Why isn't archery accurate?

Post by smokybarnable »

Gm archery, 100 strength, gm tactics, surpassingly accurate power heavy crossbow and an alligator still kills me. Archery was never like this.

100 strength, but whats your Dex how slow did you go? I kill lich, titans, dragons, all solo with a Gm bow. Oh and btw we are all gona call you Gator bait. Just so you know. Get together with two other archers all with GM heavys and shoot the same PKer at the same time. It'll make you feel much better. . .Gator Bait.

25 dex but I read somewhere it didn't make much difference in archery, but I was literally nodding off between shots it is so slow...maybe I'll increase it and give it another go. I'm tired of being pushed around by alligators and mongbats.

You read some outdated information.

This bug has been fixed, and archery is now super slow at low dex, as it should be.

Get 100 dex, go take on an alligator, and report back to us!

Yea really need to couple archery with a second skill, unless youre purely made for PvM...My PK is archer/fencer. I open with a heavy then rush with a fork/kryss...sometime when I use to group PvP id stick with a bow for some decent ranged dmg, but its really not the best as a primary skill

At 25 dex, I can probably run and take a shit inbetween shots on my stealth pk.
