    I think the utility button for builders and knights is spacebar, the archers do not have a utility. Perhaps adding one in that changes firing mode would be great, the game used to allow archers to basically arrow rain (which was one of the funnest aspects of being an archer to me and when yall added in the grappling hook back in the day.) perhaps when pressing space bar it would allow you to do the old 3 shot one after the other kind of thing but only till a certain degree as it would be used solely to allow arrow rain.

    if you read this then I am surprised :)

    After reading a bit more on the forums i believe this was debated about to some degree a bit ago, if so then i am sorry for having wasted someone's time here.

    Well, i was up for more then 24 hours when i posted this, but i would probably be just as happy if the other 2 arrows in the 3 shot that is in the game now wouldn't disappear i guess which is what used to be in the game if memory serves me right.

    if it created some problems in the game like server lag or something then i totally understand why the other two arrows in it got changed to have a limited distance.

    I think if it just changed between the special arrows that would be cool

    Tap F. Even if this was the case then it would have to be the same for knight which wouldn't work.

    Yea. I tought about telling him that but then i forget about it.

    In adittion to the server issue, that would make the archers pretty spammy. The reason of the scatter shot was to make archers being capable of defending themselves in mid-short range. Not to snipe a shitton of arrows without even aiming.
    Im totally agree with the shooting style swaping. But if devs changed the arrow system to this and it stayed as it is, its because there're many salty people that wouldnt want the old machine-gun style back

    utility
    1.making a trap,
    2.dagger attack
    3.disable bombs, kegs or mines. kinda meh i gues.
    4.health recovery. slowly gaining health when pressed.
    5. making a pointless salto or a dancemove just for fun.
    6. switching to a differnt bow. that attacks slow but hits harder.
    7. you move faster for a few seconds, but after that you are slow and cant use grapple for a couple of sec.
    just some random stuff you can add as utility i gues, it just have to be balanced out.
