Umm... maybe I should disclaim, this is not a troll post, nor an attack on you.

Have you tried the arrow + kiting option with normal people? How large is very large, and how experienced is semi super?

Having the jump is always a big plus, but do you mean leading an un-prepared super into a well prepared trap? Or just that the large group has to be prepared for the fight?

Arrows are useless, with full armor you deal 4 damage per hit with rangers bow and bone arrows so you'd need 100 hits to kill most of the top tier, 150 in some cases.
Semi super is 150-250 skill with average strength.
Having the jump as in you attack them where you want when you're all prepared to fight (Away from mines and houses)

So with a group of 5 people the battle would need to go for 25-38 volleys assuming a close to 100% hit rate and assuming one person won't be able to fire each volley because they're running from the super.

With 10 people it's 10-15 volleys.

What is the hit rate on arrows like for someone with say, 50 marksmanship skill, what about 150? That'll make it take more volleys.

I would think of 7-13 players as being large, I'd think of 14-20 players being very large. 4-6 players would be a medium sized group, 2/3 being small, and 1 being solo.

I reckon with the jump, a group of 6 non semi super's could take down a super. A group of 13 could probably do it a lot quicker, and a group of 20 could almost take one down without the jump.
Either way, the group would be able to defend against a super in most circumstances if they were armed at the time.

I am highly offended by the lack of Facepunch Outpost on the village list. Nonetheless I did that in "otherwise".

I just dearly hope for a full reset.
