Please, please, can we have 2 slot bows!?

[Adamar]

Limit quivers to 1 per player, increasing the amount of arrows in the process, and reduce the accuracy penalty from armor.

That's all the class needs to be ballanced in itself.

[BlindGuy]

What about Fighting Axe in 2h mode? >100 reach with most swings, breaks shields, fast and hits harder than most 1h swords.

Or a 1-hander, with or without the 0-slot buckler. Archers have plenty of options. Embrace the slot system; I myself remember having an Arbalest+bolts, a long maul, and a pike all equipped at once. That was utterly stupid.

There is no combination of weapons I have not tried, remember I was here from 1st peasant wars, seems so long but it was only a couple of years. I just want the longbow to be 2 slot, currently it is 3 slot and that sucks. When the slots came in, I actually stopped playing for bit, then spent next 3 months of playing just trying to find something I liked...kinda have it but...longbow really needs to be reduced to 2 slots same as hornbow, give it a reason for excisting, all those archers you see do well with it, they would do immesurably better with rus bow, longbow really has no purpose.

Not to more than 18 though, also 20 if loomed (not sure about the number, arrows should be used wisely and not spammed). That should be enough.

You can take 27 with a quiver of +3 arrows. But you wont kill anything but peasants with those

Try Tatar or Horn bow. On masterwork, 2 hits for light armored, 3-5 for medium or heavy armored while using Arrows +3 with an 18/18 build. Very short reload time, this are actually ordinary bows. If you want more damage, accept that you have more arrows and a 0-slot melee weapon or less arrows and a 1-slot melee weapon. If you do not accept this, you should play as a crossbowman.

I do not see why you are complaining.

Btw, no expirience with the Yumi so far. The stats do not look bad tbh. Just test it as well

And please, do not limit the number of quivers archers may bring. Why should they not be allowed to bring as much arrows as they want? Adal and me often use a 1 slot bow to bring 3 quivers of bodkins, tatars or barbed arrows. Why do you think about restricting this?

The longbow is pointless when compared to others.

[Leshma]

It would be awesome if they changed number of slots taken by certain weapons like bows, xbows, trowing and spears when used with a shield.

[Zlisch_The_Butcher]

Well, spamberge is unsheathable, so no worries there, and maybe a way needs to be found so the Poleaxe archers dont come back I guess.

Make certain weapons (greatswords, gmauls, longmauls, poleaxes, shit like that) 3 slot?

Again, I have been playing this longer than you, I have tried every combination you can even imagine and several more. The fact that you think it is ok to take a stupid horsebow and 3 quivers shows you really are a scumcunt. No offence, I'm sure you think your a great person, but kiteing is just NOT OK. Archers need to be able to stand their ground and fight. Currently I think only 3 of us do this. Tenne is a well sung hero of this. I have been doing it for 2 years. But it needs a buff. Kiters need a massive nerf. This is a game about fighting.

Balance-wise: Kiteing needs removing. Realism-wise: Kiteing needs removing.

The fact that crossbows reload so fast and fire so accurately is a whole other issue.

[Havoco]

Sidearm slot? One that would enable you to carry another weapon but not of the same class?

[Tot.]

Limit quivers to 1 per player

That's all the class needs to be ballanced in itself.

Small quiver: 0-slot and few arrows.
Normal quiver: 1-slot and same number as now.
Large quiver: 2-slot and 1.5 as what 1 quiver has now.

These items would work wonderfully together with only 1 quiver per person.

Use weapon racks to refill if you really need it (no weapon rack? Shamefur dishpray!)

Funny that 2 out of 4 mentioned already is 3 slots.

[Zlisch_The_Butcher]

lol, should've bothered checking the slots before posting, but yeah, make those 2 STAY 3 slots  , and btw, really ain't 2 out of four when the other two I mention are weapon classes.

[OpenPalm]

There are 2 slot bows... Horn bow and Tatar bow are pretty baller.
