Archery needs to be further balanced for PVP in general. Right now Archery in all forms has the highest DPS in the game, with the lowest cost of gameplay. Archery damage should be reduced across the board by 30-40%. In addition, Long Bow and Mounted Archery need their damage reduced as well. Right now mounts are too easily killed by Archeries in general. A well geared Archer will kill 3-4 players with a longbow before any of them get to him. A well geared Mount Archer can kill an infinite amount of players and never be touched.

I play an Archer and I can tell you first handle this build is far too overpowered and is ruining combat. I prefer realism, and right now it's not even close.

3-4 kills before they get to him? What game are you playing.

Stop spaming new threads about archery being OP. We have been playing this game for almost a year and we all know that foot archer is weak and meme build.
Its only strong against weak armor but if you can always just strafe back and forth to render archers practically useless.

Just wear some molarium armor or put a shield on your back or strafe back and forth. Archers are a joke.

If you are some how dying to a foot archer then the problem is you.
