FAO Archers

[aika]

Aika thnx for pulling off when thoose retarded albs came and stunned buffripped fucked about on my thane Tjokko when u was about to pwn my sorry arse

np Didnt know it was you, just saw you got mezzed so I pulled off.

 

[Tesla Monkor]

I'm still trying things out, so far. Average normal shot damage is up and feels faster than the old fashioned regular shot. Critshots are down in damage, though. Haven't tried the magic shots yet, they take too long to use in regular rvr.

I ran a few rounds in the iRVR area and saw not a single soloing enemy - everyone is two or more. Seems to be the default way these days.

 

[>.< Pooned]

its infiltrator paradise atm, except some adds here and there, so many walking rps around!

Casters that got a clue dont got a problem either in 1 vs 1...

problem is ... most archers are 3+ xD

Get mos5

See stealther at max range = 100% chance to do crit+pbshot before he is in melee with u. slam/sidestunn fz whatever and go again ;c

 

[Septina]

archers are the most pussy class to play , rofl too sceard to be seen or go near people just incase they get a boo boo , this applys most for rangers

Friky (necro) RR3

I lol'd.

 

[Gustav]

I lol'd.

I repped you and lol'ed myself at his amusing postage.

Archers are still easy meat, the bow is ok tbh, nothing majorly uber. Its about time we were able to crit through BT and brittles tbh. Makes casters a little more scared to roam around griefing soloers.

I tried the bow thing but went back to melee spec and put bow back to a low 33. Liked the sword too much.

 

[Gear]

Archers are no more of a problem than they had been in the past. The only problem yesterday was a certain infi who claims to be after fair fights and soloing etc grouped constantly with a mincer. Oh well...

 

[Gear]

Anyone can see the hidden message?

lol the irony of some1 that adds on some1 already fighting a bd lol

 

[Maeloch]

Suppose main problem is archerzergs rather than bow love itself, although been a while since I got hit for 873, 770, 589, etc on a caster.

Take the fight to them, pick em off unstealthed on inc if don't like em. Peeps stand around on the bridge and moan when they get fragged. No need for anyone to do that anyhow even on solo visable, end pots + hastener speed can out run most grps so get out there.

If I have added on you matey, you really had it coming.

 

[Infanity]

hahahaahah u where the one waiting for 15 mins to change realm to hib so u could flame me and bowie

actually we been duoing all day

Shows how much of an idiot you are if you still dont realise there is no cool down timer ;]

 

[technasia]

ahh the whine, you know before the patch i didnt even touch my ranger as i didnt have a chance to win vs most enemys anyway, even if i used lots of stuff, you just get out damaged, now rangers get some love, maybe a bit to much, but its always the same, they boost a char to much and next patch it'll go down, but either way, from the moment you guys feel some heat around you you go into whine mode, before i only had a slight chance to win vs an infil or a sb, now we might have some more chance altho i wont see that big a diff like before but anyway its always been like this and i doubt it'll ever change :touch:

 

[Kinetix]

Please stop with the faggot bridgecamping/gay gangbanging now as u are more than competative 1on1

so, you zerg down soloers in groups or pugs then talk about competitive 1on1....Major lol

The issue isnt the love, its the way they use it baby! Add on everything that moves, ping arrows into anything in range, ruin everyones fights, restealth repeat for ever. Its just play completely devoid of any skill - i'm thinking of dusting off my ranger - if you cant beat em ...

Anywhere withing 7000 units of the bridge is just a complete addfest, so you either get stuck in or get very frustrated.


Only couple of the old timers seem to be leaving fights, Ileks (sp) and couple of others (soz ileks nearly f8 killed you lastnight).

 

[Andrilyn]

Like Maeloch said the problem is not that archers got love but the problem is now you get all kind of stealth zergs running around with like scout, scout, scout, infil, mincer etc.
You would think now that they got some love they would have the balls to try and solo/duo for a change.

 

[Septina]

Havent actually had the pleasure of facing an archer yet, will see tonight when i get home from work what all the fuss is about.

 

[eble@work]

scout got love, hunter/ranger got gutted go figure.

and archers arn't fotm unless 3/4 grp'd, which i haven't seen yet myself.

hunter is by far better than scout, cause you can spec both bow and still have very good melee.

They dont need to be grouped, they just need to be in range - no need to be in a group to coordinate shooting arrows into an engaged target.

They still fine 1 on 1 as far as im concerned on the eldie, just there are a few more out, who dont give a shit about anything.

Tbh im getting a bit fed up with listening to your anti-stealth propaganda, great choice of Mod FH! now can we find someone to stand in our corner?

What corner is that? The good for nothing assasins corner that has to run in groups of 4+ to kill soloers?

/points septina to go stand in the same corner with Crom

 

[Caylan Raal]

Its like the old days again where you can get ya ass handed to ya on a plate at range...but once you engage in melee its all over for the poor sods

Didnt have too much of a problem with the scouts i fought last nite, except those who decided to add when alrdy engaged - but to be fair that was true of practically every class last nite

serves you right tbh less zerging moshi

Propaganda? As I hope quite a few people will give me a bit of credit for, my mind is open and i'm prepared to change it - there are stealthers I have a lot of respect for, there are stealthers like yourself who are just playing to have fun and have a laugh and pile into any fight - thats ok with me too within the context of this game - I understand it, just dont expect me to love you for it.


Feel free to post or pm me the stealther code you wish me to fight for, the corner you want me to defend, the mighty, great and lengthy tome that is the stealther manifesto. And though that is tongue in cheek - if you feel im doing you a diservice, and ive made inaccurate or untruthful posts, then point them out as part of the thread - thats what the forum is for ... isnt it?

Anyhow, youve got censi to champion you.

*edit
forgot to add, though im a mod, i'm still allowed to have an opinion - this doesnt magically change. What you will find however is that I wont under any circumstance abuse that position to modify, delete or otherwise affect posts that are made using those mod powers to influence a thread direction to suit my own posts and pov. Dont get things mixed up. Having an opinion and arguing for that, is quite seperate from being a moderator, as it should be.

 

[Kinetix]

If I have added on you matey, you really had it coming.

Maybe your right, was kinda unfair for bd with 3 or 4 pets or was it the rm behind him?
oh well next time ill try to engage them with just one hand on keyboard....good enought for you?

Dosent differ much from ppl runing in fgs killing soloers right Sept? :touch:

 

[Gibbo]

My scout in this patch is specced the same as the last patch which is 50 shield, 44 thrust, 35 stealth, 18 archery :england:

Feel free to ask Shadowlost, Infanity, Cerishas, Lasttime and a barrage of other respected soloers how often we kill them.
Yes, we do kill you, with pleasure, as often as we can, but it's quite obvious why.
