The following rule on line 327 in ruletypes.h may be defined on p99 as it is in the stock emu source:
Code:
RULE_REAL ( Combat, ArcheryHitPenalty, 0.25) //Archery has a hit penalty to try to help balance it with the plethora of long term +hit modifiers for it
Mods affecting chance-to-hit didn't exist in classic, so that one's a no-brainer. |

this would explain why archery is so awful here while throwing is absurdly good, assuming p99 devs never fixed it

Alecta also confirmed that archery damage is currently only 80% in PvP.

IIRC (dev box isnt unpacked yet, cant verify), archery is doing 80% of it's damage in PvP.

It seems archery damage was initially reduced to 66% dmg in PvP during the LoY expansion, then increased to 80% during GoD. At any rate, it should be full dmg during p99's era.

Another reason throwing is doing more damage than archery is probably due to:
Code:
uint16 MaxDmg = (((2 * wDmg) * GetDamageTable(SkillThrowing)) / 100)
whereas archery max damage is calculated as:
Code:
(WDmg+ADmg)*GetDamageTable(SkillArchery) / 100
(ADmg being the dmg value of the ammo used)
