0.3.1.0

No, because arrows still way like 20kg for two quivers. Kiting still impossible.

First thing I tried after the patch was 6/36 archer with nomad bow and you can infact kite with it, though the damage is pitiful. Devs still havent figured out that the quiver weight nerf is still mostly putting the people in a disadvantage who dont have enough points to get enough ath i.e. hybrids, which however are willing and meant to fight in melee and could desperately use the footwork.

and if i go for pure archer build instead of my old hybrid build
i will be able to kite more with my 9ath

^ this exactly

I had little hopes left that maybe with this patch this gets adressed.

IMO the rational decision would be to prevent kiting by nerfing mobility when performing ranged related stuff instead of a global slow down. It is like dropping a JDAM on a crowded housing complex because you know that somewhere in there a terrorist is hiding. Just plain poor game design.

i guess i should go for an op retarded op hoplite build like this one
15/27 :
One Handed:171
Polearm:143


crpg was already like 80 % agibuild and 20 % str
i cant believe devs play that mod to think agi had to be buffed

just look at the tons of agi shielder we had before patch ...
imo put shield requierment to str and not agi to stop this tons of gay shield builds... but that's an other subject...

Hey nightmare,
This post is a song, and it is about you.

Until now I thought
I am the biggest crybaby in the world.
But know I know
You are.

And that means quite something.
Oh yeah~~~

It first I QQ'ed
Because Espada was nerfed
So was Short Arming Sword
And Scottish.

But wpf got buffed so I smirk
Oh yeah~~~

I don't like the way
Your face looks buddy.
Don't take patches personal
They are just a game.

Remember to love the devs
Oh yeah~~~

Always keep in mind
every -1 is -1 love.
We still love you bro,
Take it easy and drink.

In Soviet Russia, Vodka Drinks You.
Oh yeah~~~

Dear community, please do not hate me.
I am drunk cuz I finshed huge research project.

Join PRAVDA,
Rico.

the money got for the melee gaming project should be used
to pay at the devs an entry to a game design school !!!

[Mateoo]

I'm just sad that I will get out-spammed even more so as a STR guy...

I would love to see a polearm buff though, all polearms really have going for them are range stabs.

Are you serious? Polearms have got just everything you need. Damage, range and speed. I am going to be a polearm fighter after I get bored with my shielder.

[Life]

what is this synergy bonus? if i am 1h, is it good to have my 1h wpf "green"? if so i will have to put about 70 into 2h, which doesnt make sense

[Osiris]

play with your stf


you get wpf in other melee areas when you put some in one.

you can play around with the figures but it makes hybrid pretty good at higher wpm levels

[Visconti]

kind of feel like all were gonna see are agi longswords and lawl pikes with like 190-200 wpf..... as if they werent bad enough before the patch

Hmmm, for me debatable. I'd usually consider 5PD minimum for archer (Horn bow), and 6PD standard.
Horse archer, different story.

Although this build looks tempting given I usually use Bow:

Level 30

Strength: 12
Agility: 24

Archery:184

Weapon Master: 8
Athletics: 8
Riding: 0
Iron Flesh: 4
Shield: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Strike: 4
Power Draw: 4
Power Throw: 0

Currently strat army standard is horn bow (PD5) and Rus/Long Bows (PD6) so both yours and my build above wouldn't currently be viable for Strat.

Edit to add: Also more agi builds = less ability to kite, because more people will be able to keep up.

Where is the renown ladder?  I want to rub my 60 million on peoples faces.

Where is this renown ladder located?

What is this for?

http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=ladderhero

Same location on c-rpg.net as the dueling ladder.
There is also a renown meter on your character info page (under dueling, to the left of strat reliability and performace.)
