As for 1slot bows: allow only one ammo per ranged... solves problem with kite archies, xbows cav, cav archer, throwers but too harsh for them so buff acuracy 

Decreasing amount of missels is not a solution, and archers are accurate enougth. IMO ranged are not letting horse bundle of stickss to feel untouchable, and total gods of battlefield.

Just wonder what could happen if range will have less amount of missels: some of them will stop shooting horses. Less archers schooting horses - that will make more horses appear on battlefied. More horses - cav rape on battle servers.

Buffing accuracy I meant for throwers only and nobody else.
As for cavraping without ranged: If I wasn't in constant zigzag mode I will have much more time for looking after cav. And many ranged even don't target cavs.

that's true, but a single archer like me is able to kill 6 or more horses or riders in one round

I'm a 2slot xbow my old friend and love shooting at horses. Its just so sweet when you are able to drop a horse while the cav guy is riding in your teammates and cut him open while he is prone.... ahhhhh yeah thats good...

So you actively help enemy to win cause from this situation most taemkills arises

What about making all bows one slot, allowing only one quiver per archer (maybe increasing the number of arrows ? idk ) and making all weapons that are currently sheathed on the back unsheatable ?

Big quivers were 24 so yes. But I don't think that rusbowers and longbowers need free space for twohander. Still they can have 1slot 1h + 0slot buckler. As for xbows around 15 bolts is enough.
About sheath: many polarmers will be angry not to mention 2h swordmen. Hmm.. but my 2hander has a nice sheath 

[Templar_Steevee]

IMO rus and longbow users should be able to use 1h weapons to be able to defend themselves from weak agi players.
For them getting a 2slot hi dmg weapons will kill their upkeep.

Someone is abusing kafein's account.

It's an awful idea. They made the most powerful bows two slots for a reason.

Imagine a 18/21 archer build as follows:
6PD
6PS
7ATH
7WM

~145 bow wpf
~100 2h wpf.

Rus/Longbow + longsword [German/SoW/Great sword/etc.] + arrows ofc.

An archer shouldn't have the same melee capabilities as a dedicated 2h/pole-arm user.

that is y theyre archers... but you expect them to melee when theyre not built for melee. its like making 2h/pole put points into archery so they can carry a bow or pick 1 up. and btw a stack of bodkins weighs about the same as a great maul, so i think added dmg or knock down should substitute that weight gain just fine.
