Just now we have unplayable archery, count of archers is in this game comes to zero, and nothing happened to fix it.

Re: Archery?
Making archery not-op but still useful for pvp is too difficult. I doubt perfect balance will ever be achieved. It could be made useful against animals though. Hunting with bow should be easier than with punches..

Re: Archery?
For my opinion, damage reduced by shield definitely makes marksmanship non-op in pvp.
Devs must just bring back furmulas or at least quality of animals, arrows must kill hides quality - its okay, but they dont must ruin meat and bones.

Re: Archery?
I dont get why arrows softcap hide.
But sword does not?
Even though damage that hide takes when you chop it with axe or swipe with sword is drastically more than by arrow.

Maybe then people will complain rather than just abandoning archery because of a broken patch.abt79 wrote:Shh you idiot now rather than buffing ranged he'll do the same to meleeshubla wrote:I dont get why arrows softcap hide.

Re: Archery?
right now I don't think archery damage is too bad, although I think the quality ruining is pretty bad

Re: Archery?
This is still better than killing animals with basically 0 and getting alot more than what you put in. Bear+Some Boats+9001 rocks=Dead Bear of x quality, now you can only get the quality of whatever you're shooting at it.
