Cracker 4570 Share Posted May 27, 2012 After messing around with this... Archery buff + Armor nerf = Ranger may be OP. Understandably, archery was never even balanced, but it was always a useful backup skill. Now, given the current set up, it will always dictate fights, and melee has dropped horribly. (Apparently my friend even said Headshots can one shot at level 10~) Wearing no armor = One shot by 100 Archery Wearing leather or chainmail = Two to three shot by 100 Archery, so you get sniped before any combat is initiated Wearing iron or diamond = Too slow to fight at all. You get kited so easily as leather+ dart around you firing arrows as you can do little to nothing... Not only is it annoying and reduces the legitimacy of roleplayed armor, but some of this is plain unrealistic. Literally crawling in armor? Modern day soldiers are trained to fight with 40-80 pounds of ammo and weaponry on them, hanging from the pockets literally weighing them down. At least medieval body armors are balanced around the body so the weight isn't focused on the legs. Being out-WALKED by someone is a bit ridiculous, trained soldiers are soldiers. I think it would have been much better to either a) adjust the slowing down of the speed to one's weapon skills, so that a great warrior who has trained in combat can match the speed of a normal person B) have it so wearing armor depletes the hunger bar exponentially fast. Wearing it outside of combat will make you reach three hunger VERY quickly and you will be wasting tons of stamina and food trying to keep it on. I think it needs some fine tuning or else we will face some problems. Hopefully I'm missing something here. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

0000 175 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Just realized, I have a question: Does the armor have a weight when you are carrying it in your inventory? Because it should. Then you could just take armor off and suddenly move a lot faster.. It would make for an interesting idea where you can't carry a load of heavy things at once.

Cracker 4570 Share Posted May 27, 2012 -Snip- Also going to note that at 0 archery, a BODY SHOT can kill someone without armor. Headshots can probably take out the leather-clad.... Melee weapons are kinda useless if a body shot can just drop someone. :/ Anyone can take down anyone. The archery skill is kinda pointless since at a certain point the archery skill plateus, and beyond 50. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kote (luigimario77) 4 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I tried shooting an arrow. The sound and pull back was there but no arrow fired, yet it ate up an arrow of mine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash_Rogers 130 Share Posted May 27, 2012 one down fall. -scratch that I must have glitched into the dirt or something- And If you do not wear a helmet with your armor you are not effected by slowness which sucks because people are obviously going to abuse that part of the plugin. Arrows head shot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaerith 0 Share Posted May 27, 2012 This is getting balanced! Great job. By the way, isn't the chainmail armor too easy to craft? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Chivay 2494 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Alright, after reviewing the armor plug-in a bit... is there anyway we can jerk up the speed just a tad? Diamond and iron go about the same speed, which if extremely slow even for armor wearing. I was thinking more on the lines of, armor preventing people from sprinting and only lowering their running prowess a tad. If we could make it so that the heavy armors preventing sprinting, that would really be great. But still, the plug-in is a great concept and after some tweaking, can really add to the immersion of the server. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenodyree 2 Share Posted May 27, 2012 We rangers are now the most effective fighting force in Asulon. Lethal arrows, leather armor, little fall damage and no slow down at all. You had better watch out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
