TO THE DEVS TEAM !!

[pepejul]

Archers are necessary to improve organisation and cooperation between pikers, shielders and cavs.... just learn to play together and play for mates instead of playing for yourselves...

Kill the archer first, chase him while your 2H heroes mates are doing the job with ennemies... and win !

Archer is not OP when he's chased a whole round !

I agree with blackbow. Why people don't whine when on EU a 40% of the server is in a horse? I played archers many gens, and to be honest i'm tired of stupid nerfs. Every patch, one nerf. I don't understand why people rage about group of archers. If you get caught by four of five players on melee you are dead. The same situation vs five archers.

I totally disagree with "balance" dev team. Arbalest was being OP, a fast and superaccurate 100p medieval shotgun about a year, just because one developer was using it. Maybe with archery is the same with the difference no dev archer defend ranged role in crpg. And also every nerf was a total facepalm.

Turn nerf? 1h fucked.
Slot system? Kitting archers.
Increased upkeep? People raging about getting more damage of ranged.

And I hope no changes will come because now they are busy with other business.

All class are reason of QQ from other ones... that is because of PERFECT BALANCE BETWEEN CLASS !!!

Because you stand a chance of atleast damaging the 5 melee guys or if you're really lucky/skilled even win, against archers you don't they all spread out and shoot and if you do some how get close they run away. So no its not the same situation with archers.

Precisely and with the ammount of weight on bows and arrows they really arent going far once meleeguys have em on their sights.

[Blackbow]

Why force them all to hybrid? If they dont bloody want to melee, atleast let em compensate this with awesome shootingskillz. I know its pointless to bring realism into this, but still....archers didnt melee in battle. Throwers did and so did cav, but not archers. I like being a melee/archer hybrid, but I dont get why force some people's hand in this mod just cause couple QQ meleeguys cant catch them. And whose fault is it really if one team has only archers left and other has nobody with a build to counter archers alive.

good point bro

what about teamplay ? maybe if the inf disctract archers time for cavs to come backstab them ....

today i saw maybe 8 range in a closed field, my stupid no brain team instead of wait at cover and use brain, had the best idea to charge them
it was a carnage ...

i remember some old games like daoc ( dark age of camelot )
ppl was trying to organize some simple strategy to coordinate a charge for example
on crpg somethimes i try to lead my team but it's hard to find ppl who listen ...

Im a 2h user, though i dont use a GS much i would actually prefer to have the halfsword stab. It makes more sense and looks better.
Hell id even want the halfsword stab with my HBS, using a langes messer as 2h is really funny.
Right now i prefer weapons without stab at all  to reduce the whine

Archers should wear mail and a decent 1h, like the crossbowers can! 5ps and a 1slot weapon and medium armor would let them fight.

[Leshma]

dont worrie guys all archers will become hybrid 2hander so they will nerf 2hander i guess
and this day i will laugh so hard =p

and btw you will be so mad when archers will be able to kill inf in range and in melee =p

You're hybrid for years brah, half archer half coward

[BlueKnight]

Templar_Steevee has +3 hand axe which means he has 31 cut damage on that thing. It is a damage on normal knightly arming sword. It has also bonus against shield and over 100 speed. I know it's short but archers have at least 7 athletics and this makes them able to use short weapons. Anyway I wouldn't mind archers have some serious 1h weapons, why not?

hey joker ive always wondered if you even play, ive never seen your name. 

Next to the fact that I play on EU, and not NA, I use another nickname. The old one only provokes bad associations with a few people, and I enjoy the anonymity. Although I haven't played for several weeks now, as I was either busy (studies or work) or preferred other games (The Secret World, Guild Wars 2, Rage, Payday, ArmA2, Borderlands, etc.).

I hope this was meant as an off topic question just out of curiosity about my person, and not concerning the validity of my posts. Because the one has nothing to do with the other.

I saw some of them on battlefield already, also a +3 pickaxe, but still those weapons are way too short to kill some ppl.

[Ubereem]

that archery video is dumb because there is no power in those shots and only works within 10 foot range. nobody back in the old days used that fast firing technique in battle, maybe to hunt rabbits but that's about it.

[Rumblood]

Because you stand a chance of atleast damaging the 5 melee guys or if you're really lucky/skilled even win, against archers you don't they all spread out and shoot and if you do some how get close they run away. So no its not the same situation with archers.

You guys are so full of crap. Since I quit being an archer 2 generations ago, I solo 2 or 3 archers at a time with my new build. 4 or 5? That gets a bit too much for me, but 2 or 3 are dog meat. There are so many things you could do to counter them, but I see the same 3-4 people crying about archery and gang +'ing each others posts. It is much easier to complain on the forums, especially when you see the results in a nerf against archery every single patch, it just encourages you that much more to cry for even greater nerfs.

Grow some balls and learn to play the game by either building one of the many classes that can deal with archers, or learn to play as a team with one of the many classes that can deal with archers.
