    Actually it is possible. You just have to time it right. Obviously you do get damaged if you do it incorrectly. But you can still pick it up mid-air. Great way of gathering arrows if you have quarters nearby. Fully charged arrows are harder. Just need good reflexes and timing.

    The only way i found to remotely close to be catching it in mid-air flight, is that one of the opposing archer's arrows get's lodged into you, with that glitch, while you're jumping.

    I've also tried this "arrow catching" the legit way, it doesn't work.

    Incorrect. It does work. Tried and tested technique. Many people use it.

    Multiple ways, getting some on to shoot me, then i try to "ride" the arrow while pressing R-click to pick it up, getting him to shoot above me while doing the same. So many ways.

    Nevertheless it does work.
     
  7. hmm? i just run at the arrow and try to get a bit ahead of it so it just misses me or jump back at the same rate as the arrow flying at me then try catching it. works for me 30-40% of the time as a last chance kinda thing in battels XD

    Before you say it is a "tried and tested technique" supply evidence. Make a video with you doing it

    I used to throw a few arrows in the air and catch them before they hit the ground, to celebrate at the round's end or just to kill time.
    However I have tried it recently, and noticed that it doesn't work anymore... or at least it's not easy as I thought it was.
    Next time I'll go Archer, I'll try.
