Agree. Poison arrows allow let exp pot throw. To make archer pvp viable.
Increase attack speed by 15% too. Even as a PvM, archer gets 30% of the event score a dexer gets. I understand archery has range and that it should be less than a dexer because of the defense bonus of being further away, but it's too far unbalanced right now.
There are 0 PvP archers. That's unbalanced pvp.

Ive always believed there needed to be a buff to this skill. This skill should be looked at by itself and adjusted.

I also believe that archers should be modified. the additional archery should go back into tactics when using a magical bow. and exp pots should be usable with a bow equipped.

A revamp would give me a whole new reason to work the archer I made for the sole purpose of reserving what might be, the best archer name ever:
Bows Before Hoes

No, if I need to come and explain why I can but I rather not waste my time.
In short archery is incredibly hard to balance pvp wise on Ultima Online due to stealth, groups, different dex levels, movement, firing speed and firing delays after running.
There is many knobs to turn and turning one effects all the others.
I agree I mean we all deep down love archery but its not best for the server to go down the impossible path of balancing archery respectfully

archery tact anatomy resist magery eval + healing or medit
precast flamestrike by scroll and shot only vs 0 ar 0 wrestling bards, better if they're afk. you'll fullfill kegs of lesser cure and nightsight potions in few days.
i agree with @GimpCent but some months of unbalanced viable archery isn't better than 2 years of requests in terms of fun?
Even if they only adjust misses and dmgs vs high ar ppl will be happier. very very few players will play archer tank mage or use archery over/with alchy,stun,fencing,taming imho =)
