Damage is perfect. Only problem is arrow speed. Right now arrows travel so slow you should be able to chamber them. Feels like I'm shooting beach balls. You can shoot arrows and your team mates can step into them at close range. At further range you can hit people reliably and it takes skill needing to lead your target but at short range its ridiculous. I'd be perfectly ok with a larger reticule to compensate for speed.

Archers not only need a bit of a damage buff since it was changed to cut and not pierce but they need their WPF to go 20% further imo.  Archers unless on a horse are pretty crappy these days.

Harmless, havoc,immt,selka,raina and many many more seem to do quite well with them. If the player knows how to make a good archer build, they can still tear. Doesn't powerdraw also up their accuracy?

The longbow needs a buff, nothing else in archery needs buffs or nerfs imo.

Does it really I remember when it reduced your accuracy?  I know Power THROW gives accuracy but I also know we got 10 power draw builds from some of the ATS guys builds and they say they can't hit shit.

10PD builds can't hit shit because of the 130 or 139 wpf you are stuck with (Depending on how much you convert to agil, either 9 or 12).

My personal problem is not the 10PD counteracting things, it is the 130 wpf kicking my bum, though regardless, it is bliss when a cav is trying to run you over or when you are defending a seige and trashing shields and tin cans marching up the ramp.

I honestly do not remember any accuracy change (maybe I was not paying close enough attention) when my PD increased, as I remember sinking my first point into PD, then after then going for my agil before increasing STR. So I pretty much had all of my agil first, and increasing PD from 1 to 10 only made a noticable difference in hitting power.

If it does decrease accuracy, I compensated by getting better at archery, and if it does increase accuracy then I guess that explains some of my shots hitting. I dunno...

Where am I?
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.

Would be really nice if it wasn't changed that would mean I have the accurate formula for it but I doupt it.  Yes, the old formula did get leaked and it did decrease your wpf with as your PD went up.

5 if?
why bother if you don't have 8 or more imo?  if I were you i'd just not have it an convert and pick up 1 point in something more useful.

Archers need to be stronger and be able to aim better without having to waste all points strictly on archery.

No. Archers aren't meant to do heavy damage to armor, xbows and throwers already fucking make heavy armor useless, we don't need archers making it *absolutely* useless.

Archers have a higher rate of fire over other range for a reason, they have to have some sort of drawback. It's amazing how people don't see that.
