It’s just another example of the game mechanics actually making a difference when pvp is involved.

Can anyone tell me if any of the blue gang figured out how to optimize bows on p99 or was it purely a red discovery?

It tried it on blue.

It isn't worth it.

Even with the perfect gear. Max Haste, Primal Bow etc...

A. You can do a hell of a lot more damage via Melee

B. Skill plays a big factor when hitting the only boss mobs that utilize AoE (to make this worth it) 240 archery vs 250 melee expect misses

Speaking of skill I tried for LoLs on an SK Orge Shadow Knight and in PVE ... it is pathetic.

Seriously Whiff Whiff Whiff.... SKs only have a 75 Archery skill

Skill doesn't play a factor in PvP.

C. You can't double or triple hit with archery

D. The huge delay on the ax makes the difference and you can't even use it on something like ... I don't know... a ranger. The closest long delay weapon for a ranger is the Earthshaker.. that thing is only 70 delay vs 150 and it is not really easy to find. Last one sold was on blue by Tankiee on 2021-07-06. Ranger in Melee all the way.

E. Arrows aren't unlimited (especially for SKs and Warriors) and when was the last time in a group a warrior was allowed to just sit back and fire arrows as oppose to be a main or secondary tank.

Using any of this on blue is just ridiculously silly. I think earlier in this thread a Troll Warrior tried vs Trak and the damage was piss poor.

So yeah this effects Red server and PvP and who knows it probably was part of classic and because it only really affected PvP it probably was never noticed and before Archery really shined with Luclin.

I do think the easiest bandaid that NO one will care about is just make the Ax None/None ... it was really only meant to be vendor trash.
