    The archers have able to make 100 tricks and kill every class easily.
    Here is 1 reason: Them can't be shocked from smashes of knights, but them can shock another actors, archers, too. If knight will smash them, archers have able to shoot in bomb arrow, so knight will die, if he will broke this bomb, archer will still stay alive. Archers can shoot builder with fire arrow, then he will run away.

    If you are an archer and get hit by a knight your shot just fires prematurely/gets ruined.
    Also if the knight shields the bomb arrow doesn't stick. Also it's a bomb it really should kill people if you get it to stick to people. Builders are pretty weak, you can kill them with stabs and normal arrows easily, wasting a fire arrow on one is pointless.

    da fuq i can barely understand that.
    i think that bomb arrows are a bit strong that if you get stuck with one, it is (?) almost a guarantee that you will die like sticky grenades from halo are. i would want some method of survival though like jumping in air or having it explode in water will let you survive with a very small amount of hearts left.

    You can survive a stuck bomb arrow as knight by shielding in the direction it's stuck into you - you'll do a bomb jump off it instead of dying. The timer is pretty short, but it works and you take zero damage.

    Archers are pretty trivial to kill, I think the cries of OP and suggested nerfs will turn them back into camper-whores like they are in classic. Slash them, double if possible. Instant result.

    Only change I'm considering making to them at the moment as a nerf is reduced hp to 2 hearts, so one slash or charged arrow kills them. I dont really want to discourage them from coming out in the field though, the classic archers in towers is incredibly un-fun.

    If knight will smash you with full powa, he will break bomb arrow and then die.

    I have to agree with geti in the fact that by adding these abilities we see more archers out in the field and not camping and
    What is this??? (Sorry if English isn't your first language)

    true, but he'll die too - this is similar to slashing a knight with a cooked bomb - you generally go down with him.

    Use the edit button, and whats wrong with the water bomb going through enemies? ALL bombs do that. Just hit the ground next to him/her. It isn't that difficult.
