..., archery is fine (best archer on eu - Bagge have K/D 3.2:1, it's not amazing) And we should remember that he and also I are hi lvls with tons of experience.
Level:36
Experience:578,972,472

That in comparison to bagge, could tell me ... i suck
or
your argument does
or
both
---------------------------------------------
While trying to change the framwork of the arguments away from archery, is understandable from your point of view, it but doesnt magicly reduce the number count of ranged players, which is undeniably very often very high. Having 60% of ranged(on foot or on horse, bow , xbow, throwing ... siege the balistas *sigh*) is not an experience i alone but many have witnessed and made for themselves.
If then so nice topics in the forum arrive where it is pointed out that many ranged players would use modifications to make the game easier for them, then there is soon a point reached where i stop arguing altogether. If the only causes of action available is either to join them or to quit the game, well then fuck the game!
Also, while i see that occationally getting shot, being angry and ragy about it, seing that as a benefit to get action and excitment into the game. Getting shot all the time, not being able to be on the flank without being sorrounded by a bunch of fucking HA/HX, well flanking is no option atm, the way and purpose i constructed my character for, is mostly gone in my eyes. Thats why i am on fucking siege for nearly 2 years now, this is not just happening lately, and thats maybe why you cant see it happening clearly. This process is going on for a long while, it just happened to reach a point many others cant stand it anymore aswell.
I
try not to fall to any illusions, even if a heavy nerf would discourage a few ranged players, there will be still more then enough ^^ and most likely also very effective still. So i basicly have to live with becoming a siege player and from what i can say, that is because of too much ranged. It was back then 2 years ago when i started avoiding eu1 and it is now the case why i wont be on eu1 longer then 30 min normally without getting really pissed at this shity CS clone.
So Steve, i am glad you and others maybe having the time of their life in this game, but others dont anymore, because of ranged. Is that now your fault? Nope, not at all, it got out of hand a long time ago and warnings back then havent been heared.
EDIT: pfff using siege as substitute for battle, because of ranged, pffff the irony pfffff the cynicism
