SAVE CRPG! NERF RANGED

[polkafranzi]

Look, archers have crap scores, a really hard time defending themselfs in melee, and are a minority. Its the melee, in general, that decides the battle. With that in mind, why would archers be nerfed?

Sorry I should have said something like "nerf the damage of headshots by 10%" rather than just nerf.  Archers also by no means have crap scores, the good archers, just like the good melee or cav, can easily go 20-1 on any map/gametype.

More serious post than my last few so far in this thread:

I must admit - my fail HA alt, using the standard HA build that I found in the guides section,

That's why u go 7/30 HX build. 5 HA and +3 Light Xbow and +3 Steel Bolts and +3 Courser = EPIC SAUCE. And then make it lvl 35 and u can go 12 riding and 6 HA.

Its really not the same. You can collect kills like that with a lance or a 2handed weapon, but certainly not with a bow. Any veteran will tell you that.

Derp.  Thanks for the advice Mr Dick.

You can also totally suck with a lance and a 2h weapon, but who cares about the poeple with 0-7 every map be they cav or 2h.  This is about a tiny nerf which makes sense we're not asking much.

So the only problem you have is the headshot damage? Guess I can understand that. I might be ok with that. It'd only affect bad and average archers. Archers like Itchy, Aderyn, Dama (does he play anymore.. I haven't seen him in a while) wouldn't be affected nearly as much.

Think it'd be better if it affected bows differently. Impossible with this engine afaik but if the tatar bow/horn bow couldn't do the amount of damage a rus or longbow could, it'd be more balanced.

Final conclusion: NERF HEADSHOT DMG BY 10%

[Adamar]

  Sure, but also remove the accuracy penalty from weight. So, you know, we see less kiters...

And you will see more tincans  .

Funny, this thread, that for the most part was just trolls, we actually got somewhere...

How about...

New thread in suggestions area with title "Nerf HS damage by 10%"

2 options, yes or no.  Lock it.  No trolling.  See what the people think.

If I make it as a biased ranged hater people will vote no so we need a neutral to make it ^^

Good idea!

[Adamar]

I'd vote no, because as I've said before, even with my mw longbow and sharp bodkins people survive headshots regularly. So, unless you add an accuracy bonus to that suggestion, its no.

[XyNox]

Ranged will vote no to nerfs, ranged haters will vote yes to nerfs, now guess who has the bigger lobby. Thats right, its Aragorn and his fanboys.

[Adamar]

Actually I've noticed some infs saying that ranged is fine, whenever someone whines about ranged in the servers. But yeah, people will always hate getting shot.

This is truly just bullshit you must be doing something wrong.

Hetman has a shittier bow and it's ALWAYS a one hit headshot.  Same for Nebun.

Also...Megalol at the use of regularly to add insult to injury....
