I went throwing for about 3 mil xp worth of it, just to see if it was as useless as people were saying it was. Before I even started the build I expected to retire early. I used 105 wpf in throwing and 4 PT while maining a Two-Hander, the way I think throwing should be used. I was able to use it rather effectively, and had I used a hammer instead, at higher PT I could have been more deadly with throwing. War Darts with this wpf are every bit as accurate as archery is in close to medium range. I could stop moving, throw and hit an enemy archer with pretty good consistency from about 40 feet away. It's a pretty big advantage if you hit a Two-Hander/Polearm user before your melee fight.
plate wearers dominate right now with no hope of stopping most of them. Throwers at least made them hesitate a few seconds before lobbing off the heads of half a team. Now nothing can stop them since they can all seem to run crazy fast and swing like lightening. This mod has become "watch a single guy in plate murder dozens of people every round", since every other playstyle keeps getting nerfed into the ground.
Except that the longbow has been buffed twice now. Before .223 the longbow was already doing a lot of damage to plate, now it does even more. Throwing might have gotten nerfed, but the Longbow has essentially replaced throwing as a plate predator.
I'm not saying throwing is in a perfect position right now, I really don't think it is. But the amount of whining I have seen, doesn't seem justifiable.
