I havn't played yet but i think they over buffed, only cause everything is now 1 slot!

That was the problem to start with, It made throwing hybrids too easy.

U had a good thing going with the 2 slots system all they need was a bit more acc and a tad more ammo.

well in a week well see what has happen....

I was hoping for a 2 slot system too. The amount of ammo is fine, but the flexibility behind it isn't =/

Um the NA siege server is pretty much 90% throw/shield spec now.  :lol:

all the throwers who had their builds destroyed by the rage-nerf last patch are back.


...plus throwing hammers are FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!
So with PT >10 stones become simple too effective
:lol:

Yes yes they are, I'm glad throwers are back. Although agree with the opinions about the slot changes being un-needed for players to consider those weapons useful. I am new to crpg but was always a happy thrower in native.

I think throwing is in a nice spot right now. People are using throwing to test out the new items and the way it was changed.

Yeah don't get worked up. Throwing got a mysterious buff without any details about the changes, and a new weapon so of course everyones jumping on it. People trying to figure out what changed, and New Toy Syndrome. I don't think the wpf thing got touched but there are some great changes to everything else and I'm very content with the patch. I'm glad there were devs in here taking my suggestions seriously. In particular, heirlooming throwing weapons is worthwhile again!

I've been playing on an alt for a week or so now with a different build and I'm about 10x more deadly. Now that I have a reasonable amount of ammo I'll actually be able to compete.

Funny coming from a member of the clan that promoted and laughed at deleting my characters (and Goretooth's, and other players better than you all).  I stick around the forums because I like some of the people here and want to see how much warband is being destroyed by fucktards (read:  goons) and CS players (read:  range spam)

I moved on to a proper FPS since we're all just playing ranged spam anyways.  Might as well go 100% and get back to nades and guns so everyone is on the same page since rather than watch the only FPMelee game available get ravaged and raped by ranged fuckwits.

Very funny indeed. Enjoy your FPS friend!
I'll throw even when the weapons are gone. I can always throw punches and throw up.

Meh, I used to give a damn about acting somewhat respectful until the goons started fucking the community up beyond simply trololo'ing.  Mass banning people via abusing access to the admin panel, then mass deleting the characters/accounts of players was pretty much the last straw.  So fuck it, and fuck them.

What the hell happened to throwing in the hotfix? After patching it seems like throwing damage has been savagely reduced. People I'd normally be able to kill with PT 6 and three skilled throws are now taking 6-8. Someone who said they were around level 24 threw on some plate armor and was walking around with three heirloomed throwing spears stuck in them. I had the roughest night of cRPG of my life. My K:D went from being top of the scoreboard or near to dead bottom because I couldn't finish anyone off. The ammo increase is useless because it now seems to take more then twice as much to kill people. What happened. Was it that gravity calculation that was effecting arrows that was reduced?

(click to show/hide)

/\ Got someone to grab a screen cap of this. /\ 8 throwing axes stuck in this black plated gentleman. 5 in the front, 3 in the junk. I didn't miss once. They proceeded to take a 9th and then kill me in one hit as I tried to run away. Later in the same round, my throwing axe lodged into an unarmored archers head. There was no question that it should have been a headshot, it just didn't kill them. They couldn't see what they were shooting anymore because of the axe handle sticking down in front of their face. Was there some kind of unmentioned nerf to throwing in the hotfix to deal with the flood of people trying out it's new toy? Or did damage get borked accidentally as a side effect of damage calculation changes?

Meh, I used to give a damn about acting somewhat respectful until the goons started fucking the community up beyond simply trololo'ing.  Mass banning people via abusing access to the admin panel, then mass deleting the characters/accounts of players was pretty much the last straw.  So fuck it, and fuck them.

See guys? Gorath wasn't an obnoxious idiot before that business two or three weeks ago, not at all. Before that he was always the paragon of a perfect gentlemen. IT WAS SUCH A RADICAL CHANGE I WAS SHOCKED! He went from kissing ladies hands, and helping the elderly cross the street to disrespecting authority and having an attitude. GOD DAMN GOONS FOR MAKING HIM LIKE THIS! God damn them to hell what have they doonnneeee!

edit: It's kinda funny actually. One LLJK member goes rogue and "hacks" un-passworded accounts, then gets banned, and people like Gorath shout about how the entire clan is hackers and criminals. Meanwhile chadz officially said that an actual entire clan took part in account hackings, the whole clan, and no one remembers what they were called or has even mentioned them.
