Yea, that is funny they failed to address that anyone can bus ya with a longbow. I mentioned in another thread that I feel longbows, if they stay as they are, should prol be governed by a primary. Cuz just having 121 or even 110~ is pretty crazy. Still, ofc, gonna keep making long bows and handing them off to my high str bros haha. It was OP before, and it's still OP. There's almost no way you can protect your horse unless you are THERE to ride away, even if you are surrounded by guards, you can find a spot to get shots off, 2 people max even if armored. And that's IN TOWN haha.
Another thing I'll say again, the cross hair aiming (non arrow tip) really makes archery a fucking joke ez , esp with shit like long bows. I can't for the life of me figure out why they added that. It's just like point and shoot. THERE'S NO MYSTERY. NO TECHNIQUE.
But yes, I truly believe longbow should at least require 100 archery to even pull, and probably require another 100 of something else. Like you said expert archery (tho I think you were talking about something else.) A long bow is basically the pole sword of ranged combat haha. NO DOWNSIDE as long as you can pull it.
I'm biased cuz I'm not trying to roll some derpland hi str char, tho. And a bow, a melee wep, and a long bow is just too much shit to switch in a fight, for me ( esp counting coming off a horse, if that happens.)

Maybe SV just wants every mounted player to wear steel horse armour and ride around in first gear all the time…
That's why I like up N. I don't care about being fast and Jotuns eat LB arrows esp if they have armor on. The only real vulnerability is da zerg, but 1v1 it's bbq.

Is it true that Jotuns have natural piercing resistances?
I would say absolutely yes. I think they resist everything? But yea just take one and shoot it naked and then shoot a desert or whatever. I'll feel dumb if someone comes and proves me wrong, but I've at least done a little of that, and it SEEMS like they are taking considerably less dmg, like (maybe I'm stuck on % cuz the other thread) 15/20% even.
+ I'm usually taking 20s and 30s w/ incis armor when I fight MAs. It's like lululul. But that's not w/ long bows.
Short, inconclusive real world exp:
