I haven't seen any 2h QQ threads, but I see them for pole and 1h. Time to give 2h the buff it deserves?

The current state of the game is surprisingly passable, however I think a few things still got to be did.

-Bring back jump shot for archers and xbow.
-If not, at least let jump cancel your draw animation.

-Tone down the speeds of longsword and HBS.

-Make pole right swing connect less quickly.

-Buff pole thrust, it only makes sense that polearms should have the dominant stab.

-Fix phantom overheads, often times overheads following a kick just phase through the target

-Make the roll animation less "hurried". There is nothing worse than watching a tincan fall to your knockdown only to zippy-zap 10ft to the side in a one second time frame.

-Make 2h animations less "ghost like". I always manage to swing through scenery / walls with my long 2h weapons. Pole always gets caught.

I'll find more things to whine about when I get home.

Half of those are actually either done already, or will probably be done soon. The other half, will likely never see the light of day.

To which half do you count jump shots?

why were jump shots removed in the first place? And please dont say for realism^^
they were bloody fun!

Get away with your stupid balance discussions you dogs, this is a HOLY TRUTH THREAD, not one of these crappy "Buff my class" threads. The only reason I think archery (more particularly - horse archery) needs a buff is because of the justice, and totally not because I might probably play this class on my main.

Horse Archery in no way needs a buff, its just as good as it has always been, you are able to top the scoreboards with good scores just like with any other class.

Archery is at a good place right now, no QQ = balanced.

All we need is a nerd to 1h cav ghost reach and damage and also 0 WPF great lances doing 100% damage

I think all ranged needs a serious buff damage and speedwise but old glance mechanic shall return. I don't understand those very little damages you get from shit weapons (Including shit ranged with shit builds) while you wear heavy armor. I mean wtf an arrow will deal damage if it pierces through, it won't if its stuck on armor.

We definetly need to buff armor glance and reduce damage soak ratios back to native perhaps. Armor is there to protect you from getting harm not to reduce the pain.

Buff armors and i'll completely agree on ranged buff.
I don't get mad when i get killed by skilled archers such as Tenne, Blackbow, Pollocabollo and such, what bugs me is STF characters,skilless archers who shoot with nomad bow + tatar arrow , deal no damage just annoy the fuck out of me while i try to fight 3v1 in melee.

Jump shot was ridiculous. Super strong for kiting archers and dodging cav and shooting them in the head. Jump shooting with xbows were accurate as fuck which sucked ass.

Cancel while jumping was great however.

This morning I got blackbarred by an arrow shot in my ass, but a javelin in my face only dropped my barely below half.
