    Two bow-oriented classes (three if you remotely consider Pyro) seems like enough. Don't know how another one would fit into the game very well.
    This is just floating out ideas though. Thinking based on what arrows are supposed to do can't hurt, right?

    If you mean make this new class and keep the old archer, everyone would just use the old archer

    I agree that the arrows could could be a great buff for elf.

    The arrows would be annoying asf, I can see it now. It'd probably be worse and more obnoxious than headshots right now. *anti-instakill peeps glare at meh*

    But, this would probably be better for elf and archer be left alone, free classes should be easy to master. IMO.

    Also, THX 4 TAGGING ME FIRST Xdddd

    "Goodbye (successful) bowspammers"
    Hu3 Hu3 Hu3...

    Anyways, I'm not exactly sure how this even works XD. (haven't seen or played 1.9 snapshot (if that's what you call it))

    Archer can probably end up like a long range chemist support class with the potion tipped arrows. The glow arrows seem useful for spotting out hiding players. (I have a dream, wait that's the wrong one. I have a question: are you able to hold the glow arrow or any other item in your left hand while shooting with your bow in the other? If so COULD THIS MEAN ARCHER HAS 3 HANDS?!?!?!???! (Plot twist XD))

    Btw @pookeythekid thanks for tagging me :3

    Agreed, long-range chemist is the last thing we need. xD But ya know... some fun stuff would be kewl. Granted archer should be easier to master, but I just think there should be a little bit of regulation for the pros (such as that one person, Chhimichanga I think the name is).
    /yw c:


    @Gh0st__ @Sir_Inge 'Aight here's how it works. (Btw my friend was over at my house and he started playing the 1.9 snapshot, I just watched him; I never even touch snapshots because I'm too lazy to download them and see the new features xD.)

    Ghost: Yeah, you can hold absolutely any item in your left hand. Also while operating a bow. Do archers now have three hands? Either that, or they now use their mouth to pull back the bowstring. Or maybe they take off one shoe and use their foot...

    Sir_Inge: Not quite. Indeed you can right click to operate your left hand (lol, a little backwards), but that's only if your right-hand object cannot be right-clicked. CaptainSparklez, in a video I watched with my friend, demonstrated that if you were mining with a pickaxe in your right hand, and you had torches in your left hand, you can right click to place torches, and left click to attack blocks with your pickaxe. But things which take right-click priority over the left hand, in this instance bows, override the left hand.

    Maybe they could remove headshots but instead if you hit someone from over 30blocks away all your arrows get refilled and all of them turn into a random potion arrow. Instead of the 128 arrows though it could be 32 or 64

    Does that go through blocks though? (and in any case, the glow effect looks way cooler xD)

    Make it so that if the headshot arrow does miss or is not far away enough, it uses a normal arrow instead. And to all who say that Archer can't be complex, I'm sorry, but have you seen Medic?

    It's only a x-ray for like 5 seconds before you have to shoot them again. Bcuz the effect wears off really quickly.

    She meant the f3+b thing, the hitbox debug mode.
