Special Attack for Archery

[Flocke]

special bow attack: 3 arrows in a row
aim your target and then shoot 3 arrows in a row (maybe with decreasing accuracy)

special sling attack: throw stones with your bare hands
the same as above

and finally: coup de grâce "blow of mercy"
if an animal run away and attempt to flee, this should be a very quick move to kill the animal at last

all these special attacks should be used only for hunting animals and not pvp!

why

[Seizure]

Archery is already OP, and your suggestion you make it 3x as OP?

Is being able to 1 hit a fucking lvl X bear not good enough? You want to be able to 1 hit every hearthling in existance now?

[niltrias]

Personally, I have to admit I kind of do. The problem is, im not so hot on the idea of anyone ELSE being able to.

I like the general idea of some special archery attacks, but not till its balanced and not like this. Maybe one that drops movement speed?

we don't talk about damage here, my max damage is near 200 so i can't kill a bear with one shot.
only a few people have the ability to kill everyone in this game, if with 1 hit or 2 or 3...
that's not important, they do that or not and if they can't, they grind LP for being able to do that and nobody can stop them.

why

my suggestion to shoot arrows in a row is because it's boring to wait until you can shoot 1 arrow and if you miss your target, you have to repeat.
all i want is to increase the possibility to hit your target!

once again, i don't want to deal more damage, all i want is to hit my target and i have enough arrows, that's not the problem.

and what about noobs, they don't have good marksmanship or decent equipment, but a bow is easier to get than a sword...

(hunting with a bow is actually boring like fishing, it needs to go faster to my mind)

this. I tried to kill a deer today.
Aiming at it at a distance of ~0.5m greatly increased my chance of killing it, because it may have died of old age before my char is finally ready to shoot at it.
Seriously, combat needs to change at low levels. It makes me feel like roleplaying a borderline-retard who got lost in the woods.

I would go the other way around: Fast Aim->accuracy increases, damage decreases.
That way newbies wouldn't yawn while trying to kill an animal, and for pvp, less damage, against good armor and agility shouldn't be very useful.
