Is archery bugged atm?

[Osiris]

and yet people still havent learnt to wait at least a day or two before rage quitting, rage trading or rage respeccing Like always if the devs think they have over done it they will change it either back or to a lesser extent

It's sort of bugged. ATH should reduce WPF, but now it also reduces PD (resulting in the "your proficiency is too low" message).

You guys should allow 2 or 3 athlectics for melee purposes.

i have 2 and im fine.

What a crappy nerf. Now archers will be forced to be slower than the nuclear powered tincans who rape them in melee. No reason to play as archer now, they're just a shitty melee class with a negligible ranged attack.

[Nebun]

this is just fucks everything up for high level archers, any free respec after ruining patch like this?

[Osiris]

shik and cmp said its slightly bugged/being tweaked so wait for update

Everyone goes on as if this wasn't posted...

i hope they nerf archery a bit more, they still have arrows and can shoot....

I am all for free respecs. The only problem are the Training lessons on which people spend millions of gold. They might think the've been taken for fools.

Archers are going to be more damaging now, since PD usually lowered effective wpf by ~30-40 or so on average, right?

I think even 18/24 archers wouldn't see much more of a decrease in wpf than before. I wish there were partial respecs at least for some stats, since full respecs are pretty powerful.

It reduced it by 14 points per level. That is 70 points with 5 PD, and 84 with 6, which meant basically you had about half your starting wpf...

If you won't give free respecs, maybe putting some more training lessons on the market would be a good compromise..

Its bugged because it also reduces PD, which i didn't even think about when entered server, i'm more concerned about WPF reduction which isn't bugged and if its stays like this my build is unplayable. Its like playing with 80wpf at the moment. If its stays like this we need a choice of free respec into another class or into different type of archer.
I don't share your joy in forcing ppl to retire his char all the time or respec and lose half of his exp. I really want to get to 35 one day and stay there. I don't like leveling, i just like playing with firends and strat battles.

Archers usually don't make any money. I've lost 50k last week playing archer. (Edited) Then i play my inf alt to make some money to compensate. I think most archers in same situation, unless they leaching. I can't afford paid training lesson with 150k i got at the moment. None of DRZ archers can, i know for sure.

PS: maybe just limit archers in Athletics, for example with 6pd u can have 4ath, with 5pd - 5ath, 4pd - 6ath... then fast archers won't deal much damage. And PD archers won't run away from anyone.
