And the throwing lqnce buff killed it off.

Throwing lance was that one weapon that actually had a build that was more or less solely for that weapon.

Look what you did to it, you turned into a generic spamming device.

Get a shield  :P

People will keep going ranged as long as they are rock to melee's scissors (especially since they are scissors too), and as long as there is no real paper in the game (or in our case we have dynamite which would rather kill melee so they don't get shot :D)

Either melee gets some rock too (more of a ranged fest) or rock is just harder to play by limiting them in some fashion. Like less ammo, slower projectiles, nerf high level, less melee ability etc. Thing is with 2 roles you can soften people up or kill them before melee takes place. Xbows are just broken how they're put in the game, and archers aren't much better. HA are obviously the worst with few adequate counters
If you have ranged troubles use this:

Adding a cap is a shit way to deal with ranged, it needs some kind of nerf, or more people just need to get shields.

You are more then right Grumbs, but will you still find this funny when the mod loses all of its players...?

The thing is, people leave because of pewpew, in turn the balans then shifts even more towards ranged players, thus it will only get worse.

Aww, I thought this was about a new head wear for archers, something like this:

For all the non-believers, look no further than this thread for proof that while strat battles are won/lost in NA3/EU3, strat wars are won and lost on the forums.

Being ranged is a shit way to play this game.

No way man, ranged is perfectly fine and fair, what they should really be doing is nerfing cav again.

Agreed. The way ranged works is not really that unique, it is seen in countless other games, but the melee system in this game is by far more unique.

I guess it's the player skill requirement that does it. If you're a shit player, and playing melee, you'll get fucking slaughtered wherever you go.
If you grab a bow/crossbow, you can feel like you're being useful by playing the point&click side of this game. Everyone will still murder you, but now you can try to avoid it by hiding and staying away from them :rolleyes:

Somehow (no idea how, it is point&click after all) playing ranged should require some skill from the player's end too.

Lower the missile speed.

Buf..  bring back heavy cav, to deal with the ranged. Nerf horse ranged that makes playing cav pretty close to impossible. Give us maps with less roofs and other protection from cav. It will balance itself out in the end.
