GRaaaaah!! don't mention the pbaoe, the wounds still hurt after all these years!!!
and if you're going to let arrows do DD (instead of bolts) because they shoot in arcs, then you should play fair and also let rifles do DD. I mean, sure, the arc of a bow is somewhat more useable (idd, a bullet (especially those simple metal balls those muskets use) also flies in an arc, just a way bigger one and thus less noticed) to shoot over barricades or stuff, but have you ever tried shooting a person with an arrow while he's standing right behind someone else (and isn't bigger than the first person)? Idd, it's impossible, just as with the rifle (unless you simply shoot right through the first person of course).
Anyways, in Daoc arrows were DD so I guess that'll be the case again (and thus rifles will be too). And if they do choose to make those projectiles bolts... well... then let's hope they do enough damage to quickly take out a tank before we can shoot the softer targets
