with mos5 you finally have a good chance of wiping the floor with assasins, while being bow spec.

The archer patch just brought all the dusty old rr7-8 archers that got rpleveled just before NF hit.

Nothing changes in daoc, it just goes in cycles ;)

i think its great, archers have for a long time been a class which unless completely negated their main speccline were fodder for most other ppl. this ofcourse unless they grouped up in big bunches. Now though they pack a nice punch and ive seen some really cool tactics (everything from mocing arrows, to the standard slam and spamm). Hopefully the playerbase will adapt soon and try to move away from the gangbang behaviour and we will have some great fun.

too lame
try hybrid temp on a shar with 50 bow lolz

what do you mean? :)
I played my friend's rr7 scout a bit, that has a very average template, and mos5.. dont think I lost to an assasin 1v1 yet. you just see them from miles with mos5, enough to crit shot and 2-3 pb shots, when they come to you at like 20%, you still have slam,fz,purge,phaseshift,ip,rr5,WH etc.. :)

Thats just to name a few of the useless ***** stealth zerging atm.

Theres about another 20 on that list.

Rangers seem to be the worst for doing it aswell, Kinda weird ;o

Just got limited experience with them, but think it sucks you can't see the arrow :mad:

Other than that I think it's good that bow got some love, just don't need every archer to team up and zerg/add everything :mad:

Every single ranger i have seen is a leeching git so far. You would think now the class is more competitive more would want solo fights...

I think its nice that the only way to be a competative archer is to ignore archery. I however dont like that almost every single ranger(all archers but mostly rangers) moves in packs of 3-4 :p Seems like there is more solo scouts out then before i "retired" last time.

Well rangers are kinda bad in melee now and they are the worst acrher archery wise ( due to their basic class design, no shield+slam and no pet) so they zerg to compete.

What they should do is suck it up, reroll and get on with it. The class will not be fixed in a near future and for them to think they will find any enjoyment out of the class while zerging 5vs1 is just stupid. Even an idio+ will find that boring in the end, specially on dyvet.

Thats the harsh truth for you.

Idiot ;D

I wont pop a good guy infront of bufferers group, if i see a idiot like you i will.

I also know most of the stealthers on bridge and we share the same respects of not adding and so on so pull the other one sir:(

This new archer change is beyond retarded and hopefully Mythic will realise this and nerf it soon. :)
Been out a bit on my SB today, not found a single soloer, almost every NS/INF out there is grouped with an archer m8(s) and just mindlessly zerg everything down.

randomuselessranger125 hits you for 600 x4, you die.
randomnewbpoppingshade213 rolls on the floor laughing at you.
You Release.

/qtd

What i dont understand is why the archers feels the need to group up now when they can easily drop most shit before they even reach them. ^^
Oh well, gonna borrow an rl m8s rr7 mos5 scout and repay the favour over and over again. :)

1) u are in hibernia
2) it's insta-rvr
3) u're not moving from the bridge itself
4) it was announced with such a patch
5) why are u complaining, most of these rangers should be easy for u, including myself

solution, go buy cleenex or leave teh bridge

If it's Pudding it just goes to show how much Mythic actually test things, level 49 ranger hitting a lvl 50 sb for 700dmg a shot with bow....... ok. :D
