I've noticed that archers in bannerlord, whether it be sp or mp are far better than in warband- and in many cases OP. Reasons for this include:
-Cav bumping makes the player being bumped lie static with his shield down for several seconds
-shooting is much easier
-shields have been made less op aka headshots and footshots are possible (no more forcefields for shields)
-heavy archer armour is incredibly OP AND they also have in many cases (Khan Guard, Fiann)
I decided to make a video to show of how much better archery is now which is both good and bad, good because the actual archery animations are sooo much better but they are a little OP. Would love to hear people's thoughts on whether archery is no too easy.
Edit- archery sounds may actually be better in warband.
Suggestions of how to fix archers/archery-

Suggestions of how to fix archers/archery-
- Drop its armor a bit
- Make it so archer players must account for arrow drop when aiming
- Lower movement speed to below heavy inf
- Nerf passive shield protection (Needs a massive nerf) so that shields don't have any invisible range outside of the model while not being actively held up, shields should barely give any protection if it's not being held up.
- Potentially remove shields and 2h from some archer classes
