One thing that annoyed me about the skirmisher class was the lack of high tier throwing axes, something to give you a choice of something different...
Jarids themselves are powerful enough that I can effectively use them to stay on top of the leaderboard on hard mode (except against twigs) so I don't see why we need a /more/ powerful version of them around, all we need is just a variant of a throwing weapon at the same level.
What I'd love to see in the game would be a higher tier throwing axe type weapon which does a significant amount more damage but on the other hand is less accurate than a jarid (harder to get headshots/hit at extreme range but bonus against shields).
This is just my opinion though, I haven't played properly for a couple of months but I'm assuming the situation here hasn't changed all that much.
It's true that there're a lot more javs than throwing axes, and I'd love to see some more of them, but javelins are in all fronts better than throwing axes. Both have bonus against shields, javs have pierce damage, while axes have cut, javs are more accurate, and more predictable. The only thing Throwing Axes have better is pure awesomeness (dare I say swag? ).
So yea, better axes would be nice, but other than cosmatic, kind of useless.
I was never here, you saw nothing...
