So when using ranged weapons on horseback its now just a gamble if you hit or not, if you ride by an enemy like 3m away and throw/shoot at his centre its just luck if you hit or not. How about instead of aiming for ranged weapons we have a diceroll ?

Finally the cav players can feel how throwing feels for inf. You are completely right, all throwing is gamble.

Good stuff. Git gud.
Don't javs on horseback sometimes deal insane damage also? I'm not a cav player but as far as i remember their damage can be very high. Is this still a thing or it got fixed?
I was critical of the changes to throwing weapon accuracy from the start
Depends on your speed, you get a buff by riding fast.
I don't really mind that accuracy is all over the place when you are moving as long as you'll be accurate when you stop moving. Pre 1.5 was ridiculous how accurate you were when you were jumping, running and riding.
Edit. I stand corrected. When trying to play as horse archer, there is currently no way to use bow on horseback effectively. After seeing how captain community lost their **** when 1.5 dropped, I guess this will make horse archers even more useless in captain.

I know it doesn't have much to do with accuracy, but still in this matter do you feel that this buff is something that can be abused or a fair mechanic?
Because i'm afraid that if throwing javelins on horseback becomes more precise and consistent/reliable, it could open up to a new era of spamming throwables on horseback.

I agree. I laughed too reading this. I know the feeling lol.
I think its a good mechanic because you take a huge risk by riding towards somebody in full speed, cant turn as fast and the damage increase by speed also is applied to you. I dont want javs to be more accurate on horseback then they were before this update, i think they were absolutely fine.
It's a miracle to me how they manage to worsen balance with every patch when there are so many good suggestions to improve it...

But overthink the punishment of throwing while walking. Its just gambling. And standing still while throwing is almost never an option since you loose missile speed.
for big roleplay linebattles it can be fine
honestly I think its a good nerf. using ranged accurately while outmanoeuvring everyone else just isn't right. maybe javelins but whole bows and arrows shouldn't be able to be used properly with cav. its super annoying to deal with and op most of the time
Ah yes, completely nerf a class into the ground because you find it super annoying to deal with? Not how balancing works at all.
It should be more accurate at lower speeds than it currently is.
half of the classes got barely any counterplay vs it
Annoying mechanics shouldnt exist, because we play games to have fun, and being annoyed is not fun.
i thought being annoying was the most awaited feature of this game !
Ok i am going back to my batcave
P.s more RNGD more Nubijuki ( tales says that he's lost in Paris hunting infected people with his white horse )
