So! Bows are nerfed too?

[IRunUDie]

[Strudog]

Once again bows were buffed especially the non loomed ones, a couple of patches ago, bows are fine and they deserved that buff, i believe range in in a perfectly place right now

Bows are buffed, and stop underestimating the accuracy stat.

it takes 5 arrows with 10 pd and masterwork bodkin arrows to kill a tank. Nerfed bows so u cant jump and aim

I'm finding it easy to kill tanks with 3-4 arrows 6 pd, and Sharp Bodkins.

Also their is a difference between draw speed of +2 and +3 Bows. I was in an archer fight of sorts and the person was outdrawing me by a half a second to a second. He had a masterwork longbow,and I only had  a +2 longbow.

Realistically I don't think archers were like "Oh shit, a 2h plate crutching mauler! Time to kite" and then as they were running jump and fire their bow, and magically get an instant headshot. But this is cRPG so fuck realism.

Well, My bow 2nd rank was 50 speed, now its masterwork and guess what 50 speed - upgrading from 2nd rank to 3rd rank gives you no bonus! why the fuck is it even possibly to heirloom your bow to 3rd rank if it dont do anything? atleasst add 1 point for dmg or somthing.
i just sold my MW nodachi to MW this bow now i want to quit the game i feel cheated by chadz the evil

Here's a tip.. Before looming anything go to the shop, select your item and click on ranks. Hover your mouse over each stat and it will show you it's value (so when it says +2 on nomad bow it comes up as 50).

If you had done this you would have seen that looming to rank +3 only increase accuracy by +1

I know people hate archers, But why have they been nerfed soo much!

Archery is nurfed compared to native, but it's worth reading through previous patches.

In a recent patch unloomed bows/arrows got buffed. The affect of looming got nurfed. So all archers with loomed bows and arrows got a bit screwed over as someone with a no loomed bow and arrows can deal a similar amount of damage at a similar rate.

This made archery more noob friendly making the difference between a great archer and a shit archer pure skill rather than loom level.


Have a read through the changes in these -

As you have loomed your bow after the patches, I think it's a bit late to be complaining you've been "cheated by chadz the evil" 

[IRunUDie]

Meh, I've only been back 3 months, I used to play 2 years ago at the start of CRPG, Those wear fun days. I know about checking the stats of heirloomed ranks in the shops but I dont see how 1 accuracy is really fair on a +3 bow as to apposed to my +3 Nodachi with +3 cut +2 speed +2 something else.

[IRunUDie]

I don´t see how it is fair that archers can shoot me from 50 metres away and kill me with 2-4 arrows without a chance for me to do anything against it

"If you get hit"

[dreadnok]

The ranged is out of hand now. Headshotted at the beginning of the round on a hill with an archer at his spawn and on lower ground is fucking goofy. Then you get the Arb  going thru a masterpiece board shield from a mile away.

[Sharpe]

I mean I'm an archer, and I know something is wrong when I can peekabo on a ladder in siege, and get multiple headshots. Or when my Longbow is drawing faster then a Tatar bow.

[Sagar]

Last days headshots are very common. Maybe hotboxes are changed.
Not only for archery and xbows, also throwers get easy headshots too.

[Riddaren]

I see everyone - on my post, but really. I remember how bows used to be 2 years ago! And now you say they r  buffed! what the fuck, Look at lanced cavarly going around getting scores of 20-2 because they are so OP, bows are shit now.. Bonus for heirlooming bow is terrible compared to all other items, Nerfed bows so u cant jump and aim, nerfed bows damage in genreal, nerfed speed of loading bow, Archers may be easy to use but it still hard to judge the movement on a random target when they r trying to dodge as compared to cav who just run up behind u and poke you with their long sticks - kill you with one hit. but it takes 5 arrows with 10 pd and masterwork bodkin arrows to kill a tank.

Guess why I play lancer?
You don't need to do anything right. It takes no more skill than presseing W and left mouse button.
So if you want to roll X5 and top scoreboard each round, why not just switch to lancer? No one is stopping you.
