Balancing classes doesn't work that well because, if it tries to balance teams with even amount of good skilled and bad skilled players whilst also doing banners, If it accounted in classes, the other two would'nt really work properly. Unfortunately.

i've even started playing HA again recently in hope that people complain so it gets nerfed, the power in it is that it is almost completely risk free, yet yields as much score as playing other classes, if not even more.
which with other classes you will die much earlier on in the rounds because people can actually attack you.

Suure thats why you're playing it

Well I always loved HA as a class, but nowadays it's hated because it has become a silly class which needs either a damage nerf or i think a massive accuary nerf, Because when i play my 18/21 i can have pinpoint accuarcy riding at full speed like 75% of the time, I mean if you use Jackies build: 15/30 it's pinpoint 100% of the time at any speed, but thats lvl 34 only.

It should be impossible to shoot that fast and that accurate :P

Rather play a class i like but with some amount of respect

Whatever you say, cool guy. You sure got me there. Nice grammar, by the way.

Nice response dildo guy, like a 40 year old man gives a fuck about grammar on a video game board website forum. If you took your time carefully write your response your a bigger cunt than i thought

Teeth I know you there are horse archers in EU 1 who are very good and are mostly on the top of the score board.
In my opinion this means, that it is possible that you succeed as horse archer and I think it should be possible to score nice no matter what class you play if you are a good player. Mostly, the top scorers are melees, not horse archers, but nobody becomes exasperated with it.
Personally, for me both 2h and polearm are easy valour mode and I'm bored of it because it is too easy so i play non mainstream classes for quite a long time.
That doesn't mean I want to get them nerfed, not at all, but I think classes are quite balanced at the moment and I definitely don't think horse archery needs a nerf.

I just close-up HS'ed an Arab horse in full charge with a rus bow/bodkins, 6 PD. It took another arrow to body from someone else and then slash and it died.

That post made no sense because your punctuation and grammar are still awful and your insults pathetic. For being 40 you sure get salty like a 15 year old too. And shhh now, there are comments actually worth reading in this thread.
You didn't read the fine print on the description of the HA skill. By using ranged on horse you willingly give up your right to empathy, for good reason.
I'm gone for a few months due to work and classes, hoping the mod isn't dead when I come back. Take care, all of you.

This is simply a question of what type of game the devs want to make.

If they were making one that was fun for me then they would always have the following statements in mind
 - I want a skill based game with a strong tactical element that means being able to think is as important as being able to fight.
 - I want real consequences for mistakes (i.e. death) but without having to ever wait more than a minute or 2 to respawn.

The first of these statements means that HAs need to stay in the game as without them we lose a tactical element to the game.  Nerfing them into the ground so they are useless is just as bad.

The second statement meanwhile means that kiting at the end of rounds needs to be abolished and the only way to do this is to either limit ammo so it runs out faster, or to just lock all ranged weapons once the flags are up.  The first is probably easier but may mean a buff is needed to ranged.  The second is probably harder to code but means no re-balance is needed imo.

Now the question is just whether the devs idea of fun is the same as mine and if it is which option do they want to implement.

The third option is to just permaban anyone who's good at it.  I mean, not trying hard enough is bannable so let's also make trying too hard bannable.  The is something comforting in mediocrity.

That's cause Nebun has a 24/24 build :P :P too stronk, something needs to be done to high level archery, it's twice as good as lvl 30 archery.
