Such an over powered skill in my life, Static Shot, devs what where you thinking? It's not even a rare skill, it stuns mobs in place and does more dmg when stunned, are you for real? No wonder the highest levels are archers, or soon to be. You only have to go ice temp and watch the archers, **** me they got it so easy it's unbelievable.

I do agree. The yellow poison effect makes them more effective than TS wizzies. Should just reduce their chance to have the yellow poison effect. Don't touch yellow poison in general just adjust that skills chance to add it.

When I play Mir I can destroy the whole floor in PT KR within 1 second.

All you have to do is RUN in , Shout Leeory Jenkins, Punch your monitor and quit mir ... its probably the best fun ive had in years.

Ok maybe I was over exaggerating but the thing that makes it better than TS is the fact they can stand back away from the mobs. Wizzy can't. Wizzy have to be In The middle of the mobs.

What at also makes this Op is the fact they won't use HP cos they shouldn't really get hit and more often than not they use 1/10th the mp of wizzies due to attuned mind.

Here we go again, there is no way u can compare Ts with static they are tottally different mechanics, wizards get a shield to go into lures and tank the **** out of the mobs, archers have nothing like that so they hit from range lol.

Attuned minds isn't really as "big" as you're making it out to be, it gives me 30 mana every 5 seconds.. I still Chug through the mana like no tomorrow if i'm spamming static shot.

Not to mention static shot is easily countered in PVP but people are to dumb and have no idea how to play taos.

Over Exaggerating your posts is not helping or doing any good so next time keep it to you're self?

Iv seen archers wipe the floor clean in PSC with this static shot, fair enough if it was a rare book but it really isn't, it is OP

So archers - the single target high damage class. Should have this staticshot? I like the skill and it's very effective. 3 archers can make huge lures and kill them very quickly and theobs will hardly move once the archers have engaged them.

My point was wizzys are suppose to be the mass killing class not archers. I am not basing this anyway on pvp purely on pve.

Why shoot it me down I am in no way trying to change things to the way I want them but to the way they have been described to me. Mass yellow poison which stuns mobs isn't overpowered... I must be wrong.

EDIT - I remember someone made a thread suggesting an AoE on these forums for archers and it was shot down saying "archer may have some AoE but it will be very little damage and long cool down" staticshot can be spammed and it's damage is significant.

Huge lures? max target it can hit is 5? and even thats at level 41 It only really effective when archers work as a team like 3-4 and even then 2 wizzys TSing is quicker?

The only reason Archers are better than wizzys atm is because the get the advantage of not having to run into the middle of mobs, this is quite possibly archers main spell out of the list thats been released on apex website wizzys haven't even got theirs yet?

Why shoot it me down I am in no way trying to change things to the way I want them but to the way they have been described to me. Mass yellow poison which stuns mobs isn't overpowered... I must be wrong. It only stuns mobs every other class stuns so im missing you're point?

Take a note on this on because it seems quite important here, dont believe half the **** u read on lomcn because people like you make people have false opinions based on over exaggerations that people make.

This Server has become a mess they have changed too much from the original nostalgic feel of mir, when it was advertised I got impression it was going to be Euro Esque with a couple new classes and maps re done and some extra maps but its nothing like euro at all atm, completely unbalanced classes and stupid sins and archers, this server would have been 10X better if they had kept it the classic wizz/tao/war imo.

I am not really trying to get the skill hugely changed. I am saying that mass yellow poison is OP obviously. Change the rate at which it yellow poisons secondary targets and it would be a start. yellow poison isn't just a flinch it's a full on 1-5 second stun so it can be as powerful (for stopping you get hit) as TS.

Attuned mind is good for single mob killing at low level when I go with a group using staticshot it saves me about 20mp (mediums) lol, it rapes our mana just like TS does for a wiz. Its pretty much useless without another archer to use it with aswell.

when will you realise, wizz currently have about half the mc they are supposed to have and none of the higher level skills.. all day you've whinged on, do us all a favour and leave the server.. sick of listening to your moaning crap tbh.

I have to say, so far, this spell is looking very broken atm.

Samuel, you stated that Archers would be Single Target damage dealers. Well, with static shot how it is atm, 2 archers can clear through any cave within a matter of minutes. This is serious AoE damage.

It's like a ranged TDB, that you cannot miss... that then goes on to BOUNCE to another person... 3 times.

Bit silly really. I'd recommend tuning the damage, but keeping the yellow pois aspect.

Problem is, nerfing it now means all the archers that are very high level would of gained a huge advantage over the lower/new archers.

it don't really matter, once everyone is lvl40+ archers and sins cease to exist.. Consider every boss fight at every server, the major ones have wizz with 70+ mc laying f wall down across the whole screen, how do sins and archers stay alive? If the f wall does maybe 60 hp a hit, even wearing a magic evasion 50% neck they still dead.. especially on this new screen size, jesus you could have f wall all the way from like 3 screens away on the old mirs.. and yet still the wizz moan lol
