Secondary weapon mode: melee bow

[Adalwulf]

Honestly, Just make all bows 1 slot and allow archers to pick a 1 slot weapon so they can stand their ground. That's all. Fuck this bow as a melee weapon. All archers in combat had a decent melee weapon on them. ALL OF THEM.

True.

But if you do that, some of them will pick 3 quivers and I guarantee you noone likes it when its raining arrows

Even though the actual weight/upkeep by quiver is really high, so maybe it could be a good idea ? +1 for a live-test

Nice video, but my answer is no.

Not saying I want this, but if it was implemented I say they should be unable to block.

Why? Because then there would still be a reason to take an actual melee weapon with you.

[Templar_Steevee]

spd_rtng(92)|weapon_length(106)| swing_damage(16,blunt) for longbow (regular one), so loomed will have about 19 blunt dmg.

With good footwork and some WPF in melee I could be able to spam some players...

IMO silly idea, really unrealistic, and i probably don't have to tell you why 

no from me

Neat idea, but the stats are overpowered.  You basically made the rus and long bows more effective melee weapons then War Spears (minus the stab)

Also here is historical evidence of horse crossbows manually blocking couched lances, I demand this also be added immediately

I always + your posts because of your signature, I don't even read what you type.

I know, but these stats are only there as an example. This is the devs to adjust this if they implement.

[Berserkadin]

Totally okey, IF I get to mount a small xbow on my melee weapon so I can shot you archers before I reach you.

[darmaster]

Besides the fact that it`s not realistic,having a secondary mode in bows,means that archers can have one more quiver of arrows because they won`t need a sidearm, fuck that.

NO.

they still use a 0 slot weapon (rus and long bow users)

Long bow 16 blunt wtf? are you seriously? i think it bad idea

[Ronin]

It is a good idea if they were set as unable to block. An archer would still be carrying a 0 slot sidearm, but it can be nice for archers to be able to fight back when someone gets close to them unexpectedly and the archer does not have the time to switch weapons to fight back. It wouldn't effect balance much at all (very minor), but would bring a rather good element to the battlefield.

[MURDERTRON]

Add blocking with the bow, but no attacks, that's just stupid.  Also if you get crushed through, your bow breaks.

I think it's a bad idea to necro long dead threads
