I thought we were just fixing the "quick portrait shoot" problem.
My hunters are pretty much giving up on hunting with bows atm, everything outruns you, can't 1 shot a badger anymore etc etc
I doubled the quality of my bow and I'm hitting for half of what I did before the changes (with a fully green charged bow)
so? What is the point of even being an archer anymore? I can't see one, except being a weak form of dps compared to melee, and melee's hunt better now too.

so cry me a river, I hunt with my hands. never worry about 1 shots, always have water with you, learn how to sprint and hit.Ronin30 wrote:I thought we were just fixing the "quick portrait shoot" problem.

That's not the point, I'm aware melee does it better. What is the point of bows then?

just because you cant 1 shot everything with low perception / 10ql bow+arrows doesnt mean bows are instantly useless

It's fine as it is. Hasn't changed my hunting at all even. Still using bow and arrow for it.

Re: So top end damage was nerfed on bows too?
posting on these forums = useless flamebait
I'm High perception, arrow quality, bow quality and mm, now please, if you can't contribute, fuck off
You being some casual hermit hunter and getting one animal is hardly the same as trying to feed a whole village Sevenless

Re: So top end damage was nerfed on bows too?
Haven't noticed any damage drop off with our hunters. Some damage loss from not firing with full aim meters but otherwise hunting with bows is more or less the same as it was before.

Arrows that at their quality used to do 210 damage with the same usual bow now do around 160-170 up to as far as the bar loads to.
