Bows Back to Normal?

Y/N?

Especially since the hunting bow is as good as the war bow in every way and more now.

I say no... a lot of the bows that were absolutely pathetic now are a reasonable choice for archers. Instead of it going from crappy bows to good bows, now every bow is good in it's own way, allowing the archer to play how he/she wants. I like this change and I'm not even an archer.

Well what about no damage buff (by heirlooming) and just relatively useless point of looming bows? And the hunting bow is exactly the same as the war bow except better and less PD required.

It's a typo it actually is 28 not 30. Also stop calling the rus bow the war bow no one cares if you've been around when it was in!

Any good archer that cares about accuracy will demand looms. A few points make quite a bit of difference.

Now the heirlooming bonuses for ranged weapons are more in line with melee weapons, and ammo heirlooming doesn't give a damage bonus anymore, so bows and xbows cannot be heirloomed to "+6" like before.

Although it does make it more accessible, which to some is a complaint.

Make me. It's warbow and they changed it's name. I'll call it how it comes to me so I don't care what you have to say! #olderplayerthanu

Well I don't like some noob basically having a bow and arrows that's just as good as my +3 bow and arrows basically. Especially as a horse archer, the little tiny bit of extra accuracy doesn't help.

And why would the long bow shoot a missile slower than the war bow and all the smaller bows faster than a warbow?

yes because actual noobs who are still getting used to the game deserve to fight with an extra handicap so they get killed by you

Because physics and ammo weight simulation.

Wouldn't the bigger bows AKA the ones that require more POWER DRAW shoot an arrow faster? I don't get it.

If this isn't sarcasm then +1. If not, then:
Every noob deserves to go through what we all went through. People who have played long enough deserve to have the extra help of an actually helpful heirloom that they either payed a lot for or grinded for.

THIS NEW BOW RUINED MY GAME PLAY STYLE. I CAN NO LONGER DRAW FAST ENOUGH IN MELEE TO STUN LOCK AN ENEMY. WHY MUST YOU ALWAYS FUCK WITH ARCHERY MECHANICS AND COMPLETLY RUIN THE WAY I LIKE TO PLAY THE GAME.

MW  BOW HAS SAME DAMAGE AND ACCURACY AS A NORMAL ONE? ONLY DIFFERENCE IS 2 MISSILE SPEED. WOOHOO WTF DID I GRIND FOR? FFS.

Regard this post as spam, I have quit archery. Good day.
