Archery buff - disregard AR

[wreckognize]

Yeah, archery sucks against high AR targets. The arrows and bolts do not penetrate AR very well.

Since you can't throw purples with a bow equipped, it needs to do more dmg against high AR targets to balance out.

Of course you can't simply raise the damage of bows, or they'll end up being too powerful against low AR targets.

I think this is a problem as well. Same with against a Mage. If the Mage is good enough, he has time to cast a greater heal in between shots from a regular bow with 100 dex

i mean that's normal, i just think it needs a buff primarily for fighting dexies with heavy armor since they cant also throw purples

Bows should be great for leather/cloth targets and crossbows for anything above. Crossbows were originally designed to punch through armor. I would say that if any tweaks were done I would make bows more of a pvm tool and xbows become a more pvp centric weapon.
