnt like the new Nerfs)...after a while throwing got boring, i rerolled as a archer again. but yes i think archers are a little weak. 8 PD and im aiming for 156 Wpf...had to convert 14 Skillpoints to get a Ok archer again...

7 PD archer, 101 wpf, and I'm doing great, sure it may take more than 3 arrows to kill higher armors, but I'm still killing people without too much problem, aiming isn't that much of a problem either.
