Weapon balance bow broken

[Skarai]

If you look at the kill stats, 99% of the players at the top of the stats have bows as their main weapon. I know bow will get a nerf, but even after the nerf everyone will still play bow. I hope that the other weapon sets will still be buffed. What do you think about that?

Bow is literally only at the top because of guild Flash Wave spammers, you take away that and bow will cease to exist, people already are using 90% staff skills in their staff/bow build, sword will have more damage skills than bow, everything is utility, which is being nerfed already to share cooldowns of spammable heal so healers won't even have a reason to use it, and it's already over three times inferior as a healing weapon compared to wand.

Yeah i think thats it, probably...if not the biggest aoe in the game so it would be getting 90% of the finishing shots but not actually doing 90% of the damage.

i dont even understand why bow and heals will get a nerf....bow skills are weak as fk heals have very high cd and and and....

very optimistic to think that the developers will balance the game

These bow pvp "masters" are invisible, by the way.

The 18% chance of getting a 3k barrier with no cooldown is also a joke. Thankfully its getting completely changed.

It's 11.5% at max, and it's literally only nerfed because dagger and crossbow users are too brain dead to turn off their poison and weaken projectiles, it will most likely never even proc against anything else, god forbid poison have an actual counter, it already hard counters health regen builds that are already trash.

Cant wait for gvg after bow shield nerf. Where the 75% of people running bow about to be on the other side of spectrum. Called flavor of the month.
