Horse Xbow nerf.

If you've played on the servers lately, its full of people riding around on the fastest horses possible, wielding crossbows. Now, to be honest it is the most annoying thing ever to just be run over long enough for them to reload their crossbows, and shoot you while you're down.

Problem: Plague of Crossbow cavalry.

Solution: Make all crossbows unable to be reloaded on horse back.

Or, how about xbows can only reload from horse back  when they are at a full stop. That would make them much more vulnerable to ranged and other cav.

I don't see so much cav xbow. It's ok like that. Hunt xbow is weak, low range.

There's maybe a lot of horse crossbows on NA, but that is because:

NA doesn't have enough quality foot archers

Solution: clone bagge 5 times and ship over to the US. Enjoy the tears.

Ranged footman easily counter horse crossbows.  Trying sticking with people who can protect you against them.  Or build an archer and stop complaining.

Sorry that you can't 1 vs everything in a battle, welcome to 14th century warfare!

Sure it does, but we finally succumbed to the death by a thousand nerfs and the inability of others to understand the concept of protecting them and quit playing as one. The play by play.

i love all these threads.. becuase i know they are about me.. and how i know this is that i am the only one that can seem to bump shoot effectivly.. if it wasnt for hx id just kill you with something else and you would then bitch about  that needing a nerf.. get good and shoot down the arabian.. they are weak as hell... or you know you can just cry more and more and maybe you will get your way eventually

Keep your archers alive.

Horse xbows are horrible, but they're not without counters.

This is ridiculously, in fact so ridiculous that I bothered the time logging in and posting a comment.

Nerf HC? Are you serious? I mean serious as Sirius(Serious) Black, from Harry Potter?

Its you'r fault if you run around as a mainstream Kuyak Clone with a razorsharp butterknife the size of a door with a pike length.
Everyone needs a bane.

Those who deny shield usage will find Ranged annoying, and Mounted Ranged a nightmare.
Those who wield shields doesn't fear ranged cavalry THAT much.

Kuyak Clone: But hooow! Will we stop these Horse Crossbowmen!

Simple... Horse Crossbowmens bane is the Bowman or Crossbowman.

A horse crossbowman can't reload his xbow faster than the bowman can pick a arrow and fire it in his face or on the horse before its to late.

In my opinon is this topic a blasphemy. HC shouldnt be nerfed in any way, it is good as it is.
If anything should be nerfed it is definitely the mainstream Kuyak 2h

The Kuyak Clone's bane --- Horse Crossbowman, Horse Archer
The Horse Crossbowmans bane --- Bowman, Crossbowman, maybe even Horse Archer
