Suggestion: Don't nerf throwing any more.

It's fairly simple, why is throwing a bad thing? why are throwing lances OP when they cant do crap to someone with 60+ torso armor? so why remove them?

The ammo amounts for throwing weapons is already so low, that unless you make a throwing spam character you will need to be up close, well within rush range of the enemy to use them, and they often cant even break down shields, and you wouldn't waste time trying.

The throwing lance will one hit weaker characters, but honestly so would a good arrow or crossbow bolt. so that point is also false.

And if anything, we should have more types of throwing weapons, heavy rocks you could throw, since in a siege the defenders would throw anything they could at the enemy, even chuncks of the castle that got knocked off..

In 38 body armor lamellar and leather gloves I survived a throwing lance, darkkarma or any good arbalestier would have 1 hit me.

My point exactly.

Throwing is already next to useless, and yet they want to make 2handed spam and crossbows the only good weapons in siege, have horsemen rule battle servers.

To be honest, if we're going to have anything from 1000 to 1500 AD, we need hand cannons to counter later era armor even if they have long reload and low ammo.

Adding one side of things but forgetting everything else in favor of the "cool guys gear" is just wrong.

Trowing got nerfed Because:
- 1 shots
- shield ability
- run away (being light)
- plenty of ammo
