Everything, besides melee is massive OP on the battlefield when its many. Massive ammounts of archers, cbows, cav.....etc
I am sorry if i didnt make my point clear. I merely wanted to say ,  that there where times when pure trowing was very, very strong in cRPG a while ago. Ofc your argument is valid, that mass usage of one class makes it strong implicitely. But, there has to be a motivation for it to become used by many players at the same time , which is usually that it is strong.  :wink:

Joker makes a very good point. Jump throwing re-added after the next server restart (tonight, if I don't forget).
Guess I'm taking 3 PT instead of 3 PD on my char at 31 :)
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

He is trying to troll me, as I said I am rather against jump throwing. But as I actually don't really care...  :P

You didn't read my second paragraph, did you?

That is totally not what I wrote in my post!

I just didn't consider jumping a vital part of the thrower gameplay. If it poses a nerf for the class, buff it somewhere else. I understand why it has been taken out, but, as I said, I actually don't mind, because there is enough other stuff annoying me as well. So if you absolutely, positively need jumping (which I still don't believe, it was just a nice option, and now you have to change gameplay, like many other classes had to in the past) you can have it back. Just accept that I think it looks retarded if someone suddenly jumps up behind an enemy in front of me and hurls an axe into my face. It's like "WTF?".


i did read your sec. paragraph. just took the first one cus thats a often used point in that discussion. sorry if you feel misunderstood :). i love you for making cmp notice. youll have my eternal +1 bonus on the forums and a no-axetoface-pact ingame as a reward. hail joker!

Throwing never was and never will be superior to anything even with jumping back.

We're talking about throwing...

I think throwing is still massively OP if you use it right.

1. Throwing is the only ranged class that can feint
2. Throws can be held like xbows
3. Throws "reload" faster than the fastest bow
4. Throws cannot be blocked
5. Throwing weapons, depending on the weapon, can be used as melee weapons in a pinch.
6. Throwing weapons do stupid massive damage

Throwing is simply amazing. And it goes well w/ most hybrid builds.

The only real advantages throwing got is the very short time to get a throw ready (not the actual fire rate because honestly if you are throwing in quick succession you are not aiming), the ability to use throwing weapons with a shield and the melee mode. Some throwing weapons have very good melee modes, like the throwing lances. The principal drawback is the very low ammo.

Removing jumpthrowing doesnt make crpg more balanced or less, it's just a remove of fun. Im glad there are many ppl who voted for jumpthrowing, I hope this will cause consequences.  :)
