Bow damage nerfed twice already and we still see the rivers of cloth user tears.

Don't make yourself a target and don't make yourself vulnerable to ambush, you will die... the weapon used makes no difference.

^ Spoken like a guy who sits in sneak for 4 hours waiting until his targets are fighting at least 5 times the opponents so it's safe to snipe them.

Errrybody shud sneak or zerg OR BOTH! Makes for great gameplay.

But then again, I just want TTK fixed - not snipe. If snipe from stealth didn't hit for 3/4 of an average persons health (including medium and even heavy armor users occasionally) I'd just detect pot and blow you up.

you do realize a lot of snipers go DW or 2H also? meaning lots of them CAN fight back.

heck you should see me in 1.6, and how i was pre 1.6

I wish there were more players like you, but I guess if there were. AP would be worthless.

Lol, just lol, and on another thread you want AP gone, and to be able to loot your fallen enemies bodies, hahah in that case, you would get rekt constantly and your corpse would be looted all the time.

No offence, but it defo sounds like you are a classic case of `oh I died, you must hack`.

Great comedy posts though, makes me lol:}

did an arrow make the universe , or magic ?

Interesting question, although unrelated to the thread you started.

It was actually both!

The world was created (stabilized) when Trinimca fired the Heart of Lorkhan into Nirn with an arrow. So sure, there was some magic going on, but an arrow (one might even say a Snipe) led to the world as you know it.

Seeing level 30's 3 shot vr14's. Stupid and tacky, nerf the bow.

This literally never happens. If I get multiple CF procs I can probably 3 shot someone though.

you should have been around for stamina builds pre 1.6. they were utterly worthless like you seem to want them to be. Bows were...ok... at the time, but not good:)

you would have loved it.

Tap the same movement key twice really fast.

I'm just talking from experience here, 98% of the times I survive the stealth assault the sniper is dead within a few seconds. They might whip out a 2H but it's clear they never anticipated having to actually fight on even grounds

Those who can fight properly, full respect. But then why would you sit in stealth and gank people? Can't see how that is fun pvp ^^

I usually hang around ganking spots but would never stealth, I want ppl to see me because I want to actually fight player vs. player

I'm sorry but that is impossible, nothing can ever kill such a combination with 3 attacks. Ignoring your dodge comment, that would mean each attack would have to do some 20K through block, and such an attack isn't available to players.

If they're dodging, they wouldn't be hit at all by arrow attacks. Not a single Bow skill goes through dodge.

Making things up and exaggerating does not make your point any stronger, quite the contrary.

The reason I go for quick kills when I can is because I am sat in a field between a respawn point and a battle, if you get drawn out into combat the next reinforcements will join the fray and you will get gang banged. All my fights are 1 v X, it's allot more risky than zerging and to me allot better measure of the ability of the individuals involved.

You can call it ganking, I have died to such attacks but do not take it so personally as others.

Can we just close this topic already?

It's nothing but flame bait.

The first thing i need to ask is ARE YOU A WEREWOLF? If so Lethal arrow and Poison Arrow will hit you for a 50% damage bonus

I am going to guess you mean Lethal Arrow as it is the 1 second cast hard hitting shot. the first thing to know is that if he was sneaking and behind you or to the side of you and attacked from sneak it is considered a sneak attack and does double damage but considered a full 100% damage critical attack. Now if the follow up shots crit they are going to be huge as well. And factor all that in if you are a Werewolf your going to take another 50% bonus damage penalty.

If you actually hold block when teh attacks hit they will only do about 20% of teh damage but if you are out of stamina they will do 90% damage + all effects

Aw, how cute. I remember when I thought there was a point to trying to educate people on the forums, too.

Keep on doing your thang, buddy.

Make defensive stance reflect all range attacks not just spells.

Give those snipe macro fkers a taste of their own medicine WHAT.

Ganking can be fun sometims. I miss solo ganking hibbies on my minstrel in daoc. between mez, speed, stuns, ablative chants, ablative spellcrafting and stealth nothing could take me 1v1 if I got the drop on them. then later when trials dropped and that skull-proc'ng life-leaching dagger came in, even if I didn't get the drop nothing could take me 1v1.

pretty hard to get that experience again outside of this game, as other large world pvp games either have little to no stealth options, or only have it on one class.
