    NOTE: I wanted to name this kit No-Scope, but I decided it's better if I put it together with Archer

    Archer kit now: Punch II bow, hit someone with a shot and get the arrow back. Gravel always drops flint, and mobs drop double what they would normally drop.

    The Buff: Left click with your bow and a straight arrow is shot. If it hits a person, it deals 2.5 hearts. But you don't get your arrow back

    In someways this may be a buff, but really I find this a debuff. If you don't get your arrow back then.. its kind of useless once your out of arrows.+

    I find the straight arrow is pretty pointless, it's a four shot. I'd say you should get your arrow back, because from what I can remember, there are only 20 arrows supported at spawn.

    10 arrows, and I meant the "don't get your arrow back" only if you left click the bow, sorry if you misunderstood

    I'm aware (except for the 10 arrow part) I just don't think it's worth it. We can lose arrows very quickly if we left click.

    Archer in my opinion is not in need of a buff, I consider it one of the more powerful kits in both soup and no soup because of it's range (take out towers) and damage.

    It is powerful, but it doesn't match the power of Grappler or Ninja. I think this buff can help it

    But it's very easy to make arrows since it's combined with fletcher

    I just do not believe this buff is necessary, Who agrees?

    I think this would be a cool little buff to the archer kit, because sometimes if you are missing all of your charged shots and someone is rushing you down you just need that little extra punch to get them away from you. Question: What is the cool-down on this no-scope ability?

    Archer needs a buff but i dont think this is the road we should take , perhaps we can increase starting arrows and increase damage archers do with bows by 0.5 of a heart .

    Lol , you dont understand his statement , you have the OPTION of left clicking OR right clicking ( right click being the normal bow function and left click being his idea ! )

    No one agrees , it needs a buff just not that one .

    Perhaps you have an option of a super charged arrow, which takes a long time to charge up but deals massive damage on impact? I do think archer is in need of a buff, maybe arrows do more damage overall.

    I haven't thought of a cooldown, but now that I think about it it's quite OP, so maybe 5 seconds?

    I personally still don't see what is wrong with archer at the moment, in no-soup it is one of the dominant kits.

    I like the idea of having an option for a super charged arrow though, could be interesting.

    Just make it start out with a power 1 punch 2 bow instead.

    Also, why is this kit not in the shop...

    IMO archer is already pretty good and doesn't need a buff. Nice concept though!
