Before this thread continues, would you happen to remember, if the guy who shot you, was named ARTIEstrongestmanINTHEWORLD  :?:lol:

If not i call this bs  :wink:
I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

Mendro can one-shot me with his jarids. 50 body armour and 24 strength. 0 IF though. I seem to get one-shot more by throwing weapons like jarids and HTA than I do by arbalest. Can't remember the last time I was one-shot by an arbalest, actually. :?

The low ammo they have balances the high damage and high rate of fire though, but I never approach Mendro without a shield anymore. :P
I voted Gurnisson cause of his fucking bendy pike, I swear noone can roflcopter stab like he can.

Throwing is balanced. No nerf needed.

Throwing gets a nice buff from speed.

If you're stupidly charging the thrower in a straight line, then you deserve that "heavy" damage.


Getting one-shotted by throwing spears while wearing 40+ defense armor is retarded

What is retarded here is the lack of information...
While wearing Armor helps surviving, the biggest factor is actually your health.
This armor :
Archon's Armor
weight: 11.1
body armor: 40
leg armor: 6
difficulty: 10


Can be worn with a 12 STR build. And no IF. Now if you get OS with such a build and armor, then it's... prefectly normal. You'd have been onehit by a lot of decent melee weapons too.


If i walk sideways, Mendro takes away 70% of my thrower health (21/21, no IF, 50 armor). I never jumped in front of him, and ran towars him, so i don't know about getting oneshot by a Mw Jarid.

Throwing is balanced though. Lack of ammo, dedicated wpf and skillpoints, low range, balances it out.
And luckily for throwers, i don't see them in all the LongRange stackers staying on a hill during the all map, pewpewing from far away, waiting for people to climb their hill. So no hate for throwers, they take risk to go as close as possible in melee.

The only part about throwing that needs to be nerfed is the melee mode of throwing lances.

Throwing's application already is limited compared to other ranged. They don't get nearly as much ammo, and that has to be compensated somehow. So they need that damage to even be remotely useful, unless they just want to stand back and tickle-stagger people who are engaged in melee.

Like what I've been trying to do with stones lately.
Nerf everything. Buff naked fist fights.

what the fuck is wrong with you guys? i gave him a worthwhile advice, either get shield against projectiles or eat shit and get pwned by ranged.

You're post made me realize how UP and hard archers are compared to throwers. All throwers are easymode scrubs who gets free kills.

Save poor Pollacaballo!
Nerf throwers, buff archers!

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.
