Probably i play more siege then half the ppl commenting on this thread. Yes, i visit duel sometimes but that doesnt mean i suck in battle. So basicaly most of the melee is QQing about ranged but when u ask why its quiet and all i hear is get a shield, stop being a fucking nerf 2hand, learn to play moron and not only duel, ... This means the 2hand class is forced to play with a schield (sounds even weird) or struggle mid board with 50% more deads then kills.
If you don't like 2h class as it is, play a different class. For instance you are free to make a shielder character. 2h is the class most susceptible class to ranged fire (actually, after cavalry class) by it's very nature, although that doesn't mean there aren't ways to deal with ranged fire. What I do mostly works:
1-Learn dodging, zigzagging and moving in a confusing way
2-Learn taking cover
3-Wear heavier armor, take more if
4-Or take more athletics to be better at dodging
To say the least:
5-You respawn after 5-30 seconds after you die. It's not a such big deal if you die in Siege at all.
If you suck at those, you are free to make a shielder, an archer, a crossbowman or whatever suits you and helps you to deal with archers.
