    A few things differing from KAB to KAG about the Archer:
    • Right click to use Knife, does quarter heart of damage facing the enemy, or 3 hearts from behind. (Maverick is a derp!:p)
    • Arrows don't go as far.
    • Getting arrows from trees is still about the same, but you don't eat the tree down to nothing, at the very least it falls over and turns into logs for builders.
    • The three charges of arrows are slightly different: Low charge does 1 heart of damage from above and half heart regularly, Medium charge does 2 hearts of damage from above and half heart regularly, Full charge stuns and does 2 hearts from above and 2 hearts regularly. If arrows of any charge loose too much speed they seem to do half as much damage.
    • Hiding (holding S)doesn't' work as well. :(
    • Fire arrows and Fire Satchels, be very careful with these, lighting things on fire is a privilege not a right!
    I covered the base ground here, help me to fill in any gaps I missed.

    Enjoy the King Arthurs Beta!:)

    Good list, though about the back-stabbing hit, it does 3 hearts from behind only if it's done to another archer. If you use the knife on a knight from behind it only does 2 hearts.

    Don't forget satchels/fire arrows?

    Also, I'm not too sure if the "hiding" [holding S] is a good thing or a bad thing right now, some comparisons:

    [ KAG ]
    > Body goes to corpse sprite
    > Identified by head not being in the "fallen down" position, head would always look up when hiding.

    [ KAB ]
    > Body goes to a more "hiding" sprite, not the corpse sprite
    > Head is in the "fallen down" corpse position, so it might be easier to trick others.
     
  7. There's a flying glitch with archer

    theres a flying glitch with everything. Also reporting a flying glitch isn't really relevant is it? its not a skill or difference that was implemented no purpose.

    I just checked the archer code ("Base/Entities/Characters/Archer/ArcherLogic.as"), it appears the "2 hearts on the back of a Knight" is false. The code says the archer deals "3.0f" (Assuming 3 hearts as a float variable) no matter what when dealing a backstab.

    I thought it was 3 hearts no matter what too. When I asked about the dagger the first time played, the person said: "The back stab instakills any builder or archer. It does 3 hearts to the knight, though."

    Also, you cannot shoot fire arrows on your own, a fire source (lantern) needs to be under you, or you need to have it in your inventory.
