A shield for archers in Support class - _Sophie_ - 19-04-2013 Example from google [Image: 58201.jpg] Archers got mainly A bow and arrow and a 1 handed weapon, a shield in support class slot  (light but can resist arrows/javelins at hands) Its either a shield or your class you choose (Medic/Engineer) like the man at arms class can but a smaller (craftable by house) shield Good for: Protect hands/Half of arm (depending on size) Protects an archer a bit on Shield maidens/Veteran huscarls No arrows/Javelins/Axes block you in first person mode Bad for: More work for Devs Less people die with bow in hand (Looting arrows/bows from dead body's will be less) Re: A shield for archers in Support class - Maroon - 19-04-2013 Sounds good, as long as they don't get any Shield skill, and only small shields, to keep it balanced. Re: A shield for archers in Support class - Jalau - 19-04-2013 No! Archers are strong enaugh! Just pick up a shield from the ground! Re: A shield for archers in Support class - Yvain - 19-04-2013 Replace the barricades or kits in support slot with a lovely small shield ? I like the look. But I'm not sure we really need it in NI. Re: A shield for archers in Support class - human_being - 19-04-2013 Less cades and less medikits. A stront point against your idea. Re: A shield for archers in Support class - FF_Skywalker - 19-04-2013 Hey, Maybe you add a poll? And who need shields for archer? Like Jalau said pick them up from ground. Re: A shield for archers in Support class - Hypernoma - 19-04-2013 I'll interject and say no, archers know how to get themselves some shields (hybrids) and that's that. We're not adding archer shields.
