I seriously belief that Viking Conquest should BUFF UP the bow damage in the very next patch.
It is ridiculous that my character has 4 points in Power Draw and do 5-10 damage to unarmored enemy with every arrow hit. On the contrary, the same enemy who THROWS stones at me causes around 25-35 damage with every hit to the BODY. This is as unrealistic as it could be - RPG or not, some basic realism should be maintained, because bow+arrows are a lot more deadly than throwing stones at someone.

I don't know about the reticle though. As far as I can tell, my gameplay is used to the vanilla reticle and I haven't any problems with it.

What you should have is a file named "ui_gadgets.dds". If you want to change the reticle for all the modules, you need to paste it into the general "Textures" folder: (Steam\SteamApps\common\)MountBlade Warband\Textures, and replace the original file (you might want to keep a copy of it somewhere).

I know it is suppose to be called ui_gadgets.dds i have change the reticle before on NW but i can't find that texture in the folder

This can't be something other than a bug. I refuse to believe it's on purpose.

In multiplayer with the weakest armor available i took 7 arrow shots 2 the chest and had a little under half my health left over. Arrows definitely need a buff, unless cloth shirts were made of stronger stuff back them.

Yea i believe the bow and arrow sucks i tested it on my friend and it took like 3 shots to the head to kill him like point blank to the head

Your screenshot is from the Textures folder of Viking Conquest, right? The ui_gadgets file is in the general Textures folder (...\MountBlade Warband\Textures), not in the mod-specific ones.

Not to spin off into a side tangent, but Many people understand the power of simple  rocks. If you ask me, 35-45 damage seems about right, depending.
For example, in the Iliad, Ajax threw a rock at Hector and nearly killed him. However, at the same time, Tuecer, the best archer in the entire greek army, fired arrow after arrow at hector, and they all just bounced right off his armor.
