If archer was reworked, would you want to see it keep its ranged instakill?

    We could have a cool down between each shot or every few shots? And maybe we could remove the bounce back when the victim is shot from a "non-headshotting" range?

    I personally think that archer *is* annoying when the player is spamming arrows or there is an 'archer map' but really, instakill is what makes archer *ARCHER*.

    I know what I am suggesting is stupid, but....

    Don't be rude. I've rarely ever seen an instance where a headshot has caused accusatory hackusations. If anything, it's usually assassins or James that causes people to call out hacks in chat

    I'm still a bit annoyed at how stubborn certain staff were with this decision. A poll was run showing that over 75% of the community would prefer a balanced ctf WITH INSTAKILLS, but the final decision was still to remove them. The poll also had a couple hundred votes, so it wasn't a small sample size.

    Sharpness 1 iron sword is stronger then diamond sword, the last thing heavy needs is a buff, and it really wouldn't be hard at all, the armor compensates for the damage, and the stone or iron sword would balance out the damage, it would pretty much be like a normal pvp class. It's like soldier, except with hell of a lot better armor, and less spam jumping. I highly doubt lowering the damage of the weapon would make it unbalanced, it would just make it to where it can't kill every single class with ease (except mage and archer). Not to mention people who are good at pvp use this class and literally dominate everyone who crosses them. I'm pretty much getting off topic here so I guess we should leave this thread the way it's meant to be, and save this discussion for another thread.

    no sir , a stone sword with diamond armor ? does that really make sense to you ? It doesn't to me , I main the class so the slightest change in damage would change the class completely , its a class to either defend or offend . It's strong for a reason .

    Why not introduce the same thing that was done for pyro with archer? When pyro got its instakill taken away, it was introduce with the frenzy system. The frenzy system takes a lot of hearts away from the player but it doesnt essentially instakill them. 3.5 hearts per hit sounds legit, and on top of that you have frenzy mode which occurs once you double right click. If the next coder can somehow do the same thing, then archer would become more balanced. So why not have an arrow take away for exp. 3.5 hearts away from every hit, And with each hit, their XP bar increases, and when its full they have an option t0 release an arrow that either delivers an instakill or does a lot of damage. Or you can have a system where with each hit, the amount of damage gets higher and higher, just like pure element on an elf. Also reducing the armor from all chain to just head and leg chain and gold armor for chest and leggings would also be nice. We dont always have to reduce the amount of steak too, we can just lower the amount of hearts that the steak adds in and still keep the amount of steak the same. Just a proposal, but I think that this could really work.

    Actually it kind of sounds normal, if not a stone then iron, that way buffed heavies can't three shot everyone.
