New archery skill impaled arrow

[chrisdj]

Impaled arrow:

10% chance of arrow impaling target, causing a 2 sec stun level 85 skill, basicly same as bm's intimidate skill

[solopixy]

it will be nice, support, but..........................
doubt that will happen

[Darkdingus]

Hmm.
------ GRAMMAR NAZI ALERT ------

What would you attain by planting one arrow into the other? I mean, impaling people with arrows seems like a rather good way of killing them, but owning an impaled arrow?

[chrisdj]

im·pale (m-pl) also em·pale (m-)
tr.v. im·paled also em·paled, im·pal·ing also em·pal·ing, im·pales also em·pales
1.
a. To pierce with a sharp stake or point.
b. To torture or kill by impaling.
2. To render helpless as if by impaling.

I hope your Nazi salute doesn't slap you to hard on the way to your head Darkey! lol

but seriously archery does need something to counter all the latest buffs, I feel this skill would to quote a Batman 'put us back in the game' archery has never had a stun mez or daze skill I think it's high time we did!

amen

[chrisdj]

amen indeed

Yeah methinks it will need all the help we can get!

[hotshot64]

Can already burn, poison, bleed, and blind, may as well stun too.

[chloe]

no support, we have blind instead of stun, and imo bow users do not need stun with it

[Excellence]

I support this because Blind is not nearly as good as stun

[chloe]

both have advantages and disadvantages, it all depends on environmental factors

[chrisdj]

I'm sorry but blind is next to useless for mobs and only slightly annoying in PVP at least with stun u do stop someone from attacking you! not the so called nearly impossible that blind carries with it ! and lets not forget it does nothing to casters ! they know where there clicking! lol

case in point i've just been dueling Gracey she beat me hands down each time without breaking a sweat against any good bm/tank/regener we haven't a hope !

By the way Glitch thank you for fixing bladdow!

[Master]

Buff archery!

I was speaking about the verb's tense, NOT the verb itself.

Technically, Impaling Arrow (an arrow that impales) sounds better than Impaled Arrow (an arrow that is already pierced by something)

[chrisdj]

Ah but she's just off pilgrim and not upto her best yet! and still managed to clean my clock with one pet behind her back lol and even she was surprised she won every duel It wasn't even close! lol

maybe get rid of the blind skill altogether! in favour of the impaled/impaling arrow stun skill, something needs to be done here, much has been made of archers ability to be most diverse build, but jack of all trades and master of none has really weakened us as a stand alone class! I think we are out of balance with the other main classes, we also have no access to the gravebound skill or anything like slice and dice!

thanks for listening (hopefuly) glitch

[Tsurguy]

Bm's do not have access to gravebound either. Blind is fine, it makes melee/pet hits worthless. If you can't beat someone don't blame the skills build your toon better.

[chrisdj]

WOW build my toon better! why didn't I think think of that! after four years 4 months of being an archer! you solved my problem! sigh! (gee I hope you recognise sarcasum) i'm not surprised you want us to keep blind who wants an archer that can stun eh? also i would propose that this skill is not applied to multi attacks so as not to make us to Op'ed in arena

[Tsurguy]

Archers do NOT need stun, you can be an op archer without it. You're built like a tank of course you aren't going to win every duel.


Because I can't beat Cyress means bms need a buff right?

i trade my blind arrow for stun/mess arrow anytime

we could be able to use bash skills now too, since glitch want bow users to be hybrids, we get OWN skill, why not allow to use bash and improved bash as well?

[chrisdj]

Tsurguy, you cant beat cyress? maybe you should try building your toon better then? lol

but seriously I didn't say i wanted to beat everyone! but I do want a chance to beat some classes! as it stands any good bm/regenier/tank will take us and we have 2 skills we can't even use normal farming (blind and arrow rain) I think adding stun in exchange for taking out blind would greatly help us! of course I understand that others just don't want that compition!

[Tsurguy]

No, archers are fine. Just because some classes beat others does not mean they need a buff. That's how games tend to work some builds beat other builds which beat other builds. Deal with it or reroll.
