The hate on ranged as a whole can be exaggerated at times, but the hate on HA is pretty often well-deserved. They usually end up being more accurate than foot archers, and you honestly cant kill them, with any class, unless you surprise them. As if that wasn't bad enough, they tend to degrade to being absolute dickbags fun-suckers when playing, regardless of how nice that particular person was beforehand. I don't mean that they resort to childish insults, but their playstyle is simply the worst. Even hoplites, the class you would expect to be the best counter for HA can get bullied by a single HA, and will lose any 1v1 scenario so long as the HA has half a brain. I could go on and on, but I'm sure I don't need to since 90% of the mod's population knows how shitty they are.
