Btw iām killing everyone using the bow. i just canāt see any fun on it. if you search for my old posts, it was always complaining about broken pvp metas. like it was with jhebbal sag buggy claws.
Claws literally havenāt changed and weāre only ever used by people in pvp worth a lick of salt to run down people.im well aware of how good bows are but they arnt any better then anything in the current meta and all have perfectly accessible counters.
iām really curious to know what would you do against this while using axe + shield 
i can roll out of your range and shoot some arrows while you are opening. ok, you can hold you shield up and crouch and maybe run away from combatā¦ aahahaha
Who ever that is is dumb. You have dumb dumbs running straight into you instead of angled so heās getting lit up.
what about this fight? i run angled, tried to jump onto him, caught some times, but still the bow have advantage.
and what about the arrow damage? i posted a video proof. whatās your argument?
manā¦ what are you talking about??? claws didnāt use stamina, you could stack 9 poison with 3 hits and with animation bug that used to have, you could apply bleeding as well. The damage was higher too. i think you donāt know what you are talking about.
maybe you are dominating your enemies using the bow because they didnāt realise yet how broken it is. and because of that you donāt want them to change it.
i agree that all other weapons have good counters.
You donāt seem very aware of the distance the jump is on that because I see you just randomly swinging that axe to the point I canāt believe this isnāt staged
Ohhhhh that far back my fault
Also I donāt use bows typically. I run axe with throwing axe with a dagger and shield switch.
And about the arrow damage Iām staying that you are making numbers up. The max damage on a red mom with full pen (hollowbone) is infact 360 with power attack to the head. The damage is there but is counter balanced by being a glass Cannon and easly evaded
For example immediately after landing that first hit I woulda swamped to daggers and ate that archer alive as they donāt even seem to be able to dodge properly. This will cause a drain in stamina and push for defensive play on their part.
some jumps were to put some pressure on him, to force his movement. anyway axe have a small attack range and when you make sequential jumps, the other jumps after the first one seems to have a buggy range.
Throwing axes are good, but you have a stack limit and when you hold it, you will be opening your defenses.
spear is better for chase, 2h sword are good too, but they both are 2handed weapons which leaves you unprotected without a shield. daggers have a buggy range too. except for the jhebbal dagger that applies bleeding with a light attack and have a good damage, all the others are kind of weak.
Anyway man i wonāt go further this. i posted video proof about the things i said.
Bow damage is very OP at the moment and i will keep using almost only bow + axe and shield until they realise and balance out things.
You bring a shield with you for a switch. You rarley should have just one or the other and always have a set of daggers for closing distance and to apply pressure. Thatās the issue you arnt giving yourself options in that situation
OMFG. i canāt believe iām still discussing with youā¦ everyone here can make the test:
1 - open single player with a friend.
2 - get a red motherās bow, put the mod kit (+5 damage/+12% pen)
3 - get some hollow bone arrows
4 - Press ESC > go to server settings > make sure that combat settings are default (everything at 1.0 except ally damage)
5 - Make you attribute distribution: 20 str / 50 acc.
6 - tell your friend to put vitality 40 wearing heavy armor (for example flawless cimmerian set)
7 - Equip your bow and arrows
8 - Hold your right mouse button for a while
9 - Aim to the head and shot. (you have to make sure you hit the head, sometimes it looks like you got it right, but it wasnāt)
10 - tell me the result.
I have literally done just that and Iām telling you itās 360ā¦ You health sits at 560 with 40 vitalityā¦ You are literally saying you can one shot any pvp build with the bow Wich is beyond wrong. Your mad about discussing this because Iām telling you you are wrong and that you are not very good at pvp or staging videos to prove your point and Iāve explained exactly why and where you went wrong
And instead of taking the advice and trying out what people who know better your doing exactly what I mentioned above instead of trying toadapt and over come your coming here trying to get a perfectly balanced viable option for pvp nerfed because you donāt like it
me and my clan mates trains with every weapon, as i said, almost everyday to search for the hot spots of the meta.
i havenāt see anyone (clan mate or enemy) that pose any threat to me using daggers.
that fights i posted were limited to bow vs axe+shield.
Jhebbal claws do impose a real threat to archers but the thing you didnāt realised is how powerful is the mass combat archery.
me and 2 from my clan mates decimate an enemy clan with 9 people without any trouble. they werenāt noobs. they were old enemies that we go to their server to play with.
Omgā¦ You only use the daggers when engaging bows or axe with axe combo to exclusively break tempo and control the motion of the fight. You seem to be on this thing where you bring one thing and thatās it. You never just run just axe and off hand of one type you bring both and you bring a gap closer. What are you not understanding about that?
I honestly kinda thought the roar over archery was a bit unneeded. Then you posted these and all I could think was āYEP THATS OPā
