Thanks for reversing the archery ath nerf!

[Everkistus]

Thanks devs, I can play again!

This arrow weight increase is a much better fix against kiting archers than fucking up our builds.

[Mlekce]

arrows now have weight of 7-10 kg.

[Fips]

arrows now have weight of 7-10 kg.

[17:13] <Kulin_ban> 20 arrows total out at 8kg, that means each arrow is 2.5kg heavy... something along the lines of 57mm anti tank gun projectile
[17:14] <Kulin_ban> i hope the damage is apropriate

[Tennenoth]

arrows now have weight of 7-10 kg.

Perfectly reasonable for not buggering up peoples builds I would say.

Yes indeed, thanks guys for understanding our point of view! Appreciated.

Man those bodkins are heavy, one arrow weighting almost half a kilo.

[Pejlaen]

So atm I am running around with 0 athletics and a total weight of 14kg on my arrows?

I'd say you fixed the kiting problem

[Mae.]

looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

[Plavor]

You've also increased the weight of crossbows and bolts, that's ok.


I noticed that the missile speed got nerfed (-2 missile speed).

Did you change anything else with the crossbows?

[Froto_the_Loc]

*sigh* Ok so does athletics still decrease wpf?
Or is it back to normal with outrageously heavy arrows?

Cause I had this nice hybrid build thought up.

[TurmoilTom]

So did we revert back entirely to the old system where the best archery build is 18/21+ or are strength archers still viable?

[Moncho]

awww yeah now my beloved hybrid build has more weight from items than from armor!
Military cleaver + knightly kite shield + horn bow + bodkins = 2.5+6+2.5+7=18!
Whereas my armor is 10.3+0+0+0.8=11.1

wrong math?

[Strider]

Same thing was done for bolts. I no longer want to be a crossbowmen anymore.
Worst part is I have a +3 arbalest and nobody who will want it.

Do few additional kilos make you unhappy? + 2-3kg is nothing for dedicated xbowman.

[Strider]

I like the idea, but 10 weight for arrows is a little too extreme. It should be more like 8 weight.
