    The point here is that archers are good and all, but you're better off being a knight. There are about 3 main situations that may call for an archer: 1) Almost all of the rest of your team is composed of archers. Arrows storms are freakin' nightmares. 2) The enemies are only building out of wood, or are building a structure that would be collapsed with a fire arrow. 3) You're either pretty freakin' good as an archer, or there are only like 3 players per team. Any other situation, you'd be better off as a knight or builder. Face it, archers are getting the short end of the stick. You can say that they're just fine if you can avoid damage, or run away successfully, or be skillful, but the problem is that it's hard to get skillful if the game tells you archers are bad. A new person trying out an archer in a big match will quickly get disheartened (if not camping) and switch classes. Archers need something to balance it out. You say they're a support class, but their only support is in certain situations. Yes, they can tip the balance of a knight battle, but they're quickly killed if the opportunity presents itself. They need a buff. Anything to tip the odds for a class that only gets used by unwitting newbs and skillful pros.
