Increase bump range for archers with WSE

[XyNox]

cRPG is very buggy atm. Teleporting, ghosting hits, tunneling through time and space, server-client desync, massive lag spikes etc. When those are fixes I am willing to spend some time on the duel server with you joker, to test one thing or another regarding your problems, how does that sound to you ?

Good, of course. But the fact that on short range shields are not impenetrable any more is widely known, as far as I have read.

I have read contradictory statements regarding this. It is hard to tell what is exaggeration and what is not.

The only thing I know for sure is that I cant remember a single time clearly shooting through a shield with a bow. It maybe the same "bug" which is causing "blocks not to register" as where I came to the conclusion this is caused by the server-client desync, so the enemy is aleady behind you, swinging around your block instead of standing right next to like it is displayed on your screen. Once people notice its easy to abuse.

All in all the only things I can provide about the cause of shield penetration are speculations so I am interested in testing this as well.

I like it when I'm close enough to an archer to sexually molest him but he can still shoot me in the face because apparently that's still not close enough.

Exactly. And you can also watch your arrows pass straight through a players chest without doing anything.

You don't see archers asking for a proximity stun for arrows being within 10 feet of someone like shielders think they should get.

This topic really needs a bump and a necro. As the last man standing, running into a naked crossbowman with a shield up results in him killing me through my shield.

Its working fine at the moment. If a shielder touches me I stagger, if they lower their shield too soon they get shot.

All I can say is that it just happened to me today...held block whole time and the crossbowman just waited till I got close and shot through it.

Depending on the crossbow and what kind of shield you have the bolts can penetrate right through. Working as intended.

[Mordred1622]

6 shield points with a undamaged elite cav shield. Still happened.
P.S. I never heard the bolt hit the shield. The end of the crossbow was past my shield.

I understand this and support it...my problem is that the crossbow bypassed penetrating my shield altogether by moving the crossbow past the shield mesh.

Might be a lag issue or you simply turning your shield at the last second. Either way, bump has been working and it's really silly for you to necro this thread because of one instance.

Necromancy is never silly, you should know this Jesus.

Just reread this and noticed we havent done any testing yet. I dont know whether people still consider this a problem because I havent seen any complaints about it lately but if you are still interested Joker, I am still available to keep my word 
Ill be home late today though.
