Archrs must be nerfed.
There' s too many of them, and it's pure hell for infantry, especially for 2h.
Best pierce damage of 2h = 25, when best bow + best arrows = 35.
How it can be?Great, strong, mighty strike of 2h, have less damage then bloody bow.
Archers too cool now, I dieing in Transitional Armourl by 3 arrows, with 5 IF. W H Y?
Less arrrows, less damage, less speed.

Get a fucking shield, Archers where underpowered compared to the mass of xbow/throwers before. Nevermind the fact that the only bow that does pierce damage is the Longbow, and it does 24p, as opposed to the Warbow's 28c, and the Longbow is a pain to draw and is inaccurate without mucho WPF, archers needed the buff because they where doing too little damage compared to before, and where constantly being outgunned by xbows and the occasional thrower. Nevermind the fact that an archer either has to choose between an extra quiver of arrows or a melee weapon that he can block with now.
Stop bitching. For once, it's not the archers.
Remove Throwing Lances, that's all I really want in regards to throwing, and of course, fixing the cav issues, because they got nerfed hard with no reason. The only thing that needed the nerfing pre-patch was xbow and throwing, due to the massive amount of xbow/throwing hybrids with 1h/Shield or 2h, and the slot limit fixed that for the most part. But that's all IMO.
@Gisbert: You can equip Daggers with 0 slots. So you can take two sets of arrows and a long-dagger to use in melee combat, I'm an archer, I used it, I killed a few people after the NA-100 opened, it's a nice and fast weapon when you put a few points into Power Strike, but you can't block with it. I find it kinda sad, 'coz I used my heirloomed Longsword in Melee before, but this makes enough sense.
Wish the Longsword was a 1-slot item, though. Always struck me as a 1-slot item, sorta like the Fighting Axe, a 1-slot 1 1/2 hander not unlike the Longsword. Oh well.
