One solution would be to increase the game speed overall.
The game isn't fast. It's pretty damn slow.
However, with increased game speed, the individual skills will be affected much more by reaction time, obviously.
That is not only a good thing. Teamplaying will be harder and the usage of tactics overall would be less rewarding.
But personally I had lots of fun at the highest game speed on EU_1 last time I tried it, and that was as a lancer.
A more direct solution would be to decrease the arrow weight down to 1 instead of having it at 10.
Even though I have never been an archer with my main or played much with alts, that was truly somethign that made archery boring compared to before.
Examples of really bad "nerfs" that most of all just made the game less fun (atleast for that class):
- Foot archery: Increased Arrow weight
- Lancers: The heavily decreased lance angle
- Throwers: The removal of jump throwing
- HA: Heavily decreased accuracy at higher riding speeds - This totally killed the class imo and with it Tuonela (the best of them all)
A less accurate and slower game with fewer abilities can only result in less fun. Lower damage is also something that makes it less fun.
